Il solito d’incise (Laurent Peter) insieme al percussionista Cyril Bondi (con cui forma il duo Diatribes) e ad Abdul Moimême, membro attivo della scena portoghese della musica improvvisata, ha registrato questo Complaintes de marée basse: sette improvvisazioni caratterizzate da atmosfere sospese, per me piuttosto intriganti ed emozionali.

Il tutto è stato registrato a Lisbona il 28 e 29 Agosto 2009.

La formazione è:

• abdul moimême: two prepared guitars, metalic objects, springs, cymbals, metronome
• d’incise: laptop, objects, various instruments, snare drums, bow, cymbals, gramophone
• cyril bondi: drums, percussions, bow, cymbals, objects, small instruments

Qui vi proponiamo il brano che dà il titolo all’album liberamente scaricabile dalla netlabel Insubordinations.

d’incise (al secolo Laurent Peter, svizzero) è uno di quei musicisti i cui lavori, per quanto astratti, hanno per me sempre una certa componente emozionale.

Vi segnalo questo suo album del 2008 (con tzii) di natura elettroacustica e concreta. Un collage sonoro di suoni elettronici e naturali spesso elaborati, a tratti anche inquietante, ma mai banale.

Oxymore è scaricabile dalla netlabel la p’tite maison.

Un po’ di sana aggressione sonora in stile post free jazz europeo non fa mai male. Dalla netlabel Insubordinations, l’ultimo lavoro del gruppo svizzero Diatribes, un duo formato da cyril bondi (drums, percussions) e d’incise (laptop, obects, treatments), attorno ai quali gravitano molti musicisti ospiti.

Diatribes,a strongly libertarian ensemble, began its existence in a Geneva basement in Winter 2004. Their idea was to mix distinct various types and approach of the sounds, in order to develop a malleable musical mass. The instruments merge into the electronics treatments in a primary dance, where construction and deconstruction coexist, and envy and disgust unite. There are no limits in the way of playing, where rhythms, melodies and noise meet sporadically, merging into each other until they are almost forgotten. Free jazz in its approach, acoustic and electronic in its execution, the trio is capable of exploring the minute like the intense.
Initialy a trio with Gaël Riondel on saxophone, diatribes became a polymorphous formation, extending its spectrum with guest musicians such as the guitarist Christian Graf, the electroacoustician Nicolas Sordet, the pianists Jacques Demierre and Johann Bourquenez, the bassist Dragos Tara or the saxophonist Piero SK..

Laurent Peter è un musicista svizzero (Ginevra) più noto come d’incise, attivo nell’area elettronica /dub / free jazz / found / environmental sound. Morsure Souffle è il suo album più recente, distribuito dalla netlabel Test Tube.

Morsure Souffle, has all the audio hallmarks of a highly subtle sound collage. Released on Portugese netlabel Testube, it is at once found/environmental sound collected, collated and fused into shapes. Then moments of sound echo of improvisational jazz, or at least the stripped echoes of the oeuvre, or even semi-precise mimicry triggering found moments in the audience. Yet the action of extreme electronic manipulation is never far from the palette and the guise of nature as a backdrop to audio acoustic experimentation is as sensible a template as any. Even the sound of the chime, catching the wind, or the approximation of it combined with a sonic hum/purr and gently advancing triangle alarm is enough of a sound argument. Then there is the central track la Banquise living up to its name, a feast of noise terror, (a humorous notion in itself), mutating in to crisp audio action of imaginary violated string experiments on a vanquished piano; reason enough to display control and succinctness of digital prowess.

Un po’ di free jazz condito con elettronica non fa mai male.

Diatribes, a strongly libertarian ensemble, began its existence in a Geneva basement in Winter 2004. Their idea was to mix three distinct types of sound (electronic, wind and percussion), in order to develop a malleable musical mass. The saxophone and drums merge into each other in a primary dance, where construction and deconstruction coexist, and envy and disgust unite. There are no limits to their sound, where rhythms, melodies and noise meet sporadically, merging into each other until they are almost forgotten. Free jazz in its approach, acoustic and electronic in its execution, the trio is capable of exploring the minute like the intense. Their relationship with the public is intimate and profound. Dreams and fears become noise and silence…

Initialy a trio with Gaël Riondel on saxophone, diatribes became a polymorphous fromation, extending its spectrum to other musicians such as the guitarist Christian Graf, the electroacoustician Nicolas Sordet, the pianists Jacques Demierre and Johann Bourquenez.
