Two Daughters marque un tournant.
Après plusieurs sorties remarquées, Méryll passe clairement un step avec un album qui permet enfin de retrouver sur support la folie hypnotisante de ses perfs live. Ses concerts à la force tellurique, pendant lesquels l’artiste s’engage physiquement dans la matière-son, de manière instinctive et radicale, ont enfin leur pendant au sein de la carrière discographique de l’artiste.
Armé d’une production rendant justice à sa maîtrise fine et experte du spectre hertzien, ce double LP fait toujours la part belle au concept de sculpture abstraite du matériau sonore cher à l’artiste (qui, on le rappelle, est sculpteur de bois de métier), mais nous surprend par la présence de magnifiques consonances et d’un travail (poly)rythmique remarquable.
Expérimental mais tubuesque. Mental mais cool. Abstrait mais intense. Des adjectifs comme des pôles magnétiques opposés, normalement incompatibles en musique, mais qui finissent par cohabiter dans ce double album, regroupant par ailleurs extraits de lives (Sonic Protest, Plein Bruit) et commande (GRM), pour la première fois sur disque.
Ne manquait plus qu’une gemme sur le diadème d’artiste complet : un album de haut vol mêlant des travaux compositionnels poussés et lives improvisés, tout rendant justice à la science du son de Méryll.
Two Daughters marks a turning point.
After several notable releases, Méryll has clearly taken a step forward with an album that finally captures the hypnotic madness of his live performances. His earth-shattering concerts, during which the artist physically engages with the sound material in an instinctive and radical way, finally have their counterpart in the artist's recording career.
Armed with a production that does justice to his fine and expert mastery of the Hertzian spectrum, this double LP continues to give pride of place to the concept of abstract sculpture of sound material dear to the artist (who, it should be remembered, is a wood sculptor by trade), but surprises us with the presence of magnificent consonances and remarkable (poly)rhythmic work.
Experimental but catchy. Mental but cool. Abstract but intense. Adjectives like opposite magnetic poles, normally incompatible in music, but which end up coexisting in this double album, which also includes live excerpts (Sonic Protest, Plein Bruit) and commissions (GRM), for the first time on record.
All that was missing was a gem to crown the complete artist: a high-flying album combining advanced compositional work and improvised live performances, all doing justice to Méryll's science of sound.
