Vinyl LP pressing. 2022 release. For his Shelter Press debut, Thomas Bonvalet aka L'ocelle Mare presents an album that's considerably more than the sum of it's conceptual parts, constructing "anti-compositions" that are - on the face of it - utilitarian rotations through an array of instruments, with a tracklisting that reads like nothing more than a basic gear list. Through some sort of alchemy, the recordings transform into a poetic body of work, an engrossing sleight of hand that lands somewhere between Pierre Bastien's mechanical installations and the oblique mysticism of sacred music, buried between the notes.
