about

Rodorayda
Immersed in a milky form of solitude, I was obsessed with flowers.
I approached them and probed the best path for my sensory being and musical acuity. I felt irresistible pulsations when I saw sheets of lustrous flowers, I tasted the flavor of their lips, the voltage of their pistils, the condensed tremors of their stems, the strange light of their faces when the night came.
I overheard conversations between their corollas that were singularly similar to ours, and the experience of these frequencies became a strange, pulsating, sonorous creature.
Rodorayda transcribes that feeling, thru the liberated force of my synths. They play their partitions at the same time matte and satiny, strident and low. Their frequencies transpose the appearances of reality. They invite me to get back in touch with the very close presence of the supernatural to dry my sweat in the fire of their electronics. Soon a simple pressure of the fingers on Persephone reveals fleshy drones and I open the song of the modulars where virtual chirps are exasperated.
Possessed by the intoxication of oscillos and the heresy of the perfumes of the scrubland, these bushy areas have opened an untamed dance.
A supplement of soul stirs up my hearing. Can the musical space give body to stigmas?

released March 3, 2023

After attending the class of electroacoustic composition of Christine Groult at the Conservatory of Pantin (DEM) French composer Sigolène Valax realizes electroacoustic and radio pieces (ARTE Radio), sound creations for live performance (Un qui veut Traverser, 2022). Since 2016 she creates - with the trio Vierge Noire - the music for the choreographer Anna Gaïotti, (Les antécédentes, 2020, A kiss without lips, 2021-22).
In her compositions she makes Persephone and modular synthesizers converse to create a rough and ramified music. In her improvisations, she looks for frictions, tensions and energies.
She practices a non-idiomatic music that relies on organic drones.
She is interested in wild lutheries and explores experimental improvised music with Vierge Noire, Elek Ember, Seuil Optique, Sauges, Mesce Basse, Lucus Furrina.

Skeleton Keys

Each of these tracks are skeleton keys that open a portal into another dimension. As such, they are all wonderful in their own right. This release reaches back in time to an age of analog semi-generative ambient exploration. Very much worth a listen. 69dragynz
