Comme un pied de nez au slogan publicitaire “La montagne, ça vous gagne !”, la pièce sonore questionne le bien fondé des aménagements touristiques en montagne; particulièrement lors des sports d’hiver; en résonance avec les problématiques environnementales actuelles. Espace autrefois craint et sauvage puis terrain de conquête et de liberté, qu'avons-nous fait de la montagne aujourd’hui ? L’auditeurice est invité.e à arpenter la vallée de Chamonix et un petit morceau d’Italie tout en s’interrogeant sur l’impact écologique que peuvent avoir plus globalement nos loisirs.

Réalisation et montage : Iga Vandenhove
Mixage : Jules Wysocki

Playing ironically with the advertising slogan “La montagne, ça vous gagne!”, the sound piece questions the relevance of tourist developments in the mountains, particularly during winter sports, in relation to current environmental issues. Once a feared and wild place, then a land of conquest, what is the mountain becoming today? Listeners are invited to explore the Chamonix valley and a small part of Italy, while wondering about the ecological impact of our leisure activities.

Português Brasil :

A Música  é o alimento da vida, ela nutre o coração, agita a alma e une as pessoas por meio de emoções cruas e grooves atemporais.
Deixe a música te mover, te elevar e te conectar a algo mais profundo. Continue espalhando o amor,  a música  é uma linguagem universal.  As pessoas não querem mais ouvir música, elas querem senti-la.

English: 

Music is the food of lifeit nourishes the heart, stirs the soul, and brings people together through raw emotion and timeless grooves. 🎶❤️

Let the music move you, lift you, and connect you to something deeper. ❤️

Keep spreading the love, music is a universal language! 🎤✨

"People don't wanna hear music anymore, they wanna feel it."

English:
I was born in the late 60's, but only in the late 70's I got to absorb the disco era. I was a listener, but always with a keen sense. It was where everything began, a passion for eletronic music.

In the 80's, these most intensely lived, and for me one of the best. I absorbed a generation of true musicians, which adds even more knowledge and feeling.

Nowadays, with all knowledge that I have gotten, I look intensely all the songs of the past. I really miss those times and I do not deny. After all, having this feeling is a spiritual universe, where we bring with us in our lives, everything good that we got. It is our story on a journey throughout time, going back, reviving às if it were the first time, remembering, inventing everything again making the "now" become Alive as in the pas, becoming a source of life.

Music is a cycle that goes back and forth. As I mentioned, I miss those times, but I did not stop in time, I enjoy the pasta and the present. I think I do define myself as an only style. I always say I like music and with the keen sense I have, I listen to the songs and if I believe they sound good to my ears, that's what I will believe. House is the base. However, in my sets there might be a tech house, a techno, or rather any Söns that may please my ears.

Nowadays, I live intensely researching everything from the past until the current days. 


Português Brasil: 
Nasci no final de 60's, logo, fui absorver a era DISCO já no final de 70's, era ouvinte, mas sempre com um feeling aguçado. Foi onde tudo começou a paixão pela Música Eletrônica.

Nos anos 80's, esses mais vividos intensamente, e para eu um dos melhores, absorvi uma geração de verdadeiros musicistas, o que veio acrescentar ainda mais o conhecimento e o feeling.

Hoje, com todo conhecimento que absorvi, busco intensamente todas as músicas do passado, sou sim, verdadeiro SAUDOSO, e não me nego ser saudoso, afinal a saudade é um universo espiritual, onde trazemos conosco em nossas vidas tudo de bom que absorvemos, é a nossa história em uma viagem pelo tempo, indo atraz, revivendo como se fosse a primeira vez, lembrando, recordando, podendo inventar tudo novamente, fazendo com que, o agora, torne vivo como no passado, tonando-me fonte de vida.

A música é um ciclo, vai e volta. Como falei acima, sou saudoso, porém, não parei no tempo, curto o passado e o presente. Acho que não me defino por um estilo somente, gosto sempre de falar que gosto de música, e com o feeling aguçado que tenho, ouço as músicas, e se eu acreditar, soar bem aos meus ouvidos, é o que acreditarei. A House é a base, entretanto, em meus sets, pode ter um Tech House um Techno....ou melhor qualquer música que agradar aos meus ouvidos.

Hoje, vivo intensamente pesquisando, desde tudo do passado, até os dias atuais.
