Airchamber trio is an ensemble based on free improvisation, visuals and ready made soundtracks.
While coming from different background, we started free-improvising trying to focus our ideas and practice after practice, improvisation after improvisation it soon took shape.
We use common instruments like sax, electric cello and electric guitar but were into experimentation, into sound research (...whatever it means) and also into electronics: thats why we process the majority of the sounds through our beloved laptops and/or pedal effects trying to add something to the chemistry of our music.
We also use contact microphones to voice whatever it fits well with what were doing, be it a piece of plastic or just the surface of an instruments (is it the real voice of the voiceless in music?).
Our electro-acoustic sound is the material that we use for trying to cross-over the musical genres.
Were a trio, as suggested by the number at the end of our name, but we may increased the line up (musicians, video-makers, etc.), according to what we/they want to achieve.
We worship improvisation and it will remain one of our constitutive elements but not the only one of course. Are we really free?is our music really free?...are we ourselves?...who knowsunder a relativistic perspective to enter the world of improvisation could mean to enter the world of endless possibilities but we still think this extract from Derek Bailey says a lot:
"The lack of precision over its [free improvs] naming is, if anything, increased when we come to the thing itself. Diversity is its most consistent characteristic. It has no stylistic or idiomatic commitment. It has no prescribed idiomatic sound. The characteristics of freely improvised music are established only by the sonic-musical identity of the person or persons playing it."
Our first cd "Crumble" is out on Amirani Records !
“Tracks are excerpts of various improvised sessions, there’s no overdub and most of material has not been processed, re-arranged or layered..
It has been all simply edited and mixed according to what we consider its/our…natural/best…shape/solution/ideaâ€
