Réalisé par le service éducatif du Fresnoy (Tourcoing) avec des classes de collégiens, cet atelier propose la découverte des différents types d'effets utilisés dans la musique amplifiée sous la forme des pédales d'effet. Le groupe est ensuite invité à se produire en improvisation pour prendre en main ces outils sonores. Photo par Arthur Beuve.
I've contributed to some sound effects and music for Elsa Fauconnet's new shortfilm Bye Bye Acropolis. The movie is a very interesting and leftfield take on recent developments of Europe's economical crisis, put in perspective with a past folly for tulips in Holland's XVIIth. Listen to an extract of the audio here :

...was featured in the blog Music You Mind Still Love You in 2011. http://musicyourmindstillloveyou.blogspot.fr/2011/08/przewalskis-horses-story-constantin.html I realize a kind of constancy came to be, spontaneously, in our different releases. They can be sorted by how they sound and how they've been recorded. I'm particularly happy with an open "serie" of tape releases that include Pripyàt Holidays… Continue reading Przewalski’s Horses’ story
Top image found here. I’m proud of finally presenting a project that I have had in my sleeve for a very long time now. John Henry Calvinist’s Shackles First To Fit is the making of David MacKinnon of The Lost Domain fame, his first solo output before King Solomon Hill (later printed by Digitalis). I… Continue reading John Henry Calvinist : Shackles First To Fit
Bogie Bogie is the one-shot recording of an anonymous guitar duo, happened live in a private flat overlooking the river in Liège somewhere around 2008. Destroyed acoustic in the vein of Tsarskoïe Selo Hemophilarmonic clashes with fragmented electric spawned by Przewalski’s Horses technique, and makes for 30 minutes of free improvisation, leaning at times… Continue reading Bogie Bogie : s/t

These last years I played a show at home for a small audience of friends, annually. The Summer 2017 edition included covers from Martin Wheeler's soundtrack for Adieu, Carmine Coppola's work for Apocalypse Now, and a song by Tiny Vipers. Thank you Katy for the photo.
Pauline Oliveros' life and work has been inspirational for me. A few months before she died, I was lucky to see her in a lecture in Brussels, the recording of which served as a basis for that track, composed in collaboration with Jeff Gburek, and published in his Dada-inspired compilation "Extreme Contrast". Collage by Karolina… Continue reading Constantin Dubois-Choulik & Jeff Gburek : Olive-Eros
