Domaine Poétique

About

Domaine Poétique operated in the late '80s, crafting mechanical soundscapes from the confines of cassette tape. John Hudak and Jeph Jerman, enigmatic figures in the industrial noise scene, channeled raw field recordings and harsh textures into their compositions. Releases like "Great Many" and "Exhale Slowly" emerged from Sound of Pig Music, a label known for its relentless pursuit of experimental audio. Their work was relentless, a barrage of sound that was both functional and dystopian. On the fringes of the industrial landscape, Domaine Poétique collaborated with labels such as Nihilistic Recordings and S.J. Organisation. Each tape a visceral exploration of noise, a metronomic assault on the senses. The 1989 release "There And Then" stands as a testament to their unique vision, a soundscape where each layer of noise is meticulously constructed yet chaotically delivered. Their output was short-lived but impactful, resonating with the few who tuned into their frequency.
