PIERRE GERARD - VOYAGE AU CENTRE
(CDR by Un Arbre En Bois)
From the man behind the label
Un Arbre En Bois,his third release,
but the first under his own name: Pierre Gerard.
Before he had two releases as Maison Medicale.
One very long for solo bass, the shortest one for
voice only and in the middle there is a track
combining both. However besides these two
basic sources, he also uses the computer to
process his sounds. To start with the best thing:
the title piece, the long one is a highly interesting
piece of music. A fine combination of drone like
material and microsound; sometimes the bass
generates sustained drone pieces, but the whole
thing is spiced with collated sounds dropping in and out.
After almost thirty-two minutes this might well be
enough, but there is two more shorter pieces.
In 'Lainage 2' I don't have the idea something
is added to what has been said before, but it's o.k.
'Lainage 1' is a superfluous voice based only,
which as far I am concerned shouldn't have
been included.
