La Mort De L'Hippocampe. Behind this project is J�r�me Fontan... who sadly passed away last year. Of course he is known for his elektro project Porn.Darsteller. That was ten years ago. After Porn.Darsteller stopped he focussed first on music for a silent film (El Sexto Sentido, Spain 1928) and after that on La Mort De L'Hippocampe. 250 numbered white vinyl copies

La Mort De L'Hippocampe is something very different from Porn.Darsteller. There is not much pop in this music and there is not much elektro in it either... it has experimental, industrial
and classical sides, all sounds are done with analog equipment like Minimoog and tape echo, and acoustic instruments. This album is somewhere between cabaret, Die Todliche Doris and Sch�nberg�

This project was much more of a performance group centered around J�r�me Fontan then a studio project. The LP was planned to be a co-production between Enfant Terrible
and Verbascripta, the label founded by J�r�me. The label is continued by the other members of La Mort De L'Hippocampe. A second album of La Mort De L'Hippocampe will be released
later, also as a co-production between Enfant Terrible and Verbascripta.
