| Ron Anderson (The Infusion, actuellement en tournée mondiale) nous a envoyé un petit mail. Le Live vous en fait profiter. |
| The Infusion had two great
shows in Canada at the Festival International de Musique
Actuelle de Victoriaville and Festival
Musique de Creation , amazingly we made it across the border
and had some very nice shows in the USA with our last show in Brooklyn this
Wednesday the 28th night at the Pourhouse located at 790 Metropolitan Avenue,
8pm. It's very easy to get there.... L" train, Graham Avenue
stop, one block East, on the corner of Metropolitan and Humboldt. Please try and make this concert, it might be your only chance to see these two great French musicians, we really have been playing incredibly well. The Infusion: What happens when a musician from North Africa adds electronics to his acoustic guitar and develops an interest in free improvisation and the avant-garde of Europe? What would it sound like if he teamed up with two "Rock" musicains with similar interests, one from Europe and one from North America? The answer is this CD. Camel Zekri on acoustic guitar and electronics who now lives in Paris, a descendent from generations of Algerian musicains. He saw a similar link between the free improvisation of Europe and the traditional music of Africa. Forming Festival de l'Eau (see The Wire magazine Feb. 2002) he brought Europeans to Africa to make some new and unrehearsed music. But Camel is just one third of the story of The Infusion. Olivier Paquotte is a Bassist who lives in Nancy, France who uses the Bass more for it's sonic capabilities than it's rhythmic. Using feedback, distortion, a slide on the strings, he gives the instrument a wide range, sometimes like a guitar, sometimes like a drum. Likewise Ron Anderson gets many unusual sounds from the three instruments he plays on this recording. Trumpet through echo and other effects, drum machine played in real time with real fingers, and electric guitar blending and working together in rhythm with the other two musicians. Improvised live in the studio in Vandoeuvre, plus excerpts from concerts in Paris and Lille makes this an all French recording from the label 33revpermi. |
