Ingerville by Inselberg

Performed and recorded by :
Alexandre Prouvèze (guitar)
Matthieu Canaguier (guitar)

Summer 2019

These four improvised two-guitar pieces can be heard as the imaginary soundtrack to an unfinished story by Georges Bataille, Charlotte d'Ingerville, with whom they share the idea of destitution as mystical potentiality, meditative openness, emaciated psychedelia.

Revolving around a sole tuning – a suspended C, neither minor nor major : between two ages, or maybe timeless – this duet seeks a dialogue without words, over chaos and its hollow presence in every silence.

Ces quatre pièces improvisées à deux guitares peuvent s'entendre comme la bande-son imaginaire d'un récit inachevé de Georges Bataille, Charlotte d'Ingerville, avec lequel elles partagent l’idée de dénuement comme potentialité mystique, ouverture méditative, psychédélisme décharné.

Tournant autour d'un même accordage – en do suspendu, ni mineur, ni majeur : entre deux âges, ou plutôt intemporel – ce duo vise un dialogue sans mot, sur le chaos et sa présence en creux dans tout silence.

Founded by Matthieu Canaguier (Aluk Todolo / Vediog SVAOR/ Gunslingers) in 2015, Inselberg is an experimental music project: harmonic experiments on sound masses, pure timbre, stretching of durations, psychoacoustics, magical and divinatory practices vectorized thru music. Inselberg performs solo, in duo, in accompaniment of theatrical and film projects.
