Tales from The Source

Description

Conceived from the original soundtrack of the film by Léonard Pongo, Tales From The Source transforms field recordings into a vast electroacoustic tapestry where the boundary between sound documentary and composition gradually fades. Venezuelan producer Bear Bones, Lay Low relies on recordings of rivers, waters, and natural landscapes made by Laszlo Umbreit, which he reworks using synthesizers, samplers, tape loops, and electronic treatments. The different pieces flow seamlessly, favoring the continuity of textures, resonances, and the slow metamorphoses of the sound material rather than the traditional codes of film music. Released by Discrepant in 2026, the album reorganizes the musical material composed for the film into a standalone work, designed for continuous listening independent of images.
