Premiere - Messell - II (Textur)

On the long-awaited Exaptations, Toronto-based composer Nick Storring presents two highly textural, side-long pieces. On “Field Lines”, originally composed for Yvonne NG Peck Wan‘s dance piece, Magnetic Fields, a certain fragmented, uncertain openness is conveyed: a series of brief, dreamlike clearings are vignetted by pregnant silences or various levels of waking or sleeping states. Storring plays with a variety of tonal instruments that swell and tumble along while being nipped at by expressive percussion. Organic clusters develop within event-based sequences, stretching attention across multiple timbres and rhythms. On “Yield Criteria”, shifting drones move about like independent layers of ice on a lake in the dead of winter, slowing crumbling, sliding, and cracking in perfect harmony. Storring has written for dance and other interdisciplinary settings, and here he brings the delicate resourcefulness of a skilled accompanist, as well as a narrative sense that belatedly, profoundly blossoms.

Il est venu le temps de marquer une petite pause afin de profiter de l’été.

Nous vous quittons donc brièvement avec cet enregistrement pensé par @rene-danger. Cet artiste d’origine bretonne officie au sein du collectif @la-boucle-1 ainsi que sur la radio FM expérimentale et éphémère @ondorphine. Parallèlement, il prend soin d’imaginer des artefacts sonores sortant sur son label @edidentites co-geré avec @juna_xxl. 

Durant une heure, entre field recording et tracks unreleased de juna xxl, Amelove, Funk Master Bapt et lui-même, René Danger nous propose une randonnée auditive de la rivière à l’océan, le vent dans les cheveux, entre 2 festivals d’été.
