Portraits by Technology And Bones

With interactions between a mixed track of endangered (or disappearing sounds from the industrial society) and Bass-Trombone improvisation this project asks questions about the evolution of humanity and its perception of the world .
Does human being will disappear with this fading technology and knowledge?

Alix Tucou: "With "Portraits" I change my point of view and present myself as a painter capable of painting musical portraits.

This modus operandi places the figure of the musician in close relationship with the figure of a visual artist who does not use colors and canvases but a bass trombone and soundscapes.

I adopt the same compositional language as my first album "Technology and Bones" thus continuing my research started in 2015, shortly before my move to New York.

In "Portraits" the focus is on a work of sound collages that intend to tell the personality of an individual or the essence of an object."
