{"product_id":"jan-jelinekoi-les-ox_cinema-du-look_2025_dif","title":"Cinéma du Look","description":"For her second album, \"AI les Axes,\" Parisian visual artist and composer Aude Van Wyller, aka Oï les Ox (The Death of Rave, Primordial Void, Kraak), returns with a labyrinthine suite of tortuous electronics and oblique musical forms. Exploring themes of technological dysfunction and loss of identity, \"AI les Axes\" proves to be a captivating fever dream, an otherworldly malfunction.Blending protean vocalizations and effervescent soundscapes, Oï les Ox incorporates deconstructed dialogue in her native French, evoking AI-generated vocabulary and syntax. The result is a deconstructed work, arguably of greater depth and intimacy than her acclaimed debut album, \"Crooner qui coule sous les clous,\" released in 2020 on The Death of Rave and Primordial Void labels.With this latest opus, Oï les Ox (dis)assembles discordant compositions, rich with vertiginous sonic poetry and fragmented, expansive electronics, creating agile music, all in flux and slippage. Across seven tracks, Van Wyller incorporates an unrestrained multiplicity of distorted synthesizers, oscillating arias, and fugitive sound sources, from the singular eruption of a phone notification to the intoxicating inversion of drum and bass\/jungle percussion, as well as the acoustic bubbling of a myriad of sound objects. Oï les Ox thus envisions a space of deluge and complexity, where aesthetic reiteration evokes a sense of déjà vu, and where vocal intonations become like a mental map, opening multiple paths of possibilities.Van Wyller describes \"AI les Axes\" as an album where boundaries blur, in the intervals between tracks that collapse through shifting transitions, and in the temporal distortion generated by plays of inversion and contortion. In a work that represents an odyssey in search of a lost identity - to reclaim a concrete individuality - the voice of a central figure leads the way while duplicating itself. The primary identity then finds itself disoriented within a choir of artificial voices, surrounded by an ocean of uncontrollable noises. In many ways, \"AI les Axes\" sounds like the sound of disintegration.The seven tracks that make up \"AI les Axes\" are the fruit of a change in process. While previously Van Wyller favored a methodology of patient, progressive editing and live rehearsals, the music here is raw, the result of single-take composition. The goal of this new approach is to generate a fluidity of expression, creating a sense of development through simple yet captivating constructions, temporal forms, and cyclical arrangements. In designing this world of free movement, defined by a profusion of harmonic and rhythmic possibilities, Van Wyller reflects the disruption of physical gesture and autonomy in our technology-determined contemporary existence.","brand":"Jan Jelinek\/Oi les Ox","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56389125636440,"sku":null,"price":20260306.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/5050580847354.jpg?v=1768934812","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en\/products\/jan-jelinekoi-les-ox_cinema-du-look_2025_dif","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
