CD Esoterik

CD ESOTERIK was a record store from the early 2000's in Montréal, Quebec, Canada. After a short 15 year or so pause to rethink, we decided to finally re-open the store as a podcast. Formely on Ste. Catherine Street in a basement beside a comic book shop, now fully of the ether.

Episode 3: Store is open. Welcome.

After the dogs ate episode 2 it became clear that in order to meet the demand we needed to rush out a third. Turns out time-pressure is the best creative constraint. Number 3 features lots of hard panning, heavy playing, non-complex complexity and mad side-chaining. The question remains: Is there life on the earth? Esoterik podcast says: "YES" We listened to: A. Intro theme 1. Ahmed Essyad – Lecture pour bande magnétique (1974) part I 2. Otto Willberg – Reap What Thou Sow 3. Joan La Barbara – Voice Piece: One Note Internal Resonance Investigation 4.

Makers – Don't Challenge Me 9. Michael Finnissy – Gesualdo: Libro Sesto: I Z. Outro theme Endless gratitude: Chris Wrench Zïlon Pierre Martel
