 I found two links about this. One http://exclaim.ca/News/krautrock_heroes_faust_invite_world_to_make_their_new_album_their_own" rel="nofollow - here that says The new LP will arrive via Krautrock specialists http://www.bureau-b.com/" rel="nofollow - Bureau B , which explains the album is actually pronounced "Just Us." The album also comes with quite the concept, as Faust "have laid down 12 musical foundations, inviting the whole world to use them as a base on which to build their own music." and an additional link to pitchfork http://pitchfork.com/news/56854-faust-announce-new-album-j-us-t/" rel="nofollow - here (that doesn't say a whole lot tbh) Safe to say what we can take away from all of this is that Faust is releasing an album called j US t but pronounced 'Just us'  Now that I think of it - this way of approaching things reminds me of Hip Hop, where certain beats are used again and again by upcoming artists - only they tweak and polish the 'borrowed' material making it into their own thang. That's essentially what's going down here, and everyone's invited to make their own collab with Faust!

Interesting idea. Of course any time Faust makes a move, I'm interested. ------------- My other avatar is a Porsche It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle if it is lightly greased. -Kehlog Albran |

Did you get the last one Steve? Something Dirty. Pretty good album but a bit pedestrian for Faust imo. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.” - Douglas Adams |

I just though of another thing: this album could very well be the answer to all Colin's prayers. In a thread about dream candidates for future collaborations he pretty much mentioned Faust + everyone. What do you know?

It would certainly appear so. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.” - Douglas Adams |

I may have to re-visit that one. I can't really remember anything from it tbh
 I tend to reach for their collab with Dälek, if we're talking 'modern' Faust releases. Fact of the matter is that I'm pretty much stuck on the early releases, but I am still extremely ready to be swept off my feet by anything new and exciting they record. That's why my interest in them never wanes. They're a band that has the potential of great things - to conjure up something completely out of left field, and that never fails to entice me.------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

 I do hope the originals are interesting enough on their own though. ------------- Dig me...But don't...Bury me I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect. |
