Sylvain Monchocé (Gayageum, taegeum, contrabass flute and alto saxophone) and Andrea Tonero (prepared piano and electronics) are two musicians from the Conservatoire Royal de Mons, where they met and began playing experimental music together during their studies of classical flute and piano. Right now Sylvain studies free contemporary improvisation at the Hochschule für muzik Basel and Andrea is studying composition at the Conservatoire Royal de Mons with Claude Ledoux. Still deeply involved in making music together, they always seek new ways to create sound, structures for improvisation and interactions between musicians.
Music made post lockdown but without meeting, we sent each other layers of sound for the other to have a canvas for improvisation. There was no visual contact nor clues about the evolution of the music, but we tried to keep it fresh and alive despite this constraint, and with as little editing as possible gave back improvisations on top of those free form backing tracks.

Dark and experimental tones resonate throughout, echoing the depth and complexity of its origins. This glitchy electronic music seems to capture the very essence of Iran's current situation, serving as a sonic reflection of its intricate dynamics and emotions. It's precisely the kind of sound one might anticipate arising from such circumstances, masterfully blending art with the pulse of contemporary events. ghalamdar

This complition of Iranian artists is absolutely mindblowing. So many styles of Experimental Ambient and Electronic compositions. Each artist on the release molds their own uniqueness into their track. Overall, Visions of Darkness is a must have for any avant-garde music fan. Gwynncore
