XP, NOiSE, Improvised Music, Modular synth, since 1998 /

Heard Of Bears is a free improvisation collective based in Marseille, France. The sound they often end up making could be described with words like cavernicole and nocto-diurnal.

The geometry of the group is variable and for the moment consists of Simon Sieger (Accordion, Trombone), Vincent Lajus (Violoncello), François Wong (Saxophone), Rachel Chen (Violin) and Ed Williams (Electric Guitar).

Guitariste sarde, vit a Marseille.
En solo, sa musique est une histoire de bruits et de mélodies obtenus sur une guitare modifiée. Bienvenue aux accidents sonores, les pieds sur les pédales d’effets, rêve de paysage électronique, de drone et d’improvisation.
Entendez-vous ces voix oubliées? Échos d’une absence hantée, de quel exil sur quelle Lost Highway?...
Musique qui se tisse en même temps qu’elle se défait, épure, déchirure estompée.
Dans le lyrisme désenchanté de Fabrizio Fenu résonne l’Italie des années de plomb. Marcher encore sous le soleil... Au loin, quel est cet embrasement ? Crépuscule ou lueur d’aube nouvelle?

I like to be introduced as a "MUSICAL TRAVEL-AGENT".
ONSTAGE I'm mostly playing an Easel K (Buchla Modular Synth) and The Pipe (from SOMA Lab) which allows mouth-synthesis... I also manipulate unique vinyls with my sounds/musics, assaulting turntables to take advantage of the vinyl material to fondle released sounds, raking the needle across the record's grooves, rubbing their stylus on paper, cardboard, metal to process unusual noises and textures. I have a physical relation to my recordings and envision my live sets like performances. 
Gesture is also a very important part of my compositional process... While composing I am also relying on the use of real instruments such as Cymbalom, Pianos, Guitar and Percs that I play like a kid discovering a new toy, improvising and attaching great importance to gesture and stressing dynamics. My moves aren’t consensual, not cozying up potential listeners. A Punky approach even if throughout the past years I have been following courses of Composition + Electroacoustic Music at the Conservatory, specializing in Modular Synthesis. 
Pushing further my research in bringing together the Human and its Machine into a tapestry of sound which creates a deep sound assemblage of exotic Musiques Concrètes which guarantees to grow on you with repeated listens, slowly revealing its detailed richness…
