Genevieve Pasquier was already known from her contribution to the industrial-power electronics formation Thorofon but as solo artist she has been active for some years as well. Eventually she made noise influnced industrial (‘Don’t Think I Am…’) and soundscapes (‘Virgin Thoughts’) and later on she moved more towards minimal elektro (‘Pulse’, ‘Fairy Tale’, ‘Lines’). Her unique enchanting voice and her mastering of various aspects of electronic sound showed an artistic and above all unique sound. Before she was signed by Ant-Zen and released her debut cd Soap Bubble Factory there, various different vinyl releases, an LP, and a split with Bastards of Love were released. These are all sold out for some time now and therefore it is really great that those interested who prefer to listen to their music on cd now have the possibility to do so with Virgin Pulses on which all vinyl releases are compiled. The nice thing is that the tracklist is in chronological order so one can follow Genevieve on a journey through a world of sound and notice how she developed into a very original and trendsetting artist. Her music is perhaps not easy to digest for some, yet anyone will surely find it fascinating. The voice of Genevieve Pasquier doesn’t let go easily, it crawls under your skin and together with the confronting electronics it is an important part of the overall sound that is being created. Sometimes it is quite accessible, such as the pop alike ‘Today the Disco’ and also the new ‘Blitzkrieg Baby’ songs reflect.
