Frank Bretschneider also has a new album due out in
October on Mille Plateaux titled _Rand_. It's
one of his best works, full of very quirky, minimalist
funk and ambience. Funk typically is "hot" music, but
Frank's interpretation of it is ice-cold and somehow
all the better for it. His music has an alienness that's
very distinctive and fresh-sounding. I recommend
everything he's done.
