Second album of dual electronic unit Zn'shñ published on French independant label Odiolorgnette

Five months after its discographic debut in April 2009, the dual electronic unit Zn'shñ (multi-instrumentalist/composer Franck Smith and artist/sound-activist Elvire Bastendorff), publishes a second opus, simply titled "II".

Focusing on specific electronic works and "high-end" noise-manufacturing, the new CD contains high frequency trajectories and delicate glitchy micro pulses between Japanese gagaku, digital machinery and Morton Feldman's string quartet colours and was elaborated as a peculiar ceremony for desertic places. Directly following "++" and also published on French independant label Odiolorgnette, "II" displays a suite of radical sonic manipulations conceived for nocturnal ambient usings dedicated to inquisitive minds and sophisticated noise esthetes...
