Berceuses des deux mondes |
Double LP/Digital |
2025 |

Alors que nos oreilles s'égarent dans la cacophonie d'un monde saturé, noyées par la dissonance et l'excès des bruits qui nous assiègent, Rien Virgule nous invite à explorer des interstices sonores, à ralentir et à résister à la frénésie. Avec 'Berceuses des deux mondes', les incendies assourdissants des vacarmes s'éteignent, le volume du monde suramplifié s'apaise, et la musique se fait refuge. |

Dieu lune et la grenouille, c'est le chant poétiquement reverbé d'Héloïse et ses machines sauvages domptées, qui se mêle aux percussions d'Olmo et ses instruments naturels amplifiés. Le conte onirique émerge progressivement. Il se vit en BPM de la forêt. Dream pop XP cosmique enchanteresse, les nappes sonores fantasmagoriques se superposent, frôlant l'ambient, la noise, mutant presque parfois en trad technoïde extraterrestre. |

Otium / Creatures |
cassette |
2021 |
---|
Tout Bleu is a singular vision made up of a dizzying array of things, from electric folk to Krautrock, glitch techno to dubbed-out postpunk, chamber rock to synthpop, where the electronic crosses paths with the acoustic. Initially conceived as the solo project of the brilliant Genevan multi-instrumentalist Simone Aubert (Hyperculte, Massicot) in 2018, The act is now an exploration ground for the musicians gathered on Otium : Naomi Mabanda on the cello and Luciano Turella on the alto, encounter the sampling machines of POL. On Creatures they were joined by Agathe Max on violin and Nicholas Stuecklin on added percussions. Tout Bleu elaborates its pieces like Circe the magician distils and mixes drugs and poisons. A piercing reflection of our decayed time, Otium appears as a pain and its remedy at the same time.

Rien Virgule |
La consolation des violettes |
Double Vinyl |
2021 |
---|
Suite à la disparition de Jean-Marc, l’un de ses membres, personne n’aurait su dire si le groupe allait continuer. Les principaux intéressés, Anne, Mathias et Manuel, non plus. Quelle réponse donner à une telle épreuve ? Sur les contours du deuil, la vie s’écoule, et en rejouant de la musique à trois, une évidence s’imposait : c’était la même sève incandescente qui pulsait entre eux, celle qui irriguait les sillons de leurs deux précédents disques, celle qui fascinait le public à chacun de leur concert et en faisait des événements. Et avec elle vint l’envie de se remettre à l’ouvrage et de se lancer dans un troisième disque. Alors que l’album a pour titre un vers tiré d’un haïku ('la consolation des violettes'), cette forme poétique à la brièveté radicale, il choisit à l’inverse de s’étirer, de s'affranchir des contraintes du simple vinyle et de pleinement déployer ses ailes pour atteindre une envergure inédite. Quand le haïku peut de déclamer en un souffle, la musique de Rien Virgule en déchaine une multitude, façonnée par les parcours de ses membres qui, à la manière de White Noise, ont longtemps louvoyé dans des pratiques expérimentales avant de livrer leur vision très personnelle de la pop. On prend toute la mesure de l´ambition du groupe qui sur cette durée peut enfin mêler, grâce à une véritable science de la narration, des morceaux écrits où on jugerait apercevoir les volutes mélodiques d’un Robert Wyatt, à d’autres issus de séances totalement improvisées. Ces dernières étant découpées et recollées, à la manière de Teo Marcero pour les albums de Miles Davis, jusqu’à composer des fictions de laboratoire avec la bande magnétique. Jean-Marc avec son instrumentarium bricolé aura légué sa part de chaos aux autres membres du groupe, qui continuent de faire résonner avec délicatesse un fatras de métal et de verre brisé comme autant d'étincelles de vie. 'La consolation des violettes' est un univers tissé de travellings au bord du gouffre, de poèmes tracés au fer à souder et habité d’un élan de liberté viscérale, vibrante et intimement bouleversante.

Surprise Barbue |
Kabukicho |
Vinyl / Digital |
2021 |
---|
You get a real sense this duo are jigsawing a reactive whole, playfully musing a chemistry of betweens. The floaty drift of Chanson pour un Bernard L'Hermite full of accented mirrors and complimentary shapes that snugly cushion or nourish in deflective fancy. The way the title track - Kabukichō (named after Tokyo’s The Blade Runner-esque cover art really fits well with the music as that regal progressive of Le Triomphe de Neptune seances the opulent orb of some lo-fi Mozart - its mercurial arpeggios seemingly plucked from Jean-Jacques Beineix’s diva. That icy synthetic of L'Arche de Noé’s tight-rope too, slowly seduced in chorusing melody then curiously accelerated in secondary sweeps that hungrily wash over like a Vangelis nose bleed. Its inquiring shapes sculpted in glittery euphorics, suddenly grabbing the A tempered afterglow picked up by the twilighted Elizabethan dance of Robin Le Délicat - then silence - skillfully re-animated in this low slung industrial rasp. A colourful layering that psychedelically falls through your mind in coptering contour and dead piano pins as that cowbell continuum is constantly harassed in roasty ‘Guru-Guru’ grandeur. The kind of album exit that makes anticipation for more, all that more pressing. Michael Rodham-heaps - FreQ

'The whole world is a drum kit’ The pleasures I have found in his remarkably varied practice over the years is to feel lost in his playfulness and unpredictability, his sublime sense of all that is seemingly silly and absurd, while retaining a remarkable authenticity and distinct originality. For this recording he has assorted a number of objects in the outdoors which he describes as a ‘drum kit for the sky’. Objects and microphones are moved at the Artist’s whims, while a heavy downpour of rain and ‘intermittent guttering drips’ create a variety of textured rhythms and cacophony. soundcloud.com/henryliamcollins

Rien Virgule |
Le Couronnement Des Silex |
Vinyl |
2019 |
---|
For factual purposes, you might wish to know that Rien Virgule come from southwestern France, but by all accounts it's as useful to think of them as nomadic. The four-piece – Jean-Marc Reilla, Manuel Duval, Anne Careil and Mathias Pontévia – released their debut album Trente Jour À Grande Échelle in 2015 and toured prodigiously, planting their giallo-goth synthprog flag in the haphazard French out-rock underground. Le Couronnement des Silex takes the band no closer to any sort of scene based context but it's an alluring deep dive in it's own right the five songs are intense, gloweringcreations that feel like the aural equivalent of a death stare. Pontévia's drums, loose yet insistent like a depunked version of Budgie in The Banshees, butt heads with Careil's ice-solemn vocal and a glut of synths. It's hard to ascertain who's playing what part, with Reilla, Duval and Careil sharing credit for the latter, but they vary from church organ creeepers (“Zanne Neil Velluto”, “LaVisite Aux Animaux Plâtrés”) to juts and judders of circuit-bent flotsam (“Tactail”, found at a most enjoyable nexus of Goblin, Portishead and Throbbing !gristle) to haughty spacerock sweeps (“Mariage Des Pôles”). “La Peau Noire” opens with dub bass and morphs into a psychedelic punk dervish over its eight minutes. When Careil pitches her vocal up and the keyboards are jostling for position, the results are something like The Residents soundtracking a funeral. Le Couronnement des Silex, though, goes beyond its arguable touchstones and marks Rien Virgule out as a fine, strinking and unpigeonholeable entity which could and should find an audience beyond the French DIY network. The deathly pall the band cast here has a tragic postcript however. Reilla, who built his own synths and also played in avant garde orchestra Un, died a few weeks after the release of this album. If it's to be Rien Virgule's last, they go out in black clad style.

Surprise Barbue est un duo dont la musique fait honneur aux synthétiseurs et à leur infini potentiel. Nappes cosmiques, arpeggiatteurs hypnotiques ou tranchants, mélodies denses, textures brutes, le caractère de chacun des ces claviers et machines s'exprime de façon propre pour nourrir ce flot synthétique. L'ensemble prend des formes plus ou moins libres et élastiques (car tout est joué en direct), mais conserve l'apparence de morceaux et pièces sonores distinctes. De là découle un aspect narratif et cinématographique, chaque set ayant une couleur et des ambiances bien définies.

Pan and the master pipers |
Vinyl |
2018 |
---|
And indeed, pipes are very much in the mixer on the debut LP by Zohastre, a duo of French-Italian psychedelicists. Perhaps mercifully, they’re not pan pipes – rather, it’s the immersive, quavering wail of bagpipes which enlivens ‘Strange Starry Night’ and the title track of this five-song scorcher. A smart fit for Zohastre’s general belief in the power of the drone, which they’ve already proved several times over: Héloïse Thibault runs the marvellous tape label ZamZam and records solo as H., Olmo Guadagnoli as Uiutna; both also play in H.U.M. with Mark Wagner. Pan And The Master Pipers is their crowning musical achievement to date, live drums and analogue electronics interlocking, spiralling and, essentially, rocking without ever sounding rockist. ‘Birds Oracle’ fizzes along in a fashion akin to Excepter or Black Dice at their zenith, with a throbbing synth riff that could have graced some early 90s German trance obscurity; Guadagnoli’s percussion takes a turn for the free and bizarre on the title track, before the sound of the reeds drifts in o’er the misty hills. And ‘Forest, Forest, Forest, Forest, Forest’ spins its heady krautrock rush out for ten minutes, the FX-fucked vocal chanting in the last few of those placing a ritualistic cherry atop a glorious postcard from the European prog/space/noise/psych underground.

"My name is Eduardo Ribuyo. My stage name is c_c. So you can put whatever you want after c and c. I make electronic music, often saturated, at least, when i play live... For one of my first concert, I wanted to find a small lamp, just to have some light on my machines in the dark. And at the store near my house, they didn't have any small lamps. They only had mini strobs. So I bought one and tested it that night, a long time ago, and I liked it! For me, since I'm always looking at my machines, and they are basically illuminated by the stroboscope, I feel like it creates an effect, where I sort of loose it a bit. I'm used to play in front of the stage, among the people. I need to hear exactly what the people are hearing. I feel weird being far and not at the same level. It's also kind of an “ethical” thing, if you will. When people talk about trance and meditation, The states I'm in when I play, it feels like that sort of thing. One thing's for sure, I became a little addicted to that sensation. The rhythm boxes, even the effects pedals, the mixer, to me, they are part of the instrument in their own right. The venue's sound system, amplifiers, or even the room, all that is the prolongation of my instruments. I have several rhythm boxes, and a few little synths that generate sounds. Then all of that goes into my mixer. From my mixer, I have two effects outputs, That allow me to send the sounds that are generated, into the effects pedals. Then, the effects go back to the mixer, through over inputs. So it creates a loop and generates a sound on its own. And it's the same phenomenon as with a mic in the air, A mic with a speaker : feedback, larsen. To me cassettes are quite natural. First, because I use them. Also, my mixer is a cassette four-track. So for me, cassettes are not a thing of the past, Since I use them today. And also, I like this sound, a bit amiss, warm, a little crushed..."

The Toulouse based duo Nibul (fr) proves that France is still producing the most challenging underground transcendentalism and minimalism up to date. With saxophone and percussion they create tribal, open jams in which they take holy tradition of minimalism from the city to the countryside, the lakes and the mountains. We suspect there must be something channeling in artisanal cheese and wine.
Magic and mesmerizing cocktail of melodies, noise, hypnotic and accelerated rhythms. Zoahstre's music is highly inspired and plunges us into a strange and dreamlike universe... They deliver fascinating concerts-rites like strange stellar quarks between cosmic ramblings, spatio-tribal rhythms, spinning bagpipes and beats, sliding glitchiques, drones and electronics from outer space to create an irresistible and whirling ascent. |

On the third day of the planetary alignment, the Body Vessels discovered the Organ Squid. It was waiting, hidden within the inter-galactic transport machine contracted by the Body Vessels for the transition to the primordial Percussion Ritual. Unbeknown, the Organ Squid as a virtual entity, inhabited the Surrogate Embodiment present at the ritual to perform the transcendental clap Patterns. The Body Vessels interpreted Pattern after Pattern until the feedback loop erased the necessity between the physical and the virtual. The alternate paradigms that were formulated revealed that there would never be a return from this new dimension for both the Squid and the Vessels...

This is a truly haunting experience; think Mazzy Star with a whisper of Shelleyan Orphan or Alison Shaw from Cranes, but softer, swollen in the ambiguous. Its language a diffusion of hues, suggestions for your mind to play with, backed by switchblades of horizon that pull at the frame, inverting the scenery in cycling hooks of guitar, droning key-lines, tumbling percussives.A strange inviting atmosphere that holds true for the EP’s opener (and Bumtapes single) “Messiah”. Eleven minutes that literally take your breath away on a sanctum of spiralling guitar and thermal weaves of vocal. A stream of consciousness that opens out in climbing secondaries and beating aortas, the pace suddenly cut back on a “Sugar Hiccup” of Cocteau Twin parallels and swooning multiples. This is powerful stuff into which “Viola Sororia” folds some darker hues. An experimental verve whose shimmering heart solicits a siren call from beyond, churning in tape forwards, Fursaxa-like vibes milking the fiery orche and vivid turquoise sinkholes of this EP’s Icelandic namesake. Delicate vocals that float like diaphanous threads round the instrumentation, shimmer in unison with the eastern tapers of guitar on “Traum” and “Moving Light”‘s slow transits dancing the divine in psychedelic washes and wind-caught chimes. The focus dragging you deeper into the folding expanse of “The Sheltering Sky”, leading seamlessly to the entirely vocal-less closer “Astoria” with its ascending glides of guitar sycamore scarred in a heavy riffage and funnelling dualities. Stoking up a host of heady dramatics before leaving you like a lucid dream, slipping definition in the morning light and escaping across your skin in a trail of goose bumps. A beautiful artefact indeed.

Before I start making music I see everything as indistinguishable tangle of junk. Drank coffee cup, shredded nat geo, pencil, battery, wooden percussion, incomplete sentence, 4/4 rhythm, accelerated radio glitch, lighter, impossible plan, piece of plastic from chocolate, old cheesy loop, another empty cup, memory of a picture of a dinosaur, scissors, shadows of a daily routine, temperature of the room, paper, carpet, that thing that persisted from a video game, arrhythmic loop, reflection from a window, pineapple, memory of something linked to something else, phone number, that thing that I forgot, cup of tea, coins, loop, half-forgotten dream, dictaphone recording, Monday, spoon, pin, some film from childhood, CD, book, paper with an unreadable text, feather, slowed-down Casio, knife, for what I needed the pin? and another loop. Maybe I should clear it all, but instead, I'm waiting for the next evolution shift that would bring new species of bacteria and fungi which will decompose all of that mess regardless of its origin and prepare it for a brand new ecosystem consisting of mysterious organisms, which will overcome the limits of what's natural, human, digital, technical, animal, physical or mental. In more trite words, my music is based on harmonious/disharmonious or rhythmical/arrhythmical layering of loops, repeated transformations of previous material. Vague memories of what once was called IDM, rave or chill out music. Trying to merging boundaries between that what's naïve amateurish, abstract-experimental, concrete-organic, digital or dusty. Conjunction of reckless coincidence and confused intuition. All of this with a purpose to let you grow a second pair of eyes from your ears.

Wizard Of |
Naive I-V |
Cassette |
2014 |

.
Wizard Of creates an electro piece of music at heart with this cassette, but there are some underlying factors in it which certainly need to be addressed as well. There are any number of cassettes out there right now that could fall under an easy “electronic” category that just lets you know they consist of a lot of beeps and boops and all the sounds that come with it. Wizard Of is a little bit different than all of that else, but they do still have that electronic base. Through the electro bliss, drum machine blurs bring out a unique sound that can be described as smooth. I’ve only ever heard one song by Fort Minor, which has a video that is pretty cool so I’m sure you know the song, but this cassette just reminded me a lot of that only on an instrumental level in ways. And I never really thought that song was particularly bad on a musical level, it was just always the vocals that bothered me. But there was always something in the music of that single that translates to this cassette by Wizard Of just as well. It’s mysticism if you will, the way some skateboarders can pull off tricks and just make it look so easy. It’s the way you can sink a three pointer and it’s nothing but net. It’s a home run when the ball seemingly just disappears. Do I need to go on with the sports metaphors or can you begin to understand better now how this isn’t just a piece of electronic music—if you’ll pardon the pun, this is magic.

Mental Transmutation Music |

Un oracle, un roc dérivant d’une galaxie l’autre dans l’incommensurable espace-temps. Initié, il connaît le chant des astres, comme celui des baleines. Il déchiffre les symboles, épouse le vent, la pluie et porte le soleil. Un souffle, un songe, au-delà, la transe. Mark travaille avec des boucles, échos, répétitions, miroirs et autres sources d’émanation de l’Infini. Il s’évade dans des rythmes et des sonorités indéfinissables jouant souvent de longs sets de transport et de méditation sonore. Il mêle expérience spirituelle et multimédia avec le Korè Kosmou, une installation d’immersion audiovisuelle sur les origines de l’univers selon les principes Hermétique ou le Moon RA, un projet « d’illumination, créative et collective » mené par une troupe de musiciens et de projectionnistes qui créent des rituels costumés à vocation transcendantale, dans des églises, temples et autres sites d’élévation acoustique et spirituelle. Next level = Musique Transmutation Mentale.

A persuasive sense of purpose pulls the listener through both sides as various sub-genres of dark electronics run together into a united current. There are Tangerine, Vangelisian synth-wobs riding over the fuzzed out murk – part science fiction dystopia, part mass for the drowned in a submerged cathedral. There is thumping industro-grind as machine rhythms emerge from the loops and echoes. A growing crescendo of tension across ‘side 2’ suggests it isn’t going to end well for the protagonist of this supernatural cyber-thriller. I picture her looking over weapons she knows to be inadequate with a wry resignation then, coincidentally at the exact moment the Earth is at the furthest distance its orbit takes us from the Sun, the door is kicked in… Cosmic oscillations mesmeric dark sorcery shrouded in mistmemory recall drift slowly into the ether .

This time we are doing a tape of poetry and soft jazz music from a man call Malcolm Julian-Swan who is a man who does poems who sent me his tape to review. I am interested in reviewing this one because it is something a bit different that I've heard before because I don't really listen to much poetry. The next poem is about somebody shouting "TWAT" out of the window of a car at Malcolm and how angry this made him. If somebody did that to me I think I'd just take it and walk on and i'd probably get a bit angry but mainly I'd just think the person doing it was not very nice and not worth bothering with, I don't let much bother me really. I lost track track of what the poem was saying after that but I will take it home and listen to it more so I can understand it better. After this one is one about David Cameron on Ready Steady Cook. I don't know much about Ready Steady Cook because I never watch it because I think it's a bit boring and I don't know if he's ever been on it really but I suppose he might have been because David Cameron is the Prime Minister and Prime Ministers are always on the telly. After that there is some stuff about communism which is where things are all shared out and it is like "all for one and one for all" and I think this might be a good thing but I don't know because, like I said, I don't really know much about politics; I do know that I am left wing though because I vote labour. On the other side of the tape it starts off with Malcolm talking about the olden days and how violent it was but I don't know much about that because I never saw much violence in the past. He goes on to talk about a violent green man, I thought it was a funny story because the green man gets thrown off a train for being violent. After this Malcolm starts saying; "War and peace and peace and war… and I know this is a book by somebody called Tolstoy that i've heard of. I've never read War and Peace though so I don't know if this book is about it but it is about wars and stuff I think. I think war is a horrible thing and it shouldn't be allowed because they are dangerous and people die. Overall I think this was a very nice tape and I thought it was good and interesting to listen to the stories that Malcolm tells. They are funny stories that made me smile and made me think about things and I enjoyed listening to it very much. I would give Pheasant 10 out of 10. Pheasant Poem by Peter Kemp. I listened to a tape called Pheasant, It was very, very pleasant, Pheasants live in the woods, This tape is very, very good.

Soft loopian waltz of strange flavours and ornamented frisbees, a rich gyration of sonic bric-a-brac that's really hard to shake off... Each track spins a plentiful alchemy, pulled along on light glittering gravities... the stitching constantly unravelling and reconstituting in ever exotic directions and warped collusions... A whir of oddness that holds your attention, in a champagne lustre that bounces your ear in sweet and effervescent déjà vu's...'

H / Uiutna |
Split |
Cassette |
2011 |
---|
An untitled split cassette tape release and the debut release on the new Zamzam Records label, run by H, a UK-based French national, who arrived on Bristol’s underground scene in January 2010, after several years of studying fine art, teaching arts, and performing experimental music in caves and garages in Geneva, Switzerland. The tape comprises one side by H, showcasing her live show in Bristol on 24 Sep, 2011, (when the artist was thrust onto a bill with Factory Floor, Anika, Hype Williams), and the other side by (the also-Bristol-based) Uiutna. Infinite Limits recommends this title to anyone interested in lo-fi and improvised soundscapes. Indi-bizarre-electronic. Ritual-shoegaze-etc. Close your eyes, bang your head, UIUTNA sounds like loud geometry made out of wood. Western gamelan or hypna-hop or whatever the night has just told him. Neo Kundalini, H is depicted as having ten arms, riding a lion or a tiger, carrying weapons and a lotus flower, maintaining a meditative smile, and practicing mesmeric audio gestures. |
