Title Description:
This is the 2nd CD released by Eric and Marc The 4 tracks on this CD, Royaume, Matin, Quatre, Bleu, form the soundtrack to a powerful ritual carried out by brothers Eric and Marc Hurtado that celebrate the awesome force and forceful beauty of the natural world. The fantastic sounds you hear are sourced from the a series of field recordings made by ETANT DONNES, but not in the manner of a wildlife documentary. The two brothers approach recordings as part of their whole performance ritual, with great attention to detail given to each context within which these sounds originate. The end result seems of another dimension entirely, but you realise that it is right here, surrounding you. Presented with a 12pp full-colour booklet that includes poetry and stills from the film Royaume, this release firmly establishes ETANT DONNES as one of the most original groups of the moment, achieving a power that is at once primordial and essentially forward-looking.
