./morFrom/.is a swiss based duo - Jeroen Visser (harmonium, electronics, binaurals) & Julien Baillod (guitar, electronics, samples). We are interested in acoustic spaces, sonic textures, movies, sculptures. We like working with analog and digital instruments on the limits of sounds and public domain environments to create free musical stories." Chain DLK : "./morFrom/. are a duo formed by Swiss musician Julien Baillod (guitar, electronics, laptop) and his Dutch colleague Jeroen Visser (harmonium, binaural recordings, electronics, laptop), who met while playing in Neuchatel's Ensemble Rayé. As you can guess by reading the instruments used, 'Here & There' is a cross dialogue between improvised acoustic/electronic music and concrete recordings. Recorded in two days in an Amsterdam studio, the sessions have not been overdubbed, which is always a bit risky for this kind of experiments - and 'Here & There' actually suffers from some stale or unbalanced passage here and there. Most of the performance, however, is luckily successful, making for a fascinating flow of everyday sounds and oblique playing. 'Oh No - This Is the Dream' is the shortest and more standard-sounding (so to speak) track, with guitar and harmonium merging with recordings of a cock and passing cars; not that far from Tape or F. S. Blumm. The rest of the CD is more uneven and mysteryous, and could well appeal to fans of the Metamkine catalogue.
