Restocked, last copies “A Blue Book (WR 68) is a suite of seven pieces featuring the team-up of Lionel Marchetti and Olivier Capparos, with the the addition of Yôko Higashi on the final cut. Marchetti and Capparos impressed us in 2009 with their Equus (Grand Véhicule) on Pogus, and Marchetti has also created some fine collaborations with Higashi. Another wonderful set here, making use of Marchetti’s characteristic voice elements that are recorded and chosen with the judicious care of a micro-sur…

Equus is a collaborative work of musique concrète recorded in 2001-02 on a commission from the INA GRM It is truly a delight for Pogus to add this title to our catalog. As Capparos notes: Equus guides us through human memory and history. It may sound a bit strange that sound & music would appear as a vehicle, or as we had cast a lead into a labyrinth. This brings us to the question of whether we are alive or not; travelling the path throughout these soundings would drive us down and up our consc…

For Les 120 Jours, Michel Chion, Lionel Marchetti and Jérôme Noetinger assembled a common bank of many original sounds which each of them had worked on, transformed and re-composed in his own style.

Musique concrète composed in 1997/98 for the Festival Musique Action, 16 May 1998, at Vandoeuvre-lès-Nancy, France.Limited edition of 100…

L'incanDescence De l'étoile is a Musique Concrète piece based on the everlasting universal (re)cycle. It is it's own modulator, oscillating at immense speed, almost standing still. The composer has interpreted and given an auditive representation of these cosmic forces, melted together in a solid musical gesture , perpetuated on a little disc. Captured time, but where to next? L'incanDescence De l'étoile is a great example of the fine craftmanship of Marchetti, it's been composed up to it's most…
