12 Ono Cocteau




The ono poemes series consists of four releases all using recordings of different french poets , Paul Eluard , Jean Cocteau , Louis Aragon and Guillaume Apollinaire. Each poet was paired with a musician and that musician created a sound environment to go with the poems. Danny Norbury : Jean Cocteau is the first of the four french surrealist poem releases on ono. i did start writing a press sheet for this release but it never got finished so i'm not going to post it here. The music speaks for itself. you can download a track from it here at moistworks ,has done an article on this project if you would like to read it, it includes an in depth interview with danny posted on Tuesday, July 08, 2008
