From Qabar PR:
French experimental trio Hifiklub’s surprise collaborative album Rupture, featuring Pearl Jam/Soundgarden drummer Matt Cameron, producer Daffodil, and experimental jazz trumpet player Reuben Lewis, is out now via Electric Valley Records. Entirely recorded remotely during this quarantine, this decorative collaboration is available on two different variants of vinyl (black and pink) and digital formats.
The instrumental character of this project, made up of six distinct movements, is only shaken by rare vocal interventions supporting passages where the music becomes more intense. This real sound puzzle assembled by Daffodil reveals the darkness and modernity characteristic of his latest productions. His meticulous mixing work allows this 25-minute musical piece, thought of as a whole, to evolve in the sandstone of unexpected rhythmic and harmonic breaks during which the trumpet and electronic sounds incessantly revive the machine.
The 25-minute of sonic expedition appears in a single piece of music containing the following six movements:
01. Sans préavis
02. L’air d’un vaincu
03. Navire de sauvetage
04. Terrain vague
05. Le temps gagné
06. Cavale
