   About Interceiving

This is brand new. Lela, aka Marielle Quesney, directed this 30 second ad for the Montreal Art Tattoo show, which is in September. It features an excerpt from our track 'Wrong Oboe'. Dig it!

Ce clip est tout neuf. Il est réalisé par Marielle Quesney, alias Lela. C'est une publicité pour la conférence de Tattooage à Montréal au mois de septembre. C'est notre chanson 'Wrong Oboe' qui joue.

ENGLISH

Interceiving is all about breaking new ground in improvised noise-based music. Creating fluid, organic music that breathes. Creating music within the narrow window between controllable and uncontrollable noise. Nurturing brute electrical material and coaxing a beautiful musicality out of it.

The four-piece Montreal band has been exploring the music of noise for years. Drums and bass are the immediately recognizable elements of the sound. But the band also harnesses noise from a variety of sources—like controlled feedback—to play along with in free-improvisation. No beat-making, sequencing or sampling. Doing it all live is what sets Interceiving apart; creating energetic music with a uniquely organic feel.

Yes, it’s weird. Yes, it’s chaotic. It’s all those things found elsewhere in the genre. But it’s more than that. It’s richly textured. It’s heavy. And it’s in the groove. It has a depth that reveals that there’s nothing haphazard about this rendering of random noise.

The visceral music has found an immediate niche in the film industry. In addition to consideration in a major studio film, the music of Interceiving has been featured in many independent short and feature films including "Dead Space" (National Film Board, dir. Marielle Quesney and Jean Labourdette).

Interceiving’s live shows go beyond the conventional idea of musical improvisation: there are no keys, no time signatures, no structures, no themes. Each performance exposes the raw creativity behind the music as audiences witness music emerge from seemingly shapeless noise.

With the release of their eponymous debut LP in June 2008, Interceiving is poised to introduce noise as music to a whole new audience. Come and groove to the electrical malfunction and surrender to the high-decibel Now!

FRANÇAIS

Interceiving créé de la musique improvisée basée sur des phrases mélodiques et musicales de bruits électroniques. C’est une musique qui respire, une musique qui se joue dans l’espace floue entre le contrôlable et le chaotique. Le groupe cherche à sculpter cette matière brute pour en révéler la beauté musicale.

Le quatuor montréalais explore la musicalité des bruits depuis des années. En plus de la batterie et la basse, le groupe incorpore des sons de sources variées, comme les courts circuits audio (aussi appelés ”feedback”) contrôlés. En modifiant la tonalité et le rythme du feedback, ce dernier inspire des phrases musicales.

Le groupe n’utilise pas de séquence, d’échantillonnage ou de ”beats”. Le tempo respire car l’énergie circule naturellement, sans être limité par un tempo numérique parfait. C’est une musique de textures, une musique intense, qui révèle sa profondeur sonore avec le temps.

Cette musique abstraite et évocatrice a contribué à l’ambiance et la texture de plusieurs courts et longs métrages indépendants, dont le film Dead Space (Office National du film du Canada, réal. Marielle Quesney et Jean Labourdette).

En spectacle, Interceiving improvise ces “jams” de bruits, révélant ainsi la musicalité des bruits à l’état brut. Avec le lancement de leur premier album (éponyme) à l’été 2008, le groupe compte exposer un public grandissant à cette musique particulière.

DEAD SPACE

Below is the trailer for a film called Dead Space, which Interceiving contributed music to. The music you hear in the trailer is also Interceiving's. See this film, if you can. It's a very engaging and fascinating documentary.
