Diane Barbé ~ musiques tourbes

musiques tourbes (bog musics) is more than just an act of field recording; Diane Barbé‘s album is also an example of “field remembering” and recreation.  Divided between natural soundscape compositions and musical reflections, the album explores sounds that are often unheard

Marc Namblard & Yannick Dauby ~ Brownsberg & Other Topographies

Marc Namblard and Yannick Dauby engage with contrasting soundscapes in the split set Brownsberg and Other Topographics.  Dauby’s dérive (an urban walk) mirrors the “drift” of being lost in an urban environment.  Namblard’s composition, recorded in Suriname, restores the connection
