Their music is a mixture of modern classical, experimental sounds, noise, industrial, avant-garde and free jazz. Their releases were published by their own self-produced label Dys between 1981 and 1986. By 1985 the group had split off into separate groups for visual and audio work. From that time, Mnemonists operated only as a visual arts collective while the musical activity was taken over by a new group called Biota that featured a few of the musicians involved with Mnemonists as well as many new members. The two groups co-exist and share only a few members. Some Attributes Of A Living System was originally released in 1980 in a limited edition of 500 copies on the band's own Dys Label. It is the first album to carry the Mnemonists name and was re-issued in 1985 as half of a double LP by Dys - the other half being the first album, Mnemonist Orchestra. The songs are all entitled Fragments, consisting of improvisation within very basic arrangements. Again, this was recorded at Fort Collins, Colorado.\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003ch2\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003eFragment 1\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 2\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 3\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 4\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 5\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 6\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 7\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 8\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 9\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 10\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 11\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 12\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 13\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 14\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 15\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 16\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 17\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 18\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 19\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 20\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 21\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFragment 22\u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eAdditional Details\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Klanggalerie\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ambient\/Experimental\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRun Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 44:58 mins\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0       \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\/11\/26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5052571229224\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"KLANG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67337286156537,"sku":"GG549","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0815\/4889\/files\/GG549.jpg?v=1791734906","url":"https:\/\/mvdshop.com\/products\/mnemonists-some-attributes-of-a-living-system-cd","provider":"MVD Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
