about

I have been willing to record bullgrogs and cicadas to make a records for years... In august 99, I could get at last an MD recorder... but before I could get hold of some toads, I first recorded various incongrous noises from the bathroom of a house I used to live in Rangoon.

The sound of toothbrush is essentially rythmic. Opening and closing your mouth produces a wah-wah effect... almost melodic... Many bathroom have an excellent reverb. Future toothbrush freaks will notice that the sound is dryer with less or no toothpaste at all, while it becomes quite juicy with lots of foam. All is a question of balance.

The fist version of "Toothbrush / Brosse à dent" was created withe the precious help of Djengo Hartlap in Paris (July 2000). The present version was mixed in May 2001 at Artlap studio, Paris.

This track also contains a melody produced withe the sound of small balloon for kids when it deflates (MD take from Myanmar), toothpaste sleeve notes read by Erika Forzi (recorded in London) and gargle performed by Naing Naing (recorded in Yangon).

The name of this track is a play of word with "brosse à dent", french for "toothbrush" and danse (dance), by Seb of the radio show "Coasmic Chaos Mayonnaise" in Clermont-Ferrand.
