Recorded live on April 20, 2002 under the original title “Fragments, segments, séquences,” here is a surprising new collaboration between A_dontigny (Napalm Jazz, morceaux_de_machines) and Diane Labrosse (known for her previous projects with Ikue Mori, Martin Tétreault, Zeena Parkins, Les Poules, etc.) Both have brought in unheard tones yielding an uncommon ground even for these musicians known for their extreme versatility. Between them, a formidable, diabolically telepathic understanding.
A rare and exceptional meeting between two all-terrain improvisers who here treat sonic matter with much tact, overflowing with inventivity.
… einen hochgradig beklemmenden Klangraum…
Harald Wiltsche, Skug (Austria)
… a powerful and ever shifting web of sound and texture.
Stewart Gott, Flux Europa (UK)
… une vraie réussite, tant au niveau du rythme, très maîtrisé par les deux protagonistes, que du point de vue des sonorités exceptionnellement complémentaires.
Grégoire Courtois, Fluctuat (France)
… une créativité jamais prise en défaut et d’un immense plaisir à jongler avec les sources…
P R, codamagazine (France)
Sin duda una puesta arriesgada no apta para todos los oídos.
Alfonso Méndez, Satelitepop (Spain)
… they have an intuitive connection that enhances the bone-chilling tunes they’ve recorded…
Walt Miller, Splendid E-Zine (USA)

Diane Labrosse takes pleasure in juxtaposing lyricism and absurdity, harmony and dissonance, and structure and improvisation. Her fascination with unconventional sounds naturally led her to digital sampling, to which she brings a bruitiste approach. For the last fifteen years she has regularly appeared on contemporary, improvised and avant-garde music stages both in Canada and in Europe, where she has appeared at a number of important festivals. → Full bio
