Eric La Casa, Seijiro Murayama

Field recordings 1995-2007  by Seijiro Murayama : snare drum + objects and Éric La Casa: microphones + field recordings (1995-2007).  Drawing by Tomoya Izumi. 'What makes one a musician, a composer? It happens only when one succeeds in giving life to music, a certain presence. I don't hesitate, even though I am not a writer, a painter etc., to say the same thing about them. For this composition, 'Supersedure', I met Eric. It seems to me that we share an artistic, but maybe also a general attitude about life : approaching a 'stranger' to do something constructive with them. Generally through this process, one becomes less certain of one's own identity, might feel oneself as a stranger or feel completely transformed by the other, who could be one's 'alter ego' in spite of all the superficial differences.
