- Autoreverse
Nina Garcia (electric guitar) – Arnaud Rivière (prepared mixing desk & repaired electrophone)
Attacks without low-cutting, amplified scrap metal, caught feedbacks, provoked chances, melodies that invite themselves but don’t stay for dinner, rhythmic sketches, constructed and cracked materials, counterpoints to the line… backwards and straight ahead : AUTOREVERSE is the brand-new duo of Nina Garcia aka Mariachi and Arnaud Rivière, who come together around a pile of speakers to build music as immediate as it is incandescent.
AUTOREVERSE is supported by DRAC Île-de-France (Aide au Projet), La Muse en Circuit, Gmem and M2F Créations | Lab GAMERZ.
- Les Zumins
Jean-François Pauvros (music, guitar) – Charles Pennequin (text and voice)
Jean-François Pauvros and Charles Pennequin form a poetic-sound balancing duo, delivering a set of texts and sounds, a sonic pasture delivered to the zoreilles of zautres by two zumins on a zcène.
Both make sounds, singing, tapping, wiggling and shouting poems in rhythm. Both are poets, one with his vocal chords and dictaphone, the other with all sorts of other strings to his musical bow. It’s violent and tender and far from sad, it’s funny too, because the zumins are so funny you wake up dead of laughter every morning.
