… that being said, this new CD by St-Onge sounds nothing like the one by Xanthocephalus. On Ailleurs, the Montréal-based bassist aligns tracks of computer-assisted electric bass. Each note triggers a digital sound action. Less noise-based, more electroacoustic-like than his previous solo albums. Ailleurs is dry, cerebral, and some of St-Onge’s choices in digital sound palette are questionable.
