Martin Rev
1980
Lust/Unlust - Infidelity # JMB228

Martin Rev

Premier Solo album, pratiquement en même temps que le premier LP "rockabilly" de Alan Vega (la pochette mentionne l'année 1979, tandis que 1980 apparaît sur le disque). De la musique "électronique", calme mais pas sereine. Martin Rev ne 'chante' que sur un seul morceau : "Baby o Baby".

Martin Rev, Cheyenne 2007

Re-issued (available Jan.2007) with 3 bonus tracks

The new re-issue of "Cheyenne" features 3 bonus tracks that are out of this world. Can you tell us a little about them?
REV: The first bonus track Pony, was written on a western theme I was playing with while doing some tracks with Charles Ball, who produced my first Album on his Lust/Unlust Records. We had run into each other years after that album was made, and he wanted me to go back into the studio with him and just record. We did a bunch of stuff, some of which came out on the CD version of that first album.
Durango was played in one take at Ric's studio while working on Suicide's Why B Blue album. It was totally improvised off of the basic riff.
Coyote was sometlhing I cut while recording tracks on my own in a studio in NY called Czarist Productions. It's from the same sessions that produced Little Rock and Wings of the Wind


What equipment did you use recording the "cheyenne" album?
REV: Equiptment used included the Prophet 5, Roland Compu Rythm CR 78, and a Kurzweil module on some tracks like Coyote and Wings.

See Me Ridin'
1996
Roir # RUSCD 8220

Martin Rev, See Me Ridin'

Disque très réussi, que certains ont qualifié de minimalist power pop (tout un programme!). Le son de ses synthétiseurs -électronique mais pas techno-, les mélodies, sa façon de chanter en parlant, lui donnent une image un peu excentrique, décalée, surtout quand on pense au mur de son de Suicide. Roir dit de ce disque : "A l'écoute du dernier dique de Martin Rev, on pense à : David Lynch, Buddy Holly, Chet Baker, Phil Spector, Bubble Gum Rock, Teen Rock, Pop Rock, Power Pop, Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits, Mr. Rogers, Dr. Suess, Retro-Nuevo, Guided By Voices, Sebadoh, Legendary Pink Dots!". On peut aussi penser à Tati ... un farfelu sympathique.
