"Canada's Pierre Crube a.k.a. Pierre-Simon Weisskopf played in some electro-pop-bands until he got sick of repeating the same song structures over and over again. He decided to stop doing band-business and started out doing tracks in a new way all by himself. The result is the album Immediate False Relief out now on Angelika Koehlermann. Most of the tracks are no longer that one or two minutes. Somehow a similar aesthetic to the wonderful Michiko Kusaki album by Anne Laplantine, that was released a few years ago, but totally different at the same time. Instead of low-fi-cassette recordings all tracks are done with digital accuracy and seem all to be constructed on Simon's laptop. A nice term to describe the music could be something like 'data-pop'. The song structures are still hearable on some tracks -- some songs even feature Simon's melancholic vocals, while the instrumental tracks are full of romantic desires and wonderful melodies, that stay in your head for a long time."
