[KOHL 026]

FR/////

Sur ce troisième album de l’artiste paru chez Kohlenstoff Records, six pièces dont cinq improvisations électroniques méticuleusement construites séduisent l’auditeur par la variation entre un monde bruyant et agité et un minimalisme plus tranquille, contemplatif.

Alain Lefebvre fait du bruit abstrait en utilisant des consoles, des pédales, des objets amplifiés et des dispositifs lo-fi qu’il pousse au-delà de leurs fonctions normales. Sa musique est parfois interprétée comme poétique. D’abord formé en arts visuels, il performe et improvise à Montréal depuis 2011 et collabore régulièrement avec d’autres artistes.

EN/////

The six-tracks album is the experimental artist’s third digital release with Kohlenstoff Records. It features five thoughtfully constructed improvisations and one piece connecting two field recordings from the artist collection, ranging from the noisy fussiness to the patient minimalism.

Alain Lefebvre makes abstract noise using mixers, pedals, amplified objects and lo-fi devices all of which he pushes well beyond their intended use and capabilities. His music is sometimes construed as poetic. He is trained in visual arts and has been performing and improvising live in Montreal since 2011. He regularly collaborate with other artists.
