FURVENT (2 vinyls)

Description

"Music is like the wind, it never stops. It's us who stop listening." --- Alain Damasio ---. Le Grand Sbam, a "bastard music" ensemble, embarks with Furvent on a new octet journey, encountering the wind and natural elements, inspired by A. Damasio's novel 'La Horde du Contrevent' and the symbolism of the I Ching. Carved from the continuous flow of sound, the ensemble's music is a de-fluence, a circumvention, an inflection of air and time. An impetuous sonic flux defying musical boundaries. Nowhere between rock, contemporary music, early music, jazz, and electroacoustic music, it traces sharp lines and curves on the back of our disintegrating present. It plunges the listener into a familiar universe with an unpredictable future, caresses them like a gentle zephyr, and propels them straight into the eye of a cyclone. "As a noise orchestra with an exploded unity, the collective inundates us with sudden warning shots, making its madness one of its greatest resources." --- MUZZART ---.
