In Un homme sensible, Octave Mirbeau tells the story of a murderer who, in the name of world harmony, is determined to rid the world of "all organisms unfit for a strong and harmonious life". This inspired Nurse With Wound, which, as an illustration, gives us here a new piece of unpublished music.
French writer and critic, Octave Mirbeau (1848-1917) is notably the author of Abbé Jules, The Garden of Tortures, and Diary of a Chambermaid.
A British music project formed in 1978 by
Steven Stapleton, John Fothergill and Heman Pathak,
Nurse With Wound (now Stapleton's variable geometry project) is an essential figure of English
experimental and
industrial music since the early 80's. With more than 150 releases, alone or with other musicians, Stapleton has swept widely different musical styles, from industrial music to mambo, through electronics, improvisation, electroacoustics, with a lot of humor.
