Machine Danse - Pierre Henry (1973)






Yes, Pierre Henry, master of tape trickery, worming into your noodle with an album of varied moods - abstraction, percussion, erotic electronics, and the title track, which is in more of a psyche rock mode but wilder than his Greatest Hit. ‘Sacrifice’ is especially pleasurable, being quite devilish, and filled with agonised cries as someone who fails to appreciate PH is simultaneously burnt, whipped, stretched and poked with a sharp stick before being shut into an Iron Maiden which, as you know, is almost as bad as being forced to listen to the band of the same name.
