Description :Following Faux-Jumeaux (CD released on Tzadik), where I developed the auto-sampling process (composing a piece of music using only samples of the instruments appearing in that piece of music) around the concept of the double or replica, I chose with Circulations to push the same method much further by approaching it from a more pragmatic angle. The performance falls halfway between mixed concert music (referenced by the instrument + tape device) and live electronics. Even though the musicians never actually play together, they are nonetheless virtually brought together by the presence of the tape, which blends and fuses their instrumental sounds as a whole. By putting side by side in a near-didactical way several compositional stages, two types of writings ('abstract' and 'concrete'), this process invites from the listener a cross-reading of the work, matching each instrumental part to its electronic evolution: a sequence of vibraphone arpeggios elsewhere becomes a click'n'cut gimmick, a guitar melody transforms into an ambient loop, and a sustained note on the bass clarinet gives birth to a rumbling in the subfrequency range. So many potentialities comprised in the abstractly written material, but also in the accidents of its recording, its 'mise en son.'If this correspondence is not entirely rigorous, it is to leave enough room for the endlessly stretchable feedback interplay - or circulation - between abstract and concrete. This album represents one moment in the mutation generated by this movement.' (Pierre-Yves Macé)
