In the interstitial zones, the shadowy alleys between membranes, the lawless, demilitarized spaces between genres, bonds are forged and boundaries are lit up with spirit. Consider:From 1977-1986 the supergroup Telephone electrifies France with five albums of rock-punk-pop poetry.Author Michael Menche, who first heard these mesmerizing anthems as an exchange student in a Citroen 2CV in 1983, writes a musical novel, Teletoile, incorporating original lyrics in English for 16 Telephone numbers.Z Sheet, an embrace of insightful, instinctive musician/producer Jaime Garamella and indie-rocker werewolves and brothers-in-arms Kevin and Kyle Andreas, re-imagines 5 tracks. Telephone’s classics are transformed, Menche’s lyrics are let loose, and “Teletoile: A Flight of Five†startles listeners with unforgettable alchemy.“It sounds like The Pixies. Kind of.â€What is a musical novel? Read an episode and listen to a track. Repeat. The brain tingles with narrative and song as characters strut, slide and pose and take center stage in a private/public fantasy. Between the eyes and the ears, between the novel, the record and the play, between 1977 and 2007, this is an interstitial affirmation.If you purchase this CD or digitally download all 5 tracks, you are entitled to a free electronic copy of the Teletoile manuscript, which is seeking a publisher that understands e-books and new media.
