This double CD contains 4 tracks based on Hemri Pousseur's 8 Parabolic Studies (8 Études Paraboliques) which were created in 1972 at the WDR studios in Cologne.

The first mix (not re-mix) was a re-interpretation by Pousseur himself. It laid the foundation stone of the edifice. unlike his 70s mixes, this one was created digitally.

The second mix is Robert Hampson's - quite nervous of the master's reaction, who was present during the set. Robert, who holds an exhaustive knowledge of electronic music from its origins and of all its aspects - even of the more obscure ones - gave a personal but faithful interpretation of Pousseur's studies.

Another degree of alteration was highlighted by Philip Jeck, who created a massive and powerful set, adding sounds from other sources (which is totally allowed according to Pousseur's original concept).

And finally, Oval: According to the process that is quintessential to his work, Markus Popp could only produce a piece far removed from its sources; since it is within sound itself that all sonorous source passes through the ovalprocess, thus becoming ovalmusic.
