HOGE TAPES: Though it’s tempting to look to nostalgic underpinnings, thinking of Minus Worlds as the remnants of digital culture is more appropriate. Tracks like “Brash Beach” and “Skybox Sky” evoke their virtual equivalents, and they’re sequenced as one would move through a videogame itself: zone to zone; space to space. While the cues and signifiers are distorted and magnified for total recall, they are misshapen and bent into shapes akin to those familiar with the techniques of 0PN, Takao, or James Ferraro.
These spaces Jim Nopédie builds from the ground up, then deconstructs – the “Deserted Cave”, “La Casino Engloutie”, a “Greenhouse Glacier” – are familiar enough to us in their very real forms, but it’s hard to know for sure how much our conceptions of them are now shaped by, and kept from us, by our digital equivalents for them. This is not old music repurposed for looking back; this is retrofuturism cannibalising itself, its own past, its own “Save”, to create something far more future-concerned; future-obligated.
