daybrakes by juliette liautaud

Daybrakes are seven short compositions produced during march and may 2020

Composed from recorded materials of daily piano improvisations, field recordings of birds and city surroundings, layered montages of discreet voices, synth and electric guitar.
Condensed though short songs, this record aims to translate the slow mood of this period, recalling beloved places from the distance

Daybrakes is a neologism between the break of days and a brake, the device to slow or stop vehicles. This is also a fern found in Corsica forests where the isolation finally ended.

"Veille" is the soundtrack of the videowork "Dawn Chorus".
Daybrakes was self-released and self-published in july 2020 as a CD edition enveloped in a A3 rectoverso poster and three printed analog photographs.
