Here is the ephemeral liveset I performed at Ultratech Chaos Lab 2.0, the second instalment of a party series dedicated to noise, livecoding, and other experimental stuff. This gig was a little special as it was the first time I played at the Diamant since Exploration 1 which took place something like 5 years ago. It was also the first time I used a random notes generator (you can hear it in the first part). I really enjoyed the 'melody cascade' feeling it gave to the whole piece. Will definitely reuse this kind of technique in the near future.

Special thanks to the Diamant team for hosting the event and 520Still for the awesome visuals he illustrated my liveset with, and big up to all the other artists involved: Azertype, Ralt144mi and Leon Denise from the Cookie Collective, Papirove Houby, Jules Cipher, Coloscope, William Stone, and Crash Server.

Ok this is a special one. When Canine invited me to her Unleash residency at la Kulture, she proposed me to warmup the party from 11:30pm to 1am. It was the very first time I had to create an ephemeral piece more than an hour long so it was a little challenging, especially because I design each of these ephemeral pieces to be like one, continuous, giant escalation. The fact that this liveset was so long did create some very interesting moments in my opinion, especially in the beginning, like if all these synth arps were diluted in some ethereal space or something.

Believe it or not, someone even told me that this performance would fit in a contemporary art museum. Don't know how to take it really, so let's say this is an awesome compliment.

Thank you very much Canine for inviting me, it was a great night. I would also thank Zoe and Laurent for the beautiful conversation we had together after the bar did close its doors. Good and powerful memories.

From the rerelease of Newer Unknown Breeds. OUT NOW ON BANDCAMP:
https://moodexhibit.bandcamp.com/album/newer-unknown-breeds-expanded-edition

"Newer Unknown Breeds" was at the time a further development in sound for Blink Twice. The album expanded on the techno and electro genre much more than Blink Twice's debut "Other Locations". There was an increase usage of sampling on this collection of material, often with looped effects incorporated to add further density. With the blend of tribal and industrial elements remaining, it serves as an adventurous concoction of experimental rhythmic and darker ambient electronic music.

The underlying theme of "Newer Unknown Breeds" was the observance of mutations (both deliberate and natural) within organisms. Evolutionary results of obscure creatures and their advancement and place in the biological field.
