about

Where do the labels of "space music" or "cosmic music" that characterize some currents of electronic music since the 70s come from?

First of all, there is the use of reverberations and delays, which open up new listening spaces, multidimensional, evolving and immersive...

There is also the opening of new spaces of travel and exploration, offered to the imagination of the listener, who lets himself be carried by the waves of sounds...

And of course, there is the particular poetry of the nomenclature of stars and constellations, Alpha Centauri, Galaxy Cygnus A, and of the astronomical universe, Planetary Unfolding, Astronomy Domine, to limit myself to some famous titles...

The link with science fiction, its cinema, its literature, is also obvious.

Space music and cosmic music are arts of imagination and escape.

I find a good part of my inspiration in this current and this imagination, and "Far Away" is a new attempt to explore distant and unknown universes, where time, space, geometry, physical laws are unrecognizable...

These three compositions are a new invitation to travel, eyes closed, in the immersion of electronic soundscapes, between stellar lyricism and cosmological abstraction...
