Fragile Section by Richard Bégin

Recorded in Canada by Richard Bégin (2021 - 2022), "Fragile Section" is on the thin line of balance between ambient music, hauntology and musique concrète, a land where everything virtually can happen. The sound constantly sways between ambient drones, noises of springs, subtle metallic rustles, guitars now distorted, now lopsided, broken turntable needles spinning endlessly, electronic mists of distant memories, samples of music lost in time. Sometimes dreamy, sometimes almost post-industrial, mostly hard to decipher, "Fragile Section" will take you to the dimension where sound crumbles to become something indefinite, yet full of meaning.
