DISPHASE
Second Vision of Death duration : 9’00
Elektramusic Electroacoustic Music Volume 02 CD – track 07
Disphase is a composition of words.
The lyrics were written in Marrakesh. Monsters of imagination in Bosch’s world, the chaos of the suk, the smell of a no-time zone, drawn in a terrible vision in my book. Two years later I composed this delicate music. From terrible to kind, through a gentle female voice, to emphasize hardness and softness in the same nature. Its lyrics are considered as sounds. The meaning transcends meaning : sound is meaning, space is meaning. A sound- shadow accompanies all the words and lyrics, sound and noises have the same importance
