Danse Macabre
An early incarnation of Disjecta Membra from 1987-1988, solo/DIY/home-recording experiments of Michel involving Casiotone, guitar, spoken word and various 'found-sound' noises and percussions. Project shelved in 1988 when Michel became a member of Nösferätu, and was resumed in 1991 following the band's collapse. The name was changed to Disjecta Membra in 1993. Danse Macabre '91-'93 may have also involved past members of Nösferätu (?).
On Danse Macabre and Nösferätu:
“Neither of these projects resulted in any noteworthy output, but I mention them as they were central to Disjecta Membra’s genesis. The earliest demos of “Cathedral” and “Third Song” among others were recorded at this time under the Danse Macabre moniker”
- from 13 Questions with Disjecta Membra (Jan, 2006) on Cathedral 13 Radio, USA
Cathedral and Third Song appear on the Disjecta Membra album Achromaticia, which also features a track called Danse Macabre.
