Notes

in the memory of René Quinon

thanks to Fred Galiay & "Samedi 14"

We all are in a house: "Villa Adriana", (René Quinon's house - little village - low mountain - high valley - Ardèche). A bunch of all kind of microphones are deviced in the house and amojng the landscape around the place. Each of them is plugged into a mixing desk that Eric La Casa is using during the recordings. The duration of the mix is more or less pre-decided by the 4 of us. During this amount of time, the 3 instrumentalists are going around, in and out of the house, following their own improvised sounds and courses throught this open expanse filled by sound-catchers - thus we all are working on the construction of a sort of abstract and tentacle-like belvedere plunged into the acoustic space of the place. This CD is the direct result of one of those mix-experiences.
