About absent music

Long before ABSENT MUSIC became the name of a record label, it was the pseudonym of Jan Van den Broeke for his private minimal wave-and-other experiment-like project which he had put created in the mid-1980s, next to his involvement in the cultband THE MISZ. ABSENT MUSIC released 2 cassettes: ABSENT MUSIC FOR ABSENT PEOPLE (1986) and CHEZ RENEE (1988), the latter being the soundtrack of a video and exhibition by Renée Lodewijckx. They both belong to the best kept secrets of the Belgian minimal wave of the 1980s. ABSENT MUSIC can also be found on cassette compilations like MAD IN BELGIUM vol.2, INSANE MUSIC for INSANE PEOPLE vol.14, CORTISOL (ZNS tapes) and HOMO SEXPIENS PROJECT(3RIO tapes).
