Toy bizarre & Pierre Redon — Saisons

Saisons mixers together nature bound field recordings, improv guitar elements, electronics and clever sound editing  to conjuring up  strange, alien and organic sonic worlds, which for the most part remain quirky, atmospheric, none threatening but often psychedelic.

It feels like you’ve stepped into the pages of a strange fairytale land from childhood and have settled yourself down in a magical woodland or enchanted glade, but with acid tinged edger’s bending your mind more than a bit. At its most effective  you could shut your eyes and easily imagine a strange world of weird colour moss and bizarre vegetation unfolding out of your speakers and spreading slowly around the room.

With each track Toy Bizarre & Pierre Redon reel out often long strips of  forest, bog and other natural environmental recordings to which they mix in cleverly ‘n’ strange guitar sound noises, drone textures and the odd harmonic fold and ebb. But what’s so clever and enchanting about the whole thing is the way it’s all mixed and joined together, so it all sounds like one strange landscape, instead of someone making guitar noises over field recordings.

A very vivid and strange yet appealing collection of sound scapes that wonderful blurs the line between field recordings, improv and atmospheric/ psychedelic dwells. If you go down to Saisons woods your sure of a rewarding and strange sonic surprise.
