From the ashes of leading experimental outfit Contrastate comes the self-named srmeixner project. Stephen Meixner was one half of the driving force behind Contrastate until their demise five years ago, and his latest project is a vehicle for him and various collaborators; the line-up is ever changing, with Stephen calling on whoever he feels is right for the music he is working on at any particular time. Few acts working in the area of electronics/experimental music come close to achieving the richness and diversity that srmeixner creates. Live electronics and field recordings are utilised to create a sonic soundtrack to an apocalyptic world, and this is the logical step on from the music that Contrastate created. After a few singles and the 2003 debut album "Between the Lines" on the prestigious label Dirter Promotions, we are proud to present "The Dictatorship of the Viewer" - inspired by the 2003 Venice Biennale. The core of this track was initially composed and structured together with Adrian Morris as a live piece which was first performed February 2004 in London and then later extended, added to and re-worked.
