"Le tombeau d'Edgard Varèse" by Franck Smith
In tribute to avant-garde composer Edgard Varèse (1883-1965), this new work for percussive devices and electronics presents a long posthumous march w/ dark orchestral colors and crepuscular percussion pulses. A quite mysterious funeral cortège in memory of a true sound-alchemist...

NEW! SEPTEMBER 2007
Qoo-ij orium – Trompe-l'oeil & bagatelles
Contains a collection of neo-archaisms (sic) conceived & directed by Franck Smith. A 24 track-suite displaying a kind of new primitive music w/ hybrid electronics and various instruments.

NEW! JANUARY 2008
Qiipnm'id Yorgomnüg – Monolith
A surprising piece for pure electronics, mouth organ, metal string and contact microphone is gradually down-graded to reach infra-bass sound-sculpting. A work in 4 parts between noise-trajectory study and signal-loss testing.
N.B. Monolith IV cannot be heard on mediocre sound systems, if using headphones beware of high volume listening.

NEW! NOVEMBER 2007
Qiipnm'id Yorgomnüg – A silica(te) replica
Precise and quasi analitic inventory of sonic equations and sound-formulas that conjugate scientific qualities of experimental composition with synthetic aspects of a raw material empirically obtained and selected. Made of shamanic-like sonorities (such as gongs, metal bells, deep frame drums...) viewed via a digital/analogic electronic prism using real-time treatments — A silica(te) replica presents for the first time on disc the peculiar language of enigmatic figure Qiipnm'id Yorgomnüg.
N.B. this recording documents orginal sound-sources transfered onto vinyl (12''/33 rpm), slowed down and altered...
