about

In 1998, Tony Hymas wrote Eight Day Journal for Sam Rivers. Far from any third stream preoccupation, the essential thing is to create living matter. This diary of eight imaginary days is illustrated by Moebius.

"For anyone feeling poisoned by the standardized products of today's "revivalism", here is the ideal antidote: eight days in the company of Sam Rivers and Tony Hymas. Surprise, excitement, shivering emotion and the dialogue of crackling reeds await you at every turn of the beach, under a sky where the birds are in full conference."
Michel Contat in Télérama, May 2017

En 1998, Tony Hymas écrit, pour Sam Rivers, Eight Day Journal. Loin de toute préoccupation de type troisième courant, l’essentiel est de façonner une matière vivante. Ce journal de huit journées imaginaires est illustré par le dessinateur Moebius.

« Pour qui se sentirait empoisonné par les produits standardisés du "revivalisme" actuel, voici l'antidote idéal : huit jours en compagnie de Sam Rivers et Tony Hymas. La surprise, l'émoi, l'émotion frissonnante, le dialogue d'anches crépitantes vous attendent à chaque détour de plage, sous un ciel où les oiseaux sont en grande conférence. »
Michel Contat in Télérama, mai 2017

about

nato records Paris, France

Founded in 1980, nato records quickly constituted a puzzle with all sorts of openings without any other restriction than that of producing meaning, that of a music living with the world. More than a puzzle, an island perhaps, made up of passionate encounters, which made Francis Marmande write in Le Monde "The most original production of this time" (Sept. 10, 1992). ... more
