about

One-side-only LP - 19 minutes
recorded on December 21 1976
at Studio GRRR by JJB

First historical recording by Un D.M.I.

Limited edition of 85 numbered and signed copies
Cover entirely handmade by JJB
Sold exclusively by Dizonord in Paris
but worldwide distributed by The Pusher Distribution

Très toxique is the first ever recording of Un Drame Musical Instantané as a trio, three weeks before Trop d'adrénaline nuit, but already a year and a half after Défense de by Birgé Gorgé Shiroc (Nurse With Wound List). On December 21, 1976, it was the first time the three musicians met together in the basement of Studio GRRR. They had no idea what they were going to play, but the session was full of energy.

Half a century has passed. Birgé creates the cover of Très toxique entirely by hand, using a white pencil and two acid-burnt images he had created in 1969 and printed two years later by the art printer of Picasso, Dubuffet and the Collège de Pataphysique. The 85 numbered and signed copies of this limited edition have only one side of 19 minutes, already a collector! But can anyone tell me what this music sounds like?
