2010 release. Life Out of Time the selective combination of the first two Ilitch CDs, Hors Temps/Out Of Time (2004) and Lena's Life & Other Stories (2007), rearranged and reorganized to create a multifaceted album. Minimal synthpop, punchy rock, unusual popular music . . . as Ilitch's music comes directly out of his states of mind, not taking only one path, it can be dark and merry, difficult or bouncy, satisfying different audiences. He consistently associates his music with imagery and tells stories with wide influences, including Philip Glass, quality popular music, contemporary music, Pink Floyd. . . . Ilitch is the work of mostly one person, Thierry Müller; since the '70s, he's been using unconventional instruments with a heavy use of electronics, adding new wave, krautrock, and cold wave elements to create relevant, bold, sharp music. Limited edition of 215 numbered copies.
