Belgian electronic/avant-garde composer Jean-Marc Lederman will release his new CD album “Electronic Slipper Music” on August 31, 2025 through Les Disques de la Pantoufle. The album brings together eight vocal tracks and seven modular/experimental pieces.

“I wanted to go back to where it all started, back in 1982, with my first release: some synths and my own voice,” Lederman says, adding that using his voice was “interesting and fun material for me to fold, destroy, cut and form.”

The album will be available as a 6-fold CD digipak with a 10-page booklet, as well as in digital format. Artwork is by Erica Hinyot, a long-time visual collaborator on Lederman’s releases.

Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
