The second release in the Perihel series is one of the most famous electroacoustic compositions by Iannis Xenakis, La Légende d'Eer.
As legendary as this piece is, it exists in different releases - wrong sample rates, digitized backwards. This version uses the 8-track-version that Xenakis himself presented at Darmstädter Ferienkurse in August of 1978.
La Légende d'Eer is where Xenakis integrated his stochastic synthesis sounds for the first time. It not only became a milestone of electroacoustic music but is also an important reference for noise and industrial musicians up to the present day.
Mastered & cut by Rashad Becker.
Includes insert with liner notes by Reinhold Friedl.
