Progressive funky Tech-House.
No big obvious banging here but some emotional funkiness.
Parisian impressionist flavor of vanity fueled consumerism and fashion superficiality.
Mostly using my jazz guitar and vocal micro samples as raw material.

All sounds and instruments made with the modular synthesizer Xils3, a soft synthesizer from xils labs.
This was my entry for a contest they made and i had fun mimicking Jon Hassell's sound. Took me some time but tweaking a modular synth is fun.
All done with this soft synthesizer ONLY !

The smell of ether ... you are fading away ...

Bicycle accident on a rainy morning ...
Ambulance ...
Quiet death ...

Ambulance

Marveling at some frozen landscape in the Alps.
The smoky smell of burning wood somewhere.
I like to walk in the mountains, not to climb on them... 

Just electric guitar, live looping.

Frost

Soundtrack, claustrophobic environment, heavenly hell, labyrinth.

Fuyu No Kemuri (with Yoshi Onaga )

This is one of a series of three songs i made　with the voice of a very old grandma from Yonaguni Island, south west of Okinawa, Japan.
This tiny island is the most western part of Japan and is very close to Taiwan.
A friend went there to record his grandmother singing some traditional songs from the island and he gave me the recordings. Good intuition actually, because she passed away by the time i had finished the third song. And i don't even know her name, nor her face... just this rough, slightly harsh, salty voice. On purpose, i did not try to make her timbre more sweet sounding and i was very tempted to include some very funny moments　between the songs when she coughs like a truck driver or gets a bit upset because her　grand son continually asks her to stop moving some papers in front of the microphone　when she sings. 　＾＾
To stay true to this absolutely authentic voice, i had to limit
myself to a few elements and try to somehow, in my own "gaijin" way, stay true to the Ryukyu traditional spirit, as i feel it presently living in Okinawa, gratefully.
