SPECIAL VERSIONS – LIVE AT ACCA, BRIGHTON: 6th DECEMBER BANDCAMP FRIDAY, FUNDRAISING #1 FOR @thepcrf PALESTINE CHILDREN’S RELIEF FUND
A lot of love went into this music and this release, so I sincerely hope you will like these new versions of the songs from my last album Le jour et la nuit du réel @thrilljockey as much as I do, and that you will join me tomorrow on this first fundraising for @thepcrf‘s Urgent Gaza Relief fund 🙏🙏🙏
This is a Bandcamp exclusive release in both audio and video (the entire show was filmed), with 100% of proceeds going to humanitarian causes in perpetuity (FULL TRACKLISTING AND CREDITS BELOW). LINK WILL BE ACTIVE WHEN BANDCAMP FRIDAY STARTS: midnight to midnight Pacific Time, 9 am Friday to 9 am Saturday mainland Europe.

When I developed those versions, I decided I would record them, just wasn’t sure where and when.
On that night at @attenboroughctr I actually didn’t know the show was being recorded, and the more I played, the more moved I felt by how the music sounded on the PA and in the room, even from the stage. If you perform live regularly, you will know what a special feeling that is, because not every concert is like that: you may be just concentrating on the “mechanics” of getting it right, you could be having issues related to yourself (your state of mind, stress, tiredness, health…), your instruments or a venue technical issue… but there are times when the miracle of feeling a deep emotion through the music while playing it happens, and on that night, on which I was exceptionally relaxed, I definitely felt it.
“I really wish this had been recorded”, I told the audience at the end of “Les parenthèses enchantées – Mvt IV – Swimming version”, so when sound engineer @kanearis told me, after the show, “It *was* recorded, with several mikes too”, I literally gave him a hug! So what you will hear is the sound from my mixing desk (where I mix the Grandmother and 2 delays), mixed with the sound from Kane’s desk and 2 ambiant mikes capturing the sound of the PA in the venue from 2 different locations.
I invite you to read @thepcrf home and FAQ pages to see how they are working on the ground to provide medical aid in many different ways to the country’s children.
🙏🙏🙏 @attenboroughctr @la_ducceschi @gomez_servin_andres for the artwork; extra special 🙏🙏🙏 @kanearis
