THE SOUND Post.

  Links Insta Linktree Bandcamp Interview #21 1.What pedal or instrument you take for a mission to Mars?   Will I be able to come back? Then a sampler or a recorder would be enough. In order to catch everything I can hear inside the spacecraft.  2.What album you take for a neverending moon travel? Daydream nation by Sonic Youth. I really think I would need them. 3.What are your conditions, your habits or your inspiration when composing a new track? Don't really know. Is often late evening when finally I've got time for me. I generally start by improvising. It always start with some intentions but it generally end up with something different.  I would like to say that everything that come out is intentional but is actually far from that. I'm not a composer in that sense. It happened to do a whole track just by looking to a video with no sound. Image and sound are really correlated to me. I like to consider the process of composing as a synesthetic experience. 4.D...

  Links Insta Bandcamp Interview #20 1.What pedal or instrument you take for a mission to Mars?   I’m primarily a guitar player so I would make sure I had my 70s Telecaster with me. However, since the question also asks about pedals I’m assuming you also get to bring a guitar to run through them. Amplification is probably also available or could be built into the mothership?  In that case I’m going to have to go with the Meris LVX even though it hasn’t been released yet and I’ve yet to play through it (I have preordered it though!) It just seems like such a deep comprehensive pedal, it even has drives on it and lots of modulation besides the delays. I cannot wait. I hope it arrives in time for take off.  2.What album you take for a neverending moon travel?   Dies Irae by Devil Doll. Or anything by the Italian genius Mr Doctor. I highly recommend seeking out his music if you haven’t heard it. Completely underrated and a perfect lunar experience.  3...

  Links    Insta Bandcamp Spotify Interview # 17 1.What pedal or instrument you take for a mission to Mars? We would typically choose a vintage tape delay unit such as the Maestro Echoplex which matches our project's aesthetic, but for an "out of space" experience, we would go for a Hologram Electronics Microcosm.   2.What album you take for a neverending moon travel? Have several in mind, but we would probably take Satoshi Ashikawa -“Still Way”. 3.What are your conditions, your habits or your inspiration when composing a new track? Silence is a crucial element, including the wide range of sounds in nature itself. We ask ourselves the following question: "How can we embellish the silence which it's already beautiful by itself?". We also find inspiration in certain books and movies. 4.Do you have any information to give us concerning a new album or a new track? We are developing a new album, it’s still in process, we conceive it as the sequel of “La Clairière...

  Links Insta Website Bandcamp Spotify Interview #13 1.What pedal or instrument you take for a mission to Mars? It's not just one pedal but a combination. It's the Chase Bliss Audio Mood and my JN-1 tape machine modified by my good friend Nathaniel Gibson. Those two are a perfect pairing with the Hologram Microcosm. That combination is the essence of the Lumastora sound.  2.What album you take for a neverending moon travel? It would have to be the Jimmy Eat World album "Static Prevails".  That album has been such a huge part of my life and I can't imagine not having that album right by my side.  3.What are your conditions, your habits or your inspiration when composing a new track? I spend most mornings in the studio before I have to go to work. That's mainly when I will do my mixing of tracks and songs. The main day for creativity and recording is Sundays.  That's when I have the most time to sit down and get lost for a few hours in the studio. I usually ...

 Links Insta Linktree Bandcamp Spotify Interview #12 1.What pedal or instrument you take for a mission to Mars? I would probably take my drums with me. A guitar would certainly be more comfortable.  But I'm mainly a drummer. That is what I would miss most. 2.What album you take for a neverending moon travel? Just one? This is difficult. I would like to put together a compilation. Or take your primary sound compilations with you. There is so much good music on it. But ok, if it really can only be one album: I would take Jeniferever's "Choose a Bright Morning" with me. That was my first post rock album. That's how I came into contact with this genre. I love the atmosphere of the record. 3.What are your conditions, your habits or your inspiration when composing a new track? It's totally different. Sometimes I jam on the guitar. Then a riff arises, around which I write a song. Sometimes I have a cool groove that I build on. Sometimes I'm inspired by the music ...

  Links Insta Linktree Bandcamp Spotify Interview #11 1.What pedal or instrument you take for a mission to Mars? This question is actually very relevant to me right now, because I've just moved to Dubai for 6 months, and sometimes it feels like Mars, especially with the desert landscape! I could only take one of my five guitars with me, so I actually had to make this choice!  Between guitars and basses, I chose a guitar because I'm still learning guitar and I thought it would keep me more entertained as I continue to learn and take lessons. Between my guitars, I chose my Gibson SG because I can change the tuning on it lol. I love my new Jericho, but it has an evertune bridge so I can't really change tuning between standard, drop D, and drop C, and sometimes I want to switch between the tunings for my guitar lessons, covers I'm working on, or my own songs. Spoiler alert tho- I couldn't live without my basses apparently and I bought one here for $100 like 2 weeks afte...

  Links Insta Linktree Bandcamp Spotify Interview #10 1.What pedal or instrument you take for a mission to Mars?   I think my Bass-Guitar and the Orange-Amp.  2.What album you take for a neverending moon travel? This Will Destroy You – S/T – it´s an all-time masterpiece! 3.What are your conditions, your habits or your inspiration when composing a new track? Oh, it´s not easy but I would like to say autumn, winter or spring, a good coffee, chocolate and above all an intense feeling. I need a lot of emotions to create a new song – without these deep feelings I`m not able to write any song. 4.Do you have any information to give us concerning a new album or a new track? No currently I can´t say anything…   5.Which artist would you like to work with? (musician, illustrator, movie director or composer) Christoffer Franzen. It´s such a genius and I love his wonderful work with “Lights & Motion”. I have no words for this exceptional talent for melodies, arrangements and ...

  Links Insta Bandcamp Spotify Interview #9 1.What pedal or instrument you take for a mission to Mars? Tom: I view myself primarily as a producer, rather than a recording artist. So for me it would probably be my Kontakt library - I've got 10+ years of instruments, samples, etc. all fine tuned and organised exactly how I need 'em. I'd be lost without that. Trevor: If it’s a pedal, I’d choose the Hologram Microcosm.  That thing takes you right to space with all of the granular delays, reverb, and looping capabilities. Total space machine. 2.What album you take for a neverending moon travel? Tom: Probably Boards of Canada - Music Has The Right To Children - that feels like a suitable soundtrack to travel to the moon. Trevor: Radiohead - Kid A - One of my favorite albums of all time. It feels like it paints the picture of a cold, baron landscape, so it seems fitting. 3.What are your conditions, your habits or your inspiration when composing a new track? Tom: I need to be in th...

Strymon Big Sky, Boss ME-70, Strymon El capistan, and MOOD pedal  2.What album you take for a neverending moon travel? Hard to choose, since I have variety of albums that I can take for a never-ending moon travel but for sure these two albums will be perfect.  Hammock - Oblivion Hymns  Stars Of the Lid - And their Refinement of the Decline 3.What are your conditions, your habits or your inspiration when composing a new track? My habits & inspiration is usually get ideas through life experience, existence, reading Philosophy, photos, or anything that caught my attention.  All of my music are freeform, I never restrict myself or even stress to make this album in a particular concept.  I just let it be and whenever it comes out, it just comes out. Which all of the album deals with existence, Life, Philosophy, field recordings, Architecture and ma...
