UNIVERSAL MUSIC GROUP (Loin Des) Rivages [VINYL]

Bon Voyage Organisation is Adrien Durand a renowned Parisian bass keyboard player, composer, producer and mixing engineer. Known for his knowledge of ensemble recording and arrangement techniques, BVO is his attempt at creating a musical dialogue around his compositions with a distinguished cast of musicians from different backgrounds in a recording environment recalling the musical ensembles of the 70's such as that of Carla Bley, Soft Machine or Irakere. '(Loin des) Rivages' was recorded over five days in June 2020 at Studio Atlas, the studio of Air's Jean- Benoit Dunckel and mixed summer 2021 by Durand in his Parisian studio, Bureau 12. The close collaboration between Adrien Durand and the members of the ensemble allowed them to deliver the incredible energy of "Le Sentier des Orpailleurs", the depth of melancholy of "Apacheta", and the originality of "Et s'éveillent". Inspired by the great explorers of the soul: Sun Ra, Moondog and Coltrane - a cover of his "Naïma" actually opens the album - Adrien Durand mixes humanity's first instruments (percussion and the wind) with its latest ones (mixing desks and synthesizers). It is an inward journey reaching into a jungle of the soul so marvellously represented in Clément Vuillet's wonderful artwork.
