RELEASE DATE

Marc Richter
aka
Black To Comm
released his debut record 20 years ago. In 2023, he is still busy releasing music under various disguises and is currently signed to the Thrill Jockey label. To celebrate this anniversary his own Cellule 75 label is re-releasing some classic out-of-print vinyl albums that originally came out on the defunct Type and De Stijl labels. After releasing the critically acclaimed
Alphabet 1968
on the seminal Type label (
Grouper
,
Jóhann Jóhannsson
,
Yellow Swans
), Richter chose De Stijl for this 2012 album.
Earth
is a 2009 silent film by
Ho Tzu Nyen
, one of Singapore's foremost visual artists. After hearing Black To Comm's
Alphabet 1968
, Ho Tzu Nyen invited Richter to accompany the film at Berlin's Asian Film Festival, Unsound in Krakow and several other art biennials and music festivals around the world. Includes full color lyric sheet and poster.
From the original De Stijl one-sheet: "Richter's already formidable expressive power stretches over all of
Earth
. Reflecting the countless cyclical forces that make up, oh, more or less everything we know and are, the music on
Earth
is bracing, lovely, bustling and still, and at times bittersweet, a commingling of sensations and emotions that can't be neatly separated from one another. (
Earth
is complex, as you know.) Guests on
Earth
include
David Aird
, aka
Vindicatrix
, contributing startling vocal work;
Renate Nikolaus
on an array of instruments and noise devices;
Rutger Zuydervelt
(singing bowls); and
Christopher Kline
(singing saw).
Earth
is Black to Comm's seventh album and his debut for De Stijl, following the acclaimed
Alphabet 1968
(on Type) and last year's vinyl-only collaboration with
Mike Kelley
of
Destroy All Monsters
(on the En/Of label)."
