Concatenative Mu

Sébastien Roux & Vincent Epplay

Brocoli 005

The first collaborative effort of Sébastien Roux (12k, Room 40, Greg Davis collaborator) and Vincent Epplay (Tiramizu, Stembogen, artist/musician). This is punk, still virtuoso, musique concrète : think of John Oswald's plunderphonics and german experimental music of the 80s/90s (like Rowenta/Khan). A demanding, disturbing, rich, yet funny and delightful listen.

Passagenweg

Pierre-Yves Macé

Brocoli 004

The chance meetings of gramophone cracklings and digital glitches, of sweet orchestration and saturated drones. Ambient soundscapes, melodic lines and fractured collages, lyrical, mysterious and melancholic.

Second souffle

ON

Brocoli 003

ON = Sylvain Chauveau + Steven Hess + Pierre-Yves Macé.
Second Souffle a slick display of ambient, improv and concrete music; a rich electro-acoustic composition made of piano, prepared guitar, vibes and percussion.
