about
Originating from Niort (France), Benoît and Lionel JARLAN create PTÔSE in 1979. They quickly found PTÔSE PRODUCTION PRESENTE indy label to release between 1980 and 1983 about fifteen tapes become today some real collector items/ Ptôse also takes part to many samplers and become unmissable into the self-producing international network, then quite active. The band is today the perfect example of the french minimal synth current of the early 80’s : weid music, great covers, limited editions... At the end of 1984 the AYAA label released the first Ptôse studio album "Ignobles Limaces". The american illustrator Mark BEYER did the cover that perfectly fits to these “French Residents”. Third re-release orchestrated by Ph. Perreaudin (Palo Alto) PPP K 005 + PPP K 017 allows to discover for the first time on CD two mythical tapes: Hand-made Electronics (1980) and Le rat d’hôtel (1983), signed by the (very) mysterious Ericka Irganon… User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
