Original audioMER. release, 100 copies in stock. (No digital release) Artwork by Robert Beatty (of Hair Police fame) Le Jardin des Chemins Bifurquants is the first full length album of Chicago based electronic music artist, producer and DJ Jamal R. Moss. Educated by House legends Adonis and Steve Pointdexter, he’s been following a singular musical path, producing a gritty futuristic meltdown of House, Free Jazz, New Age and Noise. For this record, Jamal worked with the concept of plants having a religion, and the question of what their way of worship would look like. This resulted in a dark deep-space overture with raw synth stabs, extreme pitch-shifted textures and hypnotic tribal rhythms—somewhat reminiscent of Sun Ra’s interstellar electric keyboard explorations. Le Jardin des Chemins Bifurquants is an unclassifiable tour de force that is oozing with profound cosmic meaning. For the artwork we invited visual artist Robert Beatty (of Hair Police fame) whose work has graced the record sleeves of Burning Star Core, Family Battle Snake and Oneohtrix Point Never. QUOTES "Striking... never settles on a single path, a short chirping sequences flutter around dark, ominous chords and robotic thrusts" - Matt Wuetrich, The Wire "Every moment of the record feels focused on spewing out ideas and striking sounds, both serious and playful. A fantastic, unexpected and provocative little glimpse of Hieroglyphic Being’s parallel world of alien dance music." - Chris Trowell, Foxy Digitalis
