Temps Espace consists of two pieces of DIY “musique concrète”. DIY because it was made outside of any academecism and done with the equipment that I owned at the time of the recordings, appropriate or not.  Two tracks Inter…, in-between : one composition, intermezzo, was done 14 years ago and the other one, interfluve, 2 years ago. The connection between those tracks is the original sound material which was recorded at about the same time (early 2000s). Time and/or space are the central in the two compositions.  The first track result from the in-between from Deleuze and Guattari’s "A thousand plateaus" and the second one is taken from the space in between two talwegs. One where the sound has been deteriorated through the mixing process of a cassette 4 tracks tape recorder and the other one where the erosion is the essential question. But two tracks so different that they are separated on each side of the LP and with the recommendation to not listen to them one after the other.
