About the Artist
Momus writes: 'I discovered Adam Bruneau (alias Oliver Cobol) when the young Georgian sent me an intriguing record called '8 Bit Christmas' towards the end of 2001. I was with my friend Toog in New York when we heard it, and it became our favourite record: melodic, cute, full of nostalgia for the artificial landscapes of 1980s computer games. At about the same time, on tour in Detroit, I met John Talaga (alias Sir John Fashion Flesh) and heard the amazing, radical deconstructions of his group Fashion Flesh. In Tokyo I'd been talking with Sony about making a Playstation game about Shakespeare, and suddenly I realised that these young unknown musicians were perfectly qualified to make this concept into an amazing pop record for my label, American Patchwork. And so Super Madrigal Brothers came into being. Adam, the 'new-fangler', made 8 bit versions of renaissance tunes, and John, the 'mangler' deformed them. Encompassing both sugar and spice, melody and dub, the results have exceeded my wildest expectations. I truly believe this record to be the 'Switched On Bach' of the gaming generation.'
