Laurent Pernice delivers an album of light and shades. “Il y a les ombres” is a sonorous trip to the limits of perception, a place where voices murmur fragmented truths and where instruments, not used in a traditional way, dig the layers of unexplored territories. This new work (of the old member of Nox and current member of Palo Alto) summons the voices of Alan Dalmasio (Palo Alto) Judith Juillerat, Black Sifichi, Heloise Brezillon and Laura Garrato (Magma). This is not only a play of vocal contrasts, but behind them double bass, harp, zither, French horn, , field recordings, lap steel and electronics tend to decorticate attended sound structures in order to create new perspectives of sound. Other collaborators of Laurent in this work are Jacques Barbieri (Palo Alto) Nicolas Dick (Kill the Thrill) and Cristophe Petchanatz (Klimperei).
