ITTRE 2022
LIVE COMPOSITION FOR ÉCLUSE ON BURATINAS

Around the summer solstice I spent 10 days in Ittre, making a composition for and with the incredible acoustics of the almost 14m high lock. This remarkable piece of Bruxelles-Charleroi canal architecture served as the decor for a sonic intervention. Two pairs of cone-shaped speakers were mounted on the deck of Buratinas to make a sound piece sur mesure, playing with the reflections of the architecture and the water.

SOUNDS BOUNCING OFF CONCRETE BOUNCING OFF WATER BOUNCING OFF CONCRETE BOUNCING BACK

In this track you can hear a mix of the sounds of the performance eventually being swallowed by the overwhelming overtone drones of the engines of the lock pumps.


Many thanks to Nadine VZW, the Buratinas Captains, Christophe Rault and everyone from and around the lock of Ittre 🌊

In the summer of 2015 I went on a solo bike trip from my house in Brussels to the house of a friend in Feuchtwangen. BRU - FEU, not by airplane, but by bike...

Every place where I slept, I recorded some noise, trains, water, brushing, birds, church bells, speech, mobile phone (typing), crickets, rustling wood, cars, clocks, trams, roll-down shutters and etc. 

The soundscape is a rush of sounds and noise, against the rush of our daily-life. It's great the silence I met on this trip, along the Rhine- and Taube-banks, hills and mountains, industries, boats and human beings. Thanks for listening.

BRU - FEU

Erik Satie - Trois Melodies Elegie.WAV

"Farmers in Japan" from Thus:Owls second album Harbours.

The groupʼs cinematic, dark and emotional art-folk hits you in the gut and brings
your focus to what lays deep inside. With an eclectic line-up surrounding the
Montreal-relocated Swedish songstress Erika Angell and Montreal guitarist
Simon Angell (Patrick Watson Band), Thus:Owls emerge from two of the most
prolific and cutting edge corners of the world to create a sound both novel and
captivating.

Their sophomore album "Harbours" was recorded in the French countryside, in a
castle on the banks of La Seine. When it was released in Sweden last October,
the press used words such as "ingenious" and "masterpiece" to describe it.
