Jeremie Sauvage

Occitanie
Aguirre Records present the first vinyl edition of France's Occitanie, originally released in 2009. Savage pulsating drone-rock from France, the trio of Jeremie Sauvage on electric bass, Mathieu Tilly on drums, and Yann Gourdon on amplified hurdy-gurdy. They play one note/one rhythm, producing energetic performances reminiscent of the early collaborations between Faust and Tony Conrad. Creatively recycled influences result in intense shows with pounding overtones and repetitive pulsing rhythms. …
Dosses
In 2015 Tanz Mein Herz welcome a new arrival among its ever-evolving roster of musicians, the self-taught hurdy-gurdy wizard Alexis Degrenier (from La Tène among other bands). With a tour already in the works, the musicians settle on a set consisting of old material (Magical Stones and Shiny Mud) as well as new themes such as Spiegel Haus, both built around the new instrumentation. The selection presented on Dosses is taken from the very first rehearsals around these themes, as the musicians str…
Voyage Spectral / Do Den Haag Church / Meltdown of Planet Earth (3LP in bundle)
Taking a deep dive into the output of France - the minimalist drone/psych outfit of Yann Gourdon, Mathieu Tilly, and Jeremie Sauvage (hurdy gurdy, bass, drums) - Standard In-Fi returns with some of the most hypnotic and intoxicating sounds we’ve heard this year, with three brilliant LPs from the outfit, “Voyage Spectral” a never before issued body of recordings made with Temple Solaire in 2013, and long awaited reissues of two of their most striking albums to date, 2009's “Do Den Haag Church”, a…

Do Den Haag Church
"A french trio called France, using drums, bass and amplified hurdy-gurdy. They perform only live, in the middle of the audience - turned in to face each other - full on smoke machines and strobes. And they play only one ‘song’ for the duration of their hour-long set. And it’s the most transfixing live experience of intense physical and mental focus. The distorted hurdy gurdy plugs France’s sound into the country’s history of folk music and popular festivities, of communal trance and immersive p…
Meltdown of Planet Earth
Tip! France is a trio from the Occitane region in France. The trio consists of Jeremie Sauvage on electric bass, Mathieu Tilly on drums, and Yann Gourdon on amplified hurdy-gurdy.  The sound of "Meltdown Earth" is akin to the aural experiments done by Tony Conrad and Faust with their "Outside the Dream Syndicate" LP released in the mid-70's.  It's long form drone music that has more in common with the DIY brunt of Cromagnon (ESP-Disk) than a more academic monocle stance of museum minimalism. Thi…
Quattro
Tanz Mein Herz’s latest, Quattro, out via Standard In-Fi, encounters the French collective pushing at the boundaries of folk tinged experimentalism, psych, and drone. Sprawling across two LPs, it’s an absolute burner of throbbing, hypnotic sound and stunning creative interplay, and easily one of the best records we’ve heard in the early months of 2021.
Far Out Far West
The sickest French band, a trio called France, drums, bass and amplified hurdy-gurdy. They only performs live, in the middle of the audience - turned in to face each other - full on smoke machines and strobes. And they play only one ‘song’ for the duration of their hour-long set. And it’s the most transfixing live experience of intense physical and mental focus, and there is something of early rave too, the togetherness, the energy, the euphory.
Live à Metamórfosi 2019
Recorded live in Paris in 2015 (not sure wht the title says' 2019' but...) here we have an new LP from France, the legendary trio (hurdy gurdy, bass, drums) of Yann Gourdon, Mathieu Tilly, Jeremie Sauvage, founded in Valence back in 2005. Over the last 14 years they've been delving into the dark folds of drone and experimentalism, collaboratively breathing new life into these territories or sound. An expansive universe of rhythm and tone, at times flirting at the outer borders of Tony Conrad's l…
Une Autre Version de Territory
On of the latest release on the ever-excellent Standard In-Fi (the imprint run by France's Jeremie Sauvage), with the help of Mental Groove, is this incredible beaturing double bass, lapsteel, bagpipes, guitar, violin, percussions... With musicians also playing in bands such as Toad, France, Sourdure or Abat. Far-out instrumental stuff with killer sound
Ott
Limited to 300 vinyl version live at Ottfest 2014. France set out for a wild mesmerizing revelry of sound. The result is one of their best recordings to date. Imagine Tony Conrad & Faust reincarnated as a french trio in 2014, using only a minimal drum kit, bass and hurdy-gurdy to drone you into another dimension. The music of France is built around the idea that a circular rhythm section combined with the trance-inducing riffs of the hurdy-gurdy can generate an endless series of (micro)tonals va…
Abandonnée/Maléja
La Tène is back with a double invitation to its third full length LP.  The hurdy-gurdy/harmonium/percussions trio welcomes two bagpipes (cabrettes and 23” to be exact), and a combo of string instruments (12-string guitar and electric bass).  Beyond the instrumentation, we’re looking at a gang of high esteemed guests: Jacques Puech, Louis Jacques, Guilhem Lacroux and Jérémie Sauvage, whom works are given their due credit (with the La Novià collective and its multiple variations, the France group…
À La Recherche De La Flexitude Du Temps
Fierce 78minutes concert by France, recorded in 2016 released on the French label Fougère. With cartoons by Capony and Sauvage. Think Faust, Tony Conrad, early Can.
Territory
Truly amazing LP featuring musicians from Toad, France, Sourdure etc. on bagpipes, double bass, guitar, lap-steel,violin, frequency generators, percussions, tambourine and more. "Tanz Mein Herz sees Sauvage and Tilly joined by members of Toad, compatriots who use regional folk instruments like the French bagpipes and violin in order to create monolithic folk/drone constructs, as well as guitarist and bass player Pierre Bujeau. Territory underlines their commitment to the sounding of specific spa…
Do Den Haag Church
Mental Groove presents a vinyl reissue Do Den Haag Church from France, repress of the band's now well known live recording in Den Haag, 2008. The recording is raw and the mastering is fat. The first two pressings made in 2014 and 2015 were distributed confidentially and during the numerous live performances of the band. This pressing features brand new artwork. "France is a French trio that uses drums, bass and amplified hurdy-gurdy. They only perform live, in the middle of the audience - turned…
Electric Zoi
A new Cdr from the legendary France recorded at the Bourse du Travail in Saint Etienne in March 2013. This live set is more than 70 minutes long and truly spaced out! France's massive sound bleats mournfully, endlessly; rising, breathing, sighing, screaming, but without ceasing: relentless. A must!!!
Live at kraakfestival 2011
Imagine tony conrad & faust reincarnated as a french punk trio in 2011, using only a minimal drum kit, bass and hurdy-gurdy to drone you into another dimension. imagine this as a live performance during kraakfestival after your seventh glass of duvel and among a crowd of head banging music freaks and a spontaneous outburst of fool's dances. then you pretty much get the picture of this recording. for many of visitors a highlight in the festival's history. documented in the lo-fi cassette traditio…
Pau
After blowing everyone’s mind at the last Kraak Festival with an unbelievable (double) performance, and following the release of their first self titled lp, France come back with the definitive drone monument! There is still no better words to describe this unique sound, as the ones we used last year to introduce their debut cassette on 8mm last year:“Europe’s best kept secret comes from south of France, somewhere between the Rhone Alpes region and the Massif Central. Now, If you are wonde…
Untitled
New LP for this really great French trio with elecric bass, drums and hurdy-gurdy. 22 minutes on one side going always in the same direction with the same idea. Will of course satisfy all lovers of Tony Conrad or Henry Flynt's works. Recorded in 2006. Handmade covers. Limited to 500
Deux lives
Europe’s best kept secret comes from south of France, somewhere between the Rhone Alpes region and the Massif Central. Now, If you are wondering how the traditionnal music from there could meet La Monte Young’s “Theatre of ethernal music” in a very abnormal ‘rock’ band, you must hear the sound of France, the incredible project of Jeremie Sauvage (bass), Mathieu Tilly (drums) and Yann Gourdon (electrified hurdy-gurdy).The music of France is built around the idea that a circular rhythm section com…
