VAGUE IMAGINAIRES - Versatile records

Friday 29 September 2023, 5PM

Like some film directors, Vague Imaginaires ("Imaginary Wave") will sometimes collaborate with non-professionals: homeless, psychiatric patients, social workers, refugees... the left-behinds. The melancholy within his music is "that of those who couldn't leave for the stars or the islands, the great tragedy of the forgotten ones."

His music is characterized by entanglement: double melodies interweaving, and synths fusing with non-musical sounds: "Crickets in a palm grove, rain on a barn, freshly cut pieces of wood clicking, spring water running on froth, birds in the meadow, coal clattering on a fire, thunder on the lake, soft waves on the beach. These enchanting sounds that make places what they are."

Anchored in the real world to better escape it, his music comforts and reconciles us with it, transforming reality into "a new, voluptuous world, a graviton-less exoplanet, like flying in a dream."
