The Faust vaults through Jean-Herve Peron's eyes. Songs, sabotage and tender strangeness sit side by side, a personal cut of the krautrock legends' boundless, unruly tape archive.

LP version. Over the years, Faust has become many things, distinct as fingers, yet united as the hand that forms the fist. This series of new LPs on Bureau B sees each living member of the legendary 1971-1974 line up present their own interpretation of the Faustian myth, working alone or with collaborators to create new material that reflects their contemporary vision of what Faust can be. Since childhood, Jean-Hervé Peron has embraced creativity wherever he finds it. Whether duetting with the sound of his footsteps, collaborating with cement mixers or experimenting with whatever instrument he can get his hands on, play is at the heart of everything he does. This new album gathers ideas, memories and unfinished projects accumulated across his whole lifetime. Its tongue-in-cheek subtitle, "Maybe Of Interest," offers a typically Peronian joke: MOI can suggest a certain self-confidence or egocentrism, yet the subtitle gently undercuts it, revealing the vulnerability, humor and self-awareness that run throughout the record. In fact, MOI is anything but solitary. Credited to FaUSt, with the "US" deliberately capitalized, the record reflects Péron's belief in collaboration, friendship and collective creativity, bringing together a wide network of musicians, engineers, writers and performers from across the extended Faust family. In fact, more than twenty people contributed to the recording sessions, making MOI as much a collective endeavor as a personal statement. Recorded over two winter weeks at Schiphorst studio in northern Germany and deftly combining the contradictory forces of meticulous planning, free improvisation and chance discovery, MOI draws equally from childhood memories, Fluxus principles, dadaist humor and deeply personal experiences. The resulting album moves effortlessly between musique concrète, avant-pop, jazz, spoken word and experimental electronics, united by Péron's curiosity and irrepressible sense of play. Throughout the record, Jean-Hervé Péron presents FaUSt as a living network of friendships, ideas and creative exchanges.
