about

LP published by Cave12 label.

Testimony to the first encounter of the trio during a concert given at the cave12 on the 28.10.2020, on the same evening of the new Covid announcements which brought on a re-confinement in France, and even to a six-month long shutdown of cultural places in Switzerland. A concert from which we emerged staggering and with burning ears due to the ongoing crisis surrounding us. A masterful sonic performance. Before silence. Drawing from the dense and intense sound material of the evening, Francisco Meirino carried out a work of mixing and cutting, thus releasing an account of it, conceived for vinyl support and domestic use, an auditory result with a fascinating tension/frame.
Swirling field recordings, urban/mechanical sounds, ghostly radio, cannibal revoxian magnetic tape, unrecognizable saxophone chants from hell, synthesizer manipulations, intermingle and merge into a sonic flow of pure permanent tension. An uncompromising and hallucinating sound journey of the very first order. A captivating back-and-forth, rich and spiralling between different levels of listening, filled with recognizable or unrecognizable sound materials and disturbing textures à la perfectly mastered dynamics, on a knife edge of abyss & time. And with, on the album, a simply gargantuan, corrosive, and overwhelming B-side!

A l'origine, un enregistrement témoignant de la première rencontre du trio lors d’un concert donné à la cave12 le 28.10.2020, le soir même de nouvelles annonces covidiennes de reconfinement en France, et veille des fermetures des lieux culturels en Suisse pour 6 mois! Ensuite un gigantesque travail de mixage et montage réalisé par Francisco Meirino pour créer ces deux faces. Un voyage sonore sans compromis et halluciné de tout premier ordre. Un va-et-vient captivant, riche et spiralant entre différents niveaux d’écoute, empli de matières sonores référençables ou pas et de textures perturbantes à la dynamique parfaitement maîtrisée, sur le fil de l’abime & du temps. Et avec, sur l’album, une face B tout simplement gargantuesque, corrosive et terrassante !
