The Insect Musicians album is important for several reasons:
— Years before Matmos, Lopez, or Autechre, Revell created microtonal music - not only using samples of micro-sounds (here are sounds of insects) but also experimenting with the nature of sound itself.

It used to be a compilation involving also Nurse With Wound and Déficit Des Années Antérieures dedicated to Adolf Wölfli.
Born in Bern, Adolf Wölfli was abused both physically and sexually as a child and was orphaned at the age of 10.
He often attempted to perform sexual acts on young girls – often getting away unpunished. Eventually, he was caught in the act and institutionalized for his doings. After being freed, he was re-arrested for a similar offense and in 1895 was admitted to the Waldau Clinic, a psychiatric hospital in Bern where he spent the rest of his adult life.
