      • Jaga Jazzist - Montreal Jazz Festival

        JAGA JAZZIST; Emerging from the Oslo underground scene, this Ninja Tune instrumental electro-jazz collective finally returns after their explosive Festival performance in 2011. Considered trailblazers of the Scandinavian nu-jazz movement and hailed unanimously by the trade press, these debonair Norwegians still enjoy blending their eclectic and hypnotic sounds and creating complex digressions as they soar off in search of mutated, experimental musical worlds. It's a complex yet perfect marriage between man, technology and music. (57 min)

      • Laurent De Wilde and Otisto 23 'Fly' with Guillaume Perret - Banlieues Bleues

        LAURENT DE WILDE AND OTISTO 23 'FLY!' INVITE GUILLAUME PERRET LIVE AT LA DYNAMO; With Nico Ticot (video) Xlrproject; Part Two of Laurent de Wilde and Otisto 23's musical experiments. This time, they have transcended themselves. Let us go back to the basic concept: a piano and a computer - Laurent generates sounds on his instrument, with the keyboard of course, but also the strings, felt, wood, metal, anything that can be plucked, scraped and rubbed, producing an infinitely varied sound matter that Otisto processes in real time through his computer, bouncing it back to Laurent, who then responds with new sounds... and this is how the music develops. After the experience of their first album 'PC Pieces', de Wilde et Otisto are meeting again on stage and in the studio. More intuitive, their music now involves more piano and electronics, as in 'Lost' with its long cadence on the piano, meandering through the filters of the machine, and 'B Flat Seven' where a single B Flat generates an extensive technoid epic in seven tableaux. From this encounter, a deeply organic music is born, a dialogue, a conversation which at times solidifies into an incandescent ball of sound or slims down to the most delicate hieroglyphs. An anecdote involves a herd of cows, grazing in the vicinity of the studio where the album was being recorded, to the accompaniment of a colony of flies, who soon invaded the room where the two musicians were working. There ensued a track entitled 'Eau de Mouche n°5', and the realisation that the insects' constant buzzing was influencing their entire repertoire. FLY! invites us to defy gravity, carried aloft by an intimate and precious musical conversation. (75 min)

Seeing huge potential in her, Gilles invited her to London to perform at the album launch event, where she enchanted the packed out audience, and it was decided she should record a solo project for Brownswood Recordings / Havana Cultura. 1.Madres; 2.Crystal; 3.Dust; 4.El Ruso; 5.Drama; 6.Sin Empezar; 7.Don't Unplug My Body; 8.Stuck; Recorded on July 6th 2015 at the Sea Theater, Sete, Worlwide festival, France; TV Director, Alexandre Buisson (73 min)

      • Pneuma, choreography by Carolyn Carlson

        Pneuma - Air and dreams; Choreography by Carolyn Carlson; Opéra National de Bordeaux Ballet; Composer, Gavin Gryars; National Bordeaux Aquitaine orchestra; Conductor, Pieter-Jelle de Boer; In March 1999, Carolyn Carlson and the Opéra de Bordeaux ballet premiered 'Hydrogen Jukebox', a fascinating choreography with music by Philip Glass. The choreographer is back this season with an exciting project drawing its inspiration from an essay by French philosopher Gaston Bachelard, 'Air and dreams'. This time the music is by Gavin Bryars, a 'post-minimalist' composer who previously worked with William Forsythe, Lucinda Childs, Maguy Marin, Jirí Kylián and Merce Cunningham. Carlson's choreography explores the duality of the human being, between body and soul, gravity and elevation, matter and mind. An ode to human nature, at once passionate and poetic. Recorded at the Opéra National de Bordeaux on March 2014; TV Director, Yan Proefrock (85 min)
