about

Geins't Naït and Laurent Petitgand have been music activists for more than 30 years, two very singular musicians, coming from two different schools and whose collaboration was far from obvious: the industrial and experimental scene for Thierry Mérigout (the last active member of the group Geins't Naït) and for Laurent Petitgand, well known for his movie soundtracks, especially for his collaboration with Wim Wenders. These two artists have different visions at first sight, but share common roots and a mutual respect.

 For the album "OLA", the GN+LP duo is joined by Scanner alias Robin Rimbaud, for this explosive collaboration. The album claims an industrial pedigree, but is hard to pigeonhole, shifting between drums and drone, enhanced by field recordings and occasionally distorted words.

From the first track, "MT26", we quickly understand the potential of this trio formula. After three rather calm introductory minutes, scattered with modified voices and field recording, the track progressively evolves with a rhythmic pulse. The loops merge and repeat, sometimes disintegrating and filling up with industrial sounds and more or less heavy metals.

This structure can be found on several tracks such as "OLA" or "MOUCHE", two hypnotic tracks of more than seven minutes that could remind us of Autechre or Muslimgauze. We also discover a tribute to Gilles Deleuze on the track "GILLES" in which GN+LP+Scanner rework the conference of this philosopher "What is the act of creation?

"OLA" is a work to be experienced. Intense and immersive, GN + LP + Scanner's work gives off an atmosphere: a timeless sound space, the perception of a cold, mechanical but strangely reassuring world. A universe that some might compare to a combination of David Cronenberg's "The Fly" and Wang Bing's "West of the tracks". If this were physical travel, it would come with a warning.
