UK magazine The Wire publishes an interview with Paul Dolden in its March 2003 issue (#229). The empreintes DIGITALes label is completing the production of 3 new discs by Dolden who just finished the impressive task of remastering all his works. A first CD, Seuil de silences, reissues 3 works from the original The Threshold of Deafening Silence (from 1990) with 2 unreleased mixed works. The original edition of L’ivresse de la vitesse (“Intoxication by Speed”) (from 1994) was also entirely revamped and will soon be available as 2 distinct albums.
