Description :Crawling Wind was released in 1981 on the Japanese 'Chaos International Series' label and features the tracks 'Toujours Plus à l'Est', 'Before The Heat', and 'Central Belgium In The Dark'. This is the first vinyl reissue of this legendary EP.

'Toujours Plus à l'Est', as the title suggests, is heavily influenced by the traditional music of Eastern Europe, particularly Bulgaria. It also pays tribute to the iconic catchphrase of Professor Calculus (Tournesol), the character from the Belgian comic series Tintin.

'Before The Heat', played live a few times, is an ambient composition by Andy Kirk, who is part of the EP's lineup alongside Daniel Denis, Guy Segers, Alan Ward, and Dirk Descheemaeker.

'Central Belgium in the Dark' is a live improvisation from a period when Univers Zéro dedicated part of their concerts to complete improvisation. What makes this recording unique is that one of Andy Kirk's effects pedals picked up and emitted the sound of a mysterious radio signal, seemingly coming from 'nowhere,' especially noticeable at the end of the piece.

The title of this improv is a nod to contemporary composer Charles Ives' work Central Park in the Dark. 'Central Belgium' refers to the concert venue where the piece was recorded (Haine-St-Pierre).

This EP was named one of the greatest Belgian albums ofall time by MOFO magazine in February 2000, a rock magazinefrom the '80s.

The original cover artwork has been beautifully redesignedby Thierry Moreau.

Univers Zero represents one of the longest-living bands in Belgium. It was established in 1974. Drummer Daniel Denis had the brilliant idea to gather together a team of professionalssharing the same taste for music. The band has adopted an instrumental progressive style. Over the last couple of decades,the band has also implemented a series of influences fromchamber music - most commonly, chamber music from the 20th century. Even if the line-up changes a lot over the years, the overall sound of UZ remained fairly consistent.

03. Central Belgium in the Dark 09'54
