E-Man LP

HRLP002 - E-Man
 
E-Man was the first project by Geir Jenssen (later of Bel Canto and Biosphere).

This project, lead by Jenssen and featuring guest vocalists Ragnar "Spiss" Larsen and Frank Jensen, released its only cassette on Likvider in 1984. Originally, it was meant to be a c46, but it was re-edited to a c30, meaning four cuts had to be left off. These tracks are now back on the list, and the LP also features an unreleased, early bonus track!

The songs show a multitude of styles, from hard-hitting percussive EBM-influenced tracks to jangly electro to pure synthpop to the proto-ambient soundscapes one might have hoped for from the man who defined the genre in the early nineties. All fresh-sounding and surprisingly modern, and all brushed up from the original mastertapes by Geir Jenssen himself and cut by Veronica Vasicka of Minimal Wave, NYC.
