Prele : "Courtis_Matsunaga" Anla Courtis + Kouhei Matsunaga

Anla Courtis, once leader of the strange Argentine group Reynols, and Kouhei Matsunaga, aquatic bird from Osaka, embark on a quest for a playing field via a working method comprised of four stages of cooperation : solo, remix, telepathic collaboration, and real (i.e. physical) collaboration. Guitar, fragments of clarinet, voice, fingernails, electronic devices, plastic bags, are all witnesses to an intercultural communication more or less at a distance. Drones and hypnotic layers oscillate the sonic space, creating swelling turbulence and a whirling mass evocative of animal laughter. Technology meets myth and disorder. A crystallization of misunderstandings and accidents. Note the participation of the actionist Rudolf Eb.er in the eighth track.

Anla Courtis, ancien meneur de l’étrange groupe argentin Reynols et Kouhei Matsunaga, oiseau aquatique d’Osaka partent à la quête d’un terrain de jeu au travers d’une grille de travail comprenant quatre stades de coopération : solo, re-mixage, collaboration télépathique, collaboration réelle (ou physique). Guitare, fragment de clarinette, voix, ongles, dispositifs électroniques, sac en plastique sont autant de témoins d’une communication interculturelle plus ou moins distanciée. Drone et nappes hypnotiques font osciller l’espace sonore jusqu’à susciter des turbulences enflant en une sarabande évoquant le rire animal. La technologie rencontre le mythe et le désordre. Une cristallisation de malentendus et de hasards. A noter la participation de l’actioniste Rudolf Eb.er dans le 8ème morceau.
