'Parc Naturel pour Synthétiseurs' was composed and recorded using self-sustained energy with my modular synthesizers in Auvergne, France, as part of a residency called "Le Récit du Silence" (The Tale of Silence), centered around autonomous in situ performances. During this time of creation, I used batteries and solar panels to power the entire small studio that I had installed to be able to play in open nature.

This project is the most ambitious endeavor I have undertaken so far. It aims to take the audience on an auditory journey through diverse microcosms, resembling a real natural park. For this project, I used my modular synthesizer that I was able to take everywhere.

Composing with nature is not such an easy thing, as you have to learn to let go. In times of capitalist anxiety, the mere search for calm becomes difficult. And when we finally find it, we already think about finding it again.

In these places, the natural and ephemeral orchestra is alive. It can invite us to compose with it.

I seek to bear witness to these moments to offer the world these new imaginations. And there are these moments, at the bend of a mountain contour where the music comes to life and offers us a "natural park of sounds". - TL

this time is different
i feel different
lost under tension
fateful companion
your skin is frozen
my wounds closing
you overestimate
the ones you love the steps you take
i want us to be best friends but
maybe baby i cant pretend
when im asleep
is when you call me
don't talk too deep
we'll be sorry
find hope in nothing
we are nothing
i want us to be until the end
maybe baby i cant pretend
