A l’occasion des 40 ans de l’ACR, l’Atelier de Création Radiophonique de France Culture, le duo de Djs et d’artistes sonores, RadioMentale, se plonge dans les archives de l’émission afin d’en réaliser un remix subjectif. L’idée est ici de se livrer à une déambulation à travers les époques et les sujets, utilisant musique, collages bruitistes, couches et sous-couches sonores, « field recordings », fragments de voix et de dialogues, afin de récréer une bande-son en forme de documentaire poétique ou de film rêvé.

Avec les voix et les travaux de : Caroline Dubois, Sidesel Endresen, René Farabet, Christine Lecerf, Bernhard Leitner Vincent Epplay, Ryoji Ikeda, Sheila Concari, Cécile Mainardi, DJ Spooky, Luc Ferrari, Pierre Schaeffer, Georges Charbonnier et Alain Trutat, Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster & Christophe Van Huffel, Charles H. de Brantes et Gilles Mardirossian, Stephan Crasneanscki, Christophe Atabekian, Jean Cocteau, Thomas Koner, Biosphere, Jérôme Game, Peter Handke, Xavier Garcia, Christophe Pellet, Julien Blaine, Hélène Cixous, Lionel Quantin, Hervé Birolini, Olivier Capparos et Lionel Marchetti, Loris Gréaud, Cécile Le Prado, Arnold Pasquier, Dominique Petitgand, Hélèna Villovitch, Philippe Langlois et Frank Smith…Et beaucoup d’autres que nous oublions sans doute…

First, Consider The Lillys

Binker and Moses leave the now behind and Journey to the Mountain of Forever.

Binker Golding and Moses Boyd will release Journey to the Mountain of Forever -  their second album for London record company Gearbox Records - on 2nd June 2017 in double vinyl LP and double CD formats.

When Binker and Moses’ debut album Dem Ones was released in the Summer of 2015 it kickstarted a remarkable year for the young saxophone and drums duo, who won a string of awards including the 2015 MOBO Awards: Best Jazz Act, Jazz FM Awards 2016: UK Jazz Act of the Year and Breakthrough Act of the Year and the 2016 Parliamentary Jazz Awards: Jazz Newcomer of the Year. Like the album itself, their festival and club performances received rave reviews and ever-growing audiences, culminating in a November 2016 UK tour with The Bad Plus. 

Journey to the Mountain of Forever is a story album about travelling from the known to the unknown. You can expect to meet with Shamans and Ultra Blacks and immerse yourself in strange rituals and echoes from the infinite.

Sessions for the new album took place on July 21st and 22nd 2016, resulting in 10 reels of tape filled with over five hours of music. Like it’s predecessor Dem Ones, the new album was recorded completely live from Mark Ronson’s Zelig studio by Grammy award winning engineer Ricky Damian. direct to a 1960’s Studer C37 1/4” tape machine at Gearbox’s studio next door with no edits or mixing. The vinyl lacquers were cut directly from this original stereo master on Gearbox’s 1967 Haeco Scully lathe with Westrex RA1700 series amps, using a Westrex 3DIIA cutting head and Telefunken U73B tube limiter, Maselec master control and equalisation and Audio Note monitoring equipment.

Selfless

Joni Void • "Empathy (Ayuko's Song)"

"Nzuku” emphasizes the feeling that something distinct has begun. Its strong atmosphere has the scent of narrative. Rotating on a hypnotic marimba pattern and an octave-driven bass reminiscent of Charlie Haden, it’s a loose-limbed meeting of sounds and approaches. It’s the sound of an ensemble working together in harmony, opening doors for one another. It makes you want to open a window and let in the fresh air. A sunbaked workout that suggests a 6/4 cycle, it’s a wild blend of dusted atmospherics, a low-slung hammock in a cosmic jazz disco style.

On Working Alone

The first person to create something one may classify as instrumental music was probably alone. The mind tingles when imagining the prehistoric moment when, for the very first time, a member of what then was the human race grabbed something and used it to make a purposeless series of sounds. Even if some of his fellow beings had been present at the time, would they have understood anything of it? Would they have taken interest in it and stopped to listen, or would they have demanded something easier to dance to?

The leap from vocalizing or clapping to a form of expression produced with instruments may have taken a long time, perhaps even a thousand years. The same goes for the fabrication of such instruments. Human communities were small, and influences spread slowly. We do know, however, that the first discovered instruments date back to 43,000 years ago and took the form of flutes made from the bones of mammoths and birds. Researchers believe they played a role in religion and in entertainment – in this sense, very little has changed. The wildest theories claim that music was one of the factors that gave us, the Homo sapiens, a competitive edge over the Neanderthal: music helped foster deeper cooperation between individuals. 

In any case, however, the ones who decided to hollow out that bone and find out what kind of sound you could get out of it were individuals, and this brings us back to our theme of working alone. The modern solo musician enjoys a much greater sense of liberty than our distant forefathers. Multi-track and recording technology freed us from our physical constraints and allowed us to imagine ourselves as a multiplicity. Everyone could, in the comfort of his home, be his own one-man band without having to strap an array of instruments onto his body like carnival musicians or Rahsaan Roland Kirk used to.

This is the frame from which A. E. Vauhkonen and Oiro Pena spring from. Vauhkonen´s hands simultaneously summon up brass, flutes, keyboards, drums, stringed instruments and all sorts of percussion. The sound is firm and slightly cosmic, like early Sun Ra Arkestra at its heartiest. But that’s enough about the music, listen for yourself.

RadioMentale is an electronic music, sound artists & DJ duo founded by Jean-Yves Leloup & Eric Pajot. They started their career in 1992, with their own radio show, playing experimental music, concrete music, ambient & electronic. During ten years, they produced this weekly and cult radio show in Paris for Radio FG (first french and independant electronic music station), national Swiss station Couleur 3 and Tokyo Shibuya FM. During this period, they also played in the first techno and rave parties organized in Paris, mainly in chill-out spaces.

From the mid-90’s, they started to work in the field of contemporary art, composing sountracks and soundpieces for exhibitions, and collaborating with video artists, writers, designers or film directors.

Since then, their work, their installations and performances, have been presented in various venues such as Palais de Tokyo in Paris, Centre Georges Pompidou, Kassel’s Documenta, Luxembourg Mudam, Paris Cité de la musique, Cartier Foundation, and various clubs, music and cinema festivals over the world.

Since 2000, they are known as the pioneers of « cinemix », an audiovisual performing practise quite popular in France. As Djs and sound artists, they create new soundtracks for silent and classic experimental films (by Griffith, Murnau, Keaton, Vertov, and dada/surrealist artists), but also for modern talking movies, such Antonioni’s Blow Up, Gus Van Sant’s Gerry, Brian De Palma’s Dressed To Kill or David Cronenberg’s Videodrome.

A RadioMentale performance or sound piece, is usually a collage drawing on an eclectic range of audio sources, including sound experiments, movie soundtracks, ambient music, experimental & electronic music, natural sounds, fragment of interviews and human voice.

After two Mixed CDs, released in 1997 (the ambient/IDM The Slow Room) and 2004 (the more cinematic Cut-Up Scenario), they released in 2007 as L-R & RadioMentale (with Jean-Philippe Renoult), an album/voice collage/radio art piece entitled I Could Never Make That Music Again, for the belgian label Sub Rosa, awarded by a 2008 Qwartz Prize in France for best electronic artist.

In 2012, their new album is entitled I-Land, gathering three recent original compositions, each one lasting twenty minutes. Mixing vocals with field recordings (natural and urban sounds) and electronic sounds, as well as revealing a rich and poetic universe, halfway between ambient, electro-acoustic and sound art. The characteristic features of Radiomentale’s sounds remain untouched: human vocals, immersion and hypnosis aesthetics, cinematic climate, sense of narration and atmospheres.

Their latest sound and audiovisual pieces and installations were commissioned by the Paris Gaîté Lyrique and the Geneva Chamber Orchestra, the french ministry of culture, Montpellier ZAT festival, national radio stations France Culture (ACR : creative radio workshop) and France Musique (Tapage Nocturne radio show).

Jean-Yves Leloup is a sound-artist, DJ, critic, journalist and a curator, specialized in electronic music, contemporary art & new technologies. He is the author of « Les Basiques : la musique électronique » (Olats.org), an online a free book dedicated to the history of electronic music, an essay entitled « Digital Magma » (2009, Sternberg Press) and also « Global Techno » (published in 1999 by Camion Blanc and republished by Scali in 2008). He has been the curator of the design and sound art project Audiolab. Born in 1968 in Paris. Lives and work in Paris.

Eric Pajot is a visual artist, a musician and a DJ. He is the author of several DVDs on graphic and digital art; he produces scenic videos all the while carrying out two other musical projects with the duos Haarpband and White Bamby. Born in 1966 in Bourgogne. Lives and work in Paris.
