Velodrome
Au Velodrome 141
Velodrome is the duo of Krishna Goineau (electronics and vocals) and Jordi Guber (electronics and programming). Krishna had been performing with Chrislo Haas and Beate Bartel in Liaisons Dangereuses. Krishna and Jordi met in 1979. After they moved to Brussels, they formed the short lived Metropakt, and later they re-named their project to Velodrome. Experimenting with the latest Roland machines, which were equipped with MIDI, the duo found a musical challenge. In November 1987 they recorded three songs, 'Au Velodrome 141', 'Glassfabrik' and 'Capataz' and released them on this EP. The record is striking, dynamic, challenging yet accessible. Recently, the release has become much sought after by fans of techno, electro, minimal synth, and avant-garde music.
