Luc Ferraris Presque Rien No. 1 (196770) and Socit II (1967) stand among the most radical works of the twentieth-century avant-garde. With Presque Rien No. 1 (Daybreak at the Seaside), Ferrari pioneered the use of untreated environmental recordings as complete musical material capturing the sounds of a Croatian fishing village at dawn to create what he called a soundscape. Stripped of manipulation or conventional composition, it marked a decisive shift toward sonic minimalism and ecological listening, influencing generations of experimental artists.

Mastered & cut from the original analogue inch 2-track master tapes by Rainer Maillard and Sidney Claire Meyer at Emil Berliner Studios.

Limited and numbered edition, featuring original artwork and a newly designed, beautifully crafted collectors sleeve with new liner notes by Bradford Bailey, and pressed on 180g vinyl.
