Now that the Ini.itu label is saying goodbye (see also elsewhere), boss Sylvain (who adds Van Iniitu, which means 'from Iniitu', very clever) has time to explore other interests and one of that is a place
in Belgium, in the countryside, where he and his friends have a whole lot of devices and apparatus waiting for musicians to be used. Sylvain did a session there, in which he played objects and electronics, along with Thomas Coquelet (harmonium, bass drum, inside piano, objects, contact microphones) and Quintin Conrate (snare, cymbals, objects). I must admit I had not heard of these players. Sylvain himself did, as Blindhead, the inaugural release on Iniitu, as well as a piece
on the farewell one (see elsewhere), so I heard a bit of his work with field recordings. The recording here is 'an unedited recording of the first improvisation session', and its some very powerful music
indeed. Most of these thirty-three minutes are quite loud and very direct when it comes to the recording. A stereo microphone set up and everybody is close by so sometimes the sound is pretty much distorted of cracking objects, the rubbing of surfaces, the hitting and stroking of instruments; acoustic abuse plays an important role, but very much also the electronics have an equally important role, which provide a sometimes drone like background that towards the end,
the last one-third of it, becomes more electronic, quieter and bringing the improvisation into a wholly different area. Almost like two different aspects of the same thing, which I thought was an interesting move, albeit one that was probably not planned. Quite an intense release of some sonic overload, and it raises a few questions; why only thirty-three minutes? Why unedited? Why not record some more and edit the whole thing in a somewhat longer release? Maybe something to consider for next time, I thought. (FdW)
