nuage

noun
Gouttelettes d’eau maintenues en suspension dans l’atmosphère

nuage → cloud;

each track of this album is composed through a process of recording tones, generated from a feedback loop, to a four track cassette deck. One track at a time. As the tape comes to it's end, it is flipped over, and recording is continued unabated. What was a solo improvisation now becomes a duet, as the previously recorded material is played back in reverse. When the tape comes to the end/beginning, we repeat the flip. Now there is a trio, and the musical motifs that have begun to develop are being repeated again, and become familiar. a composition begins to take shape, as the abundance of water molecules coalesce into a cloud, so to do the tones combine and intermingle to create melody and harmony. And a structure emerges from the final pass of the fourth track. Through this process many different entities can be conjured into shape, and yet, as different as they are, they are all still nuage.

the tracks presented here are a collection of these, nuage, as they appear in their completed states, all four tracks woven over and under themselves. Rendering the tapestry that is laid out. Every performance yields a new result, and each physical copy of this release will be accompanied by a full version from start to finish so that the construction will be laid bare as the thread that ravels the rug. Just as each live performance will be its own cloud for its own day or night.

thank you
