The release you're talking about are Thomas Brinkmann records. They're from the Max Ernst series. So far as I can tell there are 10 or 11 releases in the series thus far. Take a close look at the vinyl and you'll notice that you can actually see the music pressed into the records. Thomas experimented using knives to cut grooves into some of his records (from the center out, perpendicular to the grooves in the record). If the tempo of the vinyl is 133 1/3 bpm the cuts translate into sounds that keep time. The Max Ernst series is an extension of this experimentation. Thomas presses the vinyl in such away that you can actually see the music. Take a close look and you'll see what I mean.
