Voices rise from the sea, unalone on the steep 
Walk through ruins to the uncontained abyss
Lay across the starry fields and knowingness
Surrender to the hidden evergreen, as we return as trees 

Wear the colour of the night, haul the ashes to the mire
To the edge of the kingdom we will stand
Lament not ascensions to the light 

Take this flesh and turn it into wood 
Cast these limbs unto the hallowed earth 
And wood to stone, so I can return, as trees

Silver light, shimmer through watch for dawn 
In these woods of twilight hymns 
A silent void.....

Huge thanks to Syggefigurrer  https://soundcloud.com/skyggefigurrer

A massive thanks to my beautiful Soundcloud friends for your support and kindness. I treasure all of your comments and am eternally grateful to you. May the next year bring you all that your heart desires.

Return As Trees (feat. Skyggefigurrer)

Shortly after releasing his highly acclaimed ‘The Benoît Pioulard Listening Matter’(Kranky), Pioulard left on tour to Europe in order to promote the album. This tour took him to several distinctive places ranging from urban Brussels to rural France and the mystic capital city of Iceland, Reykjavik.

Once returned to Seattle, these new impressions and memories formed the inspiration to make ‘Slow spark, soft spoke’. Not surprisingly, the album continues in the same vein as his tour cd ‘Lignin Poise’ - which was repressed on vinyl by Beacon Sound - and is characterized by slowly moving lo-fi ambient textures. The album reveals Pioulards most melancholic side and once again shows his capabilities to bring beautiful sonic narratives with only a few instrumental layers.

‘Slow spark, soft spoke’ was initially released on tape on Dauw but sold out quickly during pre-order. After having received only sublime reviews and tons of request to re-issue the album, we now decided to give it a well deserved vinyl repress.

 “'Never, just as you wanted' is a timeless odyssey of complete transcendence with gradual bliss of guitar tones – and meticulously crafted sounds – that somehow map the ocean swell of human emotions – of the innermost kind – embedded deep within us all." (Fractured Air)

For this vinyl edition, Pioulard decided to add 2 totally new tracks in addition to the 4 initial ones. These new tracks are presented as the single 'Athanasy, 1993' which will be released and announced with the vinyl pre-order on October 4th. All together, the initial EP and the new single form a consistent full length which adds to his impressive and ever growing catalogue.

‘Slow spark, soft spoke’ will be released on October 26th on a limited  vinyl edition (200 heavyweight clear vinyl) and digitally. The tape comes with original hand-printed artwork by Femke Strijbol and will be accompanied by a unique polaroid taken by Benoît Pioulard (limited to 50 only).

Sparks is my first try at microtonality. It is also the first time I share one of my minimalistic pieces. I've always had the belief that minimalism and microtonality would be a good fit. As this was my first microtonal endeavor, I sticked to a rather familiar tuning system. I do plan to explore 31-edo next in combination with minimalism. I also have a 12-tone minimalist album in the making so stay tuned for that.


This piece is using Zheanna Erose's novemdecacimal system. Please go and check out her music here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIn6uis5duw
