À l’inattendu les dieux livrent passage
Mecha Fixes Clocks / Michel F Côté
Michel F Côté uses a variety of sonic strategies to construct an exuberantly original nine-part sound world onà l’inattendu les dieux livrent passage . — The WholeNote, Canada
Perfectly restrained, non-idiomatic music, really best heard on a moonlit night… — The Cookshop, USA
Open passages stay open.
Let’s take advantage of this passage to thank the musicians, especially those who tune to the unexpected.
Thanks to them for their ability to abandon themselves to time and to obscure instructions.
Only we don’t repair all engines nor all models
Actually, it’s not the job of composers nor musicians to save centuries.
In concert,
This music on this disc is rather slow and not very fashionable, though it has been retrofitted.

Michel F Côté remet le couvert avec son MECHA FIXES CLOCKS, deux ans après “Orbiting with screwdrivers”. Dans le mesure où le propos sonore est assez proche de son prédécesseur, l’auditeur peut supposer que “À l’inattendu les dieux livrent passage” a été réalisé avec la même mise en œuvre
Recensione
Musica che parla per immagini, giustamente definita altrove “cinematica” per il suo srotolarsi come un lento tappeto di immagini formalizzate in sequenze di suoni. La bulimia di immagini prodotta nelle nostre menti non necessita di ulteriori materiali di stimolo, le scorte sono in avanzo, basta qualche semplice ripescaggio. Nuova psichedelica
