"[~] marks a stunning new beginning for French artist Nil Hartman. The record combines a warm sense of improvisation with a sleek computer music aesthetic.

Hartman created [~] through livecoding, an approach using text commands in a programming language to compose and perform music in realtime. What you hear on the record is raw, unedited, one-take recordings. Hartman explains: “These versions are unique, I’ll never be able (or willing!) to play them identically.” The astonishing result is not only a technical tour-de-force but a profoundly emotional journey.

The French artist previously enjoyed early success touring Europe festivals with melody-driven club bangers. Following a complete overhaul of his studio craft through a decade of secluded experiments, he now emerges with a deeply personal approach to electronic music.

[~] was recorded live on July 12th and July 30th, 2020. All tracks arranged and performed in realtime using algorithmic langage Tidal Cycle. All sounds generated in realtime using various types of synthesis. The record was mixed and mastered by the artist.

Infinite love and gratitude to LC, Emaël, Siam and familly, Géraud, Pierre, Kevin, Mondkopf, Jb Hanak, Melted Self and Nicolas Bougaïeff. 

[~] is dedicated to Louisiane."

Il s'agit d'une interprétation de la vision holistique du monde et du corps humain dans le médecine chinoise par le prisme du son, via la pratique du livecoding (sonic-pi.net/)
En résulte un voyage sonore pouvant s’apparenter à la musique électro-acoustique à travers "les 5 Portes" : le bois, le feu, le métal, l'eau, la terre.

Les 5 Portes (Extrait ) // LIVE @ DMNTDR [10/2022]

This live was created for Molitor 3, an electronic music event organized by my friend Marti.B at Elastic bar which is one of the most famous venues of Strasbourg nightlife. Unfortunately the event didn't have much success, but it didn't stop us to share a beautiful moment with Marti and his two other guests: Canine who invited me few weeks earlier, and Brian Burger, an electronic music producer close to the German techno scene.

Thank you Marti.B for involving me in this project, and big up to Canine and Brian Burger for their music performances.

Live setup: Reason + MIDI controllers

Expedition 20: Molitor (Elastic) [Intro]

Drone

“As summer begins fading into autumn, I often find myself switching from the relaxed music I favor during the summer into tracks with a more pensive and thoughtful atmosphere. To me, autumn represents a time of inward focus, when one can reflect on the year's lessons and prepare themselves for the upcoming winter. This playlist contains some of my favorite tracks for times of personal reflection.” — @Valcove
