"Channel in Channel out" is one of the many reasons why I'm so proud to have released two albums on Karaoke Kalk. Marcus Cotten from Portland is the artist behind "Channel in Channel out". He released this extraordinary album called "The Author And The Narrator" the last year.

Portland: I remember the Reed college with Momus, this huge swing hanging from the enormous ceiling, me getting vertigo and catching nausea from flying so high. I remember a teacher who came to me talking about the writer Georges Perec, after he heard my song about Perec's book "Tentative d'épuisement d'un lieu parisien". The tranquil and almost Swiss atmosphere of Portland, close to the Suisse I lived nearby in southern Alsace.
