About
New album " Desperate Islands "
produced by Dirty Demos...
Reviews by frans de waard for vital weekly in the netherlands.
.. Aarde, being the duo of Lois Laplace and Guillaume Gargaud, already surprised us in a pleasant way with 'A Whole Day' (see Vital Weekly 601) and here return with 'Desperate Islands', a shorter release then before with six pieces continuing their interest in somewhat more crude variations on glitch and micro ambient. There is guitar doodling, sturdy sound processing, a bit more louder things then before and sometimes totally in line with Line, such as 'Looking At The Coast', with its icy, glacier feel and sustained bowed sounds. Like before I think this is a really nice job, well produced and nothing much new. But as said before, sometimes that is not necessary.
Bio ///////
Aarde was formed in 2004 when Guillaume Gargaud met Loïs Laplace and joined forces for some improvised sessions, searching for a deeper exploration in electronic music. During this time collaborating, Guillaume has integrated prepared guitar in his computer music.
Guillaume Gargaud is a French musician known for guitar work and his love of improvisation. He studied the art of improvisation at IMA, France from 1999-2001. After this Guillaume joined Zwann Ei collective who specialise in sound and image creations and how they relate to the body. In 2007 Guillaume also started participating in the future ethnic comparative research Game Alone Synthesis.
