A Thousand Points Of Lite
Catching up with the Mille Plateaux record label and its quiet music for repressed dancers
 
- Marc Weidenbaum


In Pulse, December 2000.

 

(excerpt) On first approach, Terre Thaemlitz's Interstices sounds like a futurist field recording, 31 tracks of seemingly unrelated snippets of found sound: industrial noise, exotica percussion, a few syllables of a pop song. The album's lengthy [sic.] liner notes supply the glue (Mille Plateaux is steeped in theory, having taken its name from a book by scholarly critics Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari). Thaemlitz explains that the various sounds have all been subjected to a similar process, which seems to involve removing the odd split-second of sound in order to reveal underlying disconsonances.
