Materia by MICROPANiK
Materia focuses on matter. Seven recording sessions were conducted with various elements not primarily related to music: an eggshell, a metal spring, some water, plastic, glass, rock, and bronze. The result is part of the entire album, and each track has its own matter. In a world where our relationships are mainly virtual, MICROPANiK offers here a more concrete experience, which is the result of our senses in a natural state, without any intermediaries. To touch, see, smell, feel and just contemplate the utopia of living an instant without our fuckin’ screens. Matter is nature, nature is animal and animal is human. The respect of the matter, the preservation of mankind.

Materia est thématique et traite de la matière. Sept sessions d’enregistrement ont été réalisées à partir d’éléments dont la vocation première n’est pas de créer de la musique : coquille d’œuf, ressort de métal, eau, plastique, verre, pierre et bronze. Le résultat s’insère dans l’album et chacune des pièces de Materia incorpore sa propre matière.
À une époque où nos relations sont du domaine virtuel, MICROPANiK propose ici une expérience de ce qui est tangible, le résultat de nos sens à l’état brut sans intermédiaire. Toucher, voir, sentir, entendre et l’utopie de vivre un moment nos fuckin’ écrans fermés. La matière est nature, la nature est animal et l’animal est homme. Le respect de la matière, le maintien de l’homme.
