A free-floating form full of possibilities, dream-like states and chance. The tormented tenderness of Chopin comes to a head-on collision with clicking and hissing noises, deep unwordly basses and hobbling rhythmical structures. It may sound like an artificial approach, but ends up being absolutely organic and full of allusions to nature: Winds of white noise, crackling open fires, the rustling of leaves and waves of echo are all part of this wonderous and wonderful world. Atonal piano lines melt into sweet harmonies, then dissolve and steer towards a strange but overwhelming finale; structures seem to feel their way through a maze. There’s a linearity in the pieces, without being strictly repetitive and they can do with the most minimal of instrumentation.

“Branches get rid of their root” will disappoint all those who like their music easily cut out along a polar emotional divide: Sad, happy, sombre, joyful, aggressive, relaxed. They’re all present, albeit in a transmuted state. Rather, it’s the kind of album that you’ll love now and understand later. Simply put: This is the way future music could go.

Mouvement Noveau


...this album is not made for those who enjoy light, noncommittal background listening - get ready to get serious, settle in your armchair and analyze the atoms of Remot sounds. ...a synthesis of hatched up, researched electronic sounds, glitch motives, piano improvisations and emotions... It turned my Sunday calmness in a weird direction.
