about

EN: Past the dense pressurized medium of Flake Out (2008) the propagating soundscape of Tangtype finds new texture in continuous motion and retrieves substance from fickle displacement. Like all meaningful travel, the destination is at best an anecdote, while the journey remains the experience. Trajet (2014) fuses together years of sound travel experiences from trips, exchanges and places in an odyssey that lasts less than an hour but leaves you with a memory of attendancy. Jean-François Brohée and Julie Cambier of Tangtype made this happen by letting sound data travel, morph, evolve and slowly resolve on their fertile Vienna – Brussels up- downlink. The result will scatter and propagate all around you.

FR: Sur leur premier opus, “Flake Out”, les chansons téléscopaient superbement une musique concrète ultra-moderne. Un mélange rare et déjà très maîtrisé. Tangtype est maintenant de retour avec un deuxième album réalisé à distance, de Bruxelles (où reste Jean-François Brohée) à Vienne (où vit Julie Cambier). Le duo belge y affine son propos avec un songwriting plus direct et plus accessible. “Trajet” offre des pièces ciselées par les traitements électroniques, véritable marque de fabrique de ce groupe clairement original. Le chant de Julie Cambier y est plus grave et plus affirmé. L’instrumentation est axée sur guitares et batteries, apanages du rock, mais pour les emmener toujours ailleurs. Tangtype ose aussi revisiter “In My Time of Dying”, un vieux gospel chanté par Bob Dylan sur son premier album. Et il n’est pas interdit de reconnaître ça et là quelques percées africaines, l’une des influences importantes de Jean-François Brohée, élément fort rare dans une musique aussi teintée d’électroacoustique. Si la pop doit évoluer dans le futur en se servant des acquis des musiques électroniques et expérimentales, alors voilà peut-être une pop pour le XXIe Siècle. (Sylvain Chauveau)
