P'Tit Belliveau - Un homme et son piano - VINYL LP

The Path of the Clouds, Marissa Nadler's ninth solo album, is the most stylistically adventurous, lyrically transfixing, and melodically sophisticated collection of songs in her already rich discography. Gripped by wanderlust while suddenlyhousebound at the start of the pandemic in 2020, Nadler escaped into writing, and came back with a stunning set of songs about metamorphosis, love, mysticism, and murder. Blurring the line between reality and fantasy and moving freely between past and present, these 11 deeply personal, self-produced songs find Nadler exploring new landscapes, both sonic and emotional.Nadler tracked the skeletons of the songs at home and then sent them to some choice collaborators, including experimental harpist Mary Lattimore and Simon Raymonde, the Cocteau Twins bassist and her Lost Horizons collaborator. Multi-instrumentalist Milky Burgess, having recently worked on the soundtrack to the film Mandy, adds intricate melodic power throughout the album. Jesse Chandler, Nadler's piano teacher (as well as a member of Mercury Rev and Midlake), plays winding woodwinds and plaintive piano to luminous effect. Fellow singer-songwriter Emma Ruth Rundle contributes a slinky guitar solo on InchTurned Into Air,Inch while Black Mountain's Amber Webber steps in as a vocal foil to Nadler, a ghostly apparition in the distance of InchElegy.Inch Seth Manchester, known for his work with Lingua Ignota, Battles, and Lightning Bolt, mixed the album at Machines with Magnets in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. Manchester added dimension to the songs' atmospheric beauty with screeching feedback and distorted guitars. Stripped of the ethereal reverb that often swaddles her resonant vocals, Nadler's delivery now stings and pierces with newfound immediacy and confidence.The Path of the Clouds showcases the power of an artist at the peak of her powers nearly 20 years into an acclaimed c

It was through the process of becoming a father that Philippe B found the inspiration to write this new album comprised of 10 songs centered around the changing dynamics and cycles of life. With his vulnerable poetry, which is emblematic of his penchant for autofiction, the singer-songwriter offers a touching album, in which the pronouns InchyouInch and InchweInch acquire entirely new meanings.

UMAN's Chaleur Humaine, the debut album from the French duo of musicians and siblings Danielle and Didier Jean, resurfaces for the first time since it's original in 1992. While history, both private and public, is scattered with creative relationships between siblings that simply didn't Inchwork, Inch UMAN's story is uniquely different and defined by this bond, and a shared journey impressing footprints along an adventurous musical landscape. Prior to Chaleur Humaine, Danielle and Didier recorded two albums of pop songs met mostly with ambivalence, inspiring them to escape the expectations of the French music industry and build their own studio in Orsay, a suburb south of Paris. Chaleur Humaine was a modus operandi for their new, liberated perspective and space freedom to develop ideas independently; to cross-pollinate genres and abandon them altogether; to improvise and experiment in new musical configurations.Within their recording sanctuary, Danielle and Didier embraced cutting edge consumer music technology to inform the album's esoteric, textural characteristics. This is especially notable in the processing of Danielle's voice, inventively sampled, shifted and processed, then woven through Didier's dream worlds. This interpretation of technology and economy of sound, gives Chaleur Humaine a soft and impressionistic sense of surrealism, guided by a human sincerity and sublimated into a landscape that feels pastoral yet universal. UMAN, the name which binds Danielle and Didier musically, resembles InchhumanInch in many Romance languages but signals a spirit from a deeper earth force. Similarly, UMAN reinvents language in a postmodern way to create a harmony and truth that exists within and beyond human recognition. A poem, at once a theme and mantra, recurs throughout Chaleur Humaine InchIt's this force, almost animal, warm, like a kiss, fresh like the morning
