About Me


"We’re both looking at the same moon, in the same world. We’re connected to reality by the same line. All I have to do is quietly draw it toward me."
H. Murakami.
I was too lazy to write a bio, and a friend (Toma, Silent Bells) did it for me, so here it is :
(I’ll translate it in english soon, but not now because i’m still lazy :p )
Sumire est en quelque sorte un alter-ego, gravitant autour de sa compagne tel un sputnik autour de la Terre. Plus qu’un prête-nom, elle offre une personnalité aux oeuvres de Aura, musicienne bien réelle.
Fondatrice du netlabel français Cold Room, Aura passe désormais de l’autre côté du miroir, portant à bout de bras ce projet personnel pour lequel elle dévoue plus que des heures. Hautement féminine, naturellement intimiste, aussi mystérieuse et touchante que musique puisse l’être, Sumire devient la bande-son analogique des émotions concrètes de sa partenaire.
Guitariste ferue d’experimentations sonores, Aura semble puiser son inspiration au sein même de la vie quotidienne, là d’où jaillit souvent l’imprévu, qui parle à l’imaginaire. Et lorsque les émotions se font brûlantes ou glaciales, on ne sait plus vraiment des deux entités laquelle a écrit et laquelle interprète.
