MODIFIED REALITY

About Me

Like for my musical compositions, my collages pictures, indirect, transformed, translate modified realities. I’ve always associated into my concept, the interaction of sounds arts and visual arts. Each of these visual “samples” are the expression from a stare upon what surrounds us. WELCOME HERE IN THE OFFICIAL MYSPACE OF FRANCK BALESTRACCI - Experimental Progressive and Visual Music - The work of Art is not the reflection or the image of the world but it is made in the image of the world. MyGen Profile Generator - I am French musician composer, My musical proposition is an itinerary, an invitation into my world perception, my relation to things, to beings etc. My music is just my way of looking at things it is personal and at the same time it stands somewhere into the collective unconscious, making appear on the surface all these enigmas which turn upside down the structures of our civilization, all these interrogations that we will have to resolve and which are to me inspiration sources. My music is not meant to cut us from reality; it modifies it, the real appears to us then like a flood of successive pictures, a sound imagery constantly modified, where the place of the reality is continually changing. Music is always born in a spontaneous way, the more often with keyboards, but with drums too, it never happens through writing, I am an instinctive musician. Concerning my way of working, I record track after track in technic " overdubs " on the other side, all the musical parts are played in real time, I use no programming. Once the basis of the track is ended then drums and percussion parts are recorded, I go over sound treatments. It is at this moment that I bring in sampled effects, sound effects ( background noises ) a pack of extra musical things and voices that I display and lace at different places of my music, defined in advance by myself and that perfect completely my composition. * For more infos about me please visit my official Website here* Franck Balestracci Website - If you wish to order Franck Balestracci CD's click here Carbon 7 Records - Ma démarche en tant que musicien, en tant qu’être humain est de mettre en images sonores notre environnement, Je suis à la base Batteur et le suis toujours, au fil du temps mon désir de composer ma conduit naturellement à l’étude des claviers en autodidactes, ce qui ma permis par la suite de développer et d’enregistrer les idées musicales auxquelles j’aspirais, Je propose dans un registre associé aux « Musiques nouvelles » un éventail de compositions dont l’esprit est de traduire avec des sons le monde contemporain. Ma proposition musicale est un itinéraire, une invitation dans ma perception du monde, mon rapport aux choses, aux êtres etc. La musique est pour moi un dialogue ininterrompu entre la réalité, et la modification de cette réalité, d’où le titre de ma dernière réalisation discographique « Modified Reality » produit par le label Belge Carbon 7 Records. - Pour de plus amples informations sur ma musique et sur moi, avec d’autres extraits de mes compositions connectez vous sur mon site officiel en cliquant ici * Franck Balestracci Website * - Si vous souhaitez commander les disques de Franck Balestracci cliquez ici Carbon 7 Records
