Recently I have worked on new pieces with Ensemble Klang, the Ives Ensemble, Orkest De Volharding, Natasha Lohan, the Knights, the National Chamber Choir of Ireland, The Irish Chamber Orchestra and Ensemble Ascolta. New works are planned for Crash Ensemble, the National Symphony Orchestra of Ireland, Theatre of Voices, Isabelle O'Connell and a one hour opera for the Ives Ensemble.

    made it back from the doorn grand, think I left me liver behind though... would love to come to Berlin, but I got Mick Hucknle singing in my ear a lot these days (money to tight to mention!) Been listening to your music a lot of late, sheer genius!  Come to Birmingham (its the new Berlin) your mate Louis will be here next week

    Working only with Viveka Eriksson voice
    on Forecast Proof, I saved a lot of energy by not
    singing. In two takes, she can nail down an abstract melody and
    almost nothing will sound out of place !




    Because I went for a straight forward
    approach with Viveka, everything vocal on Forecast Proof
    sounds more cool, emotionally urgent and less stretched by the
    intellect.

    Hello to everybody ! Great news !!

    Audiomachie / Logomachie

    (Berger rond, #VVSBR05)
    (2009) SOCAN

    1) Audiomachie (6:21)
    2) Une ombre vacille en serpentin virevoltant (6:58)
    3) Bruissement de griserie (9:55)
    4) Propensity to go forward (7:36)
    5) Drawing of a Back with a Mouth (4:24)
    6) Second Life (3:50)

    (39:12)

    - The project was about trying to explore different poetry styles, always with different instrumentations and musical structures because I don't want to repeat a single one
    - An album not directly linked to the four previous ones, but with the impossible to avoid come back to fetish themes
    - Second Life is about the technological phenomena, but I got better things to do with my life than spending it on the clone of a capitalist society
    - We might as well hope for a real bankrupcy for all of us, it would be worth it to kill capitalism

    Most of you will just want to listen to the music made available. Well, here it is with great streaming (right after MA VIE est ICI which is a reminder of my previous album conclusion)

    Ah Big Anders. I see you've got a gig in Corkus (I'm half Cork you know, I keep it quiet). I like your New York piece, it made sad and then happy in the second part. We think we might come to Berlin from mid-June to mid-July. Are you going to be around for some serious craic?
