Zn'shñ's 2nd cd is available on Odiolorgnette: http://www.odiolorgnette.com/discography.html

High frequency trajectories and delicate glitchy micro pulses between Japanese gagaku, digital machinery and Morton Feldman's string quartet colors. Elaborated as a peculiar ceremony for desertic places, this second opus by the dual electronic unit Zn'shñ (Elvire Bastendorff & Franck Smith) displays a suite of radical sonic manipulations conceived for nocturnal ambient usings.

Composed & performed by Elvire Bastendorff & Franck Smith (electronics) – Recorded in September 2009 – (48:37) – [01]-[06] II1 (9:01) II2 (10:27) II3 (6:04) II4 (4:05) II5 (3:11) II6 (15:49) – *conceived for nocturnal ambient usings, do not play at loud volume – Produced by Zn’shñ
