BELL ORCHESTRE: il collettivo strumentale pubblica un nuovo brano
BELL ORCHESTRE IL FAVOLOSO COLLETTIVO STRUMENTALE CANADESE FIRMA CON ERASED TAPES RECORDS E PUBBLICA OGGI ‘IX: NATURE THAT’S IT THAT’S ALL’
Il collettivo avant-garde Bell Orchestre annuncia oggi la sua firma con Erased Tapes Records e pubblica il primo short film, a dieci anni di distanza dall’ultima release. Con base a Montreal, Bell Orchestre è composto da Sarah Beufeld e Richard Reed Parry (Arcade Fire) a cui si aggiungono altri quattro eccellenti musicisti. Il collettivo è noto per la sua musica strumentale ed evocativa, creativa ed impossibile da catalogare. I primi due album, ‘Recording a Tape the Colour of the Light’ (2005) e ‘As Seen Through Windows’ (2009) sono stati caldamente accolti dai media musicali, esaltando le doti cinematografiche ed orchestrali di Bell Orchestre. Mentre il collettivo è al lavoro sul nuovo materiale, è orgoglioso di firmare con Erased Tapes e di pubblicare oggi ‘IX: Nature That’s It That’s All’, lo short-film diretto da Kaven Nabatian, membro della band, che ha realizzato il filmato elaborando in 16mm e scansionando filmati dagli archivi britannici di Pathe.
Robert Raths, fondatore di Erased Tapes e grande fan di Bell Orchestre, è orgoglioso della nuova firma: “I remember it so vividly. There was something that made me focus in on what Richy and Sarah (and Owen for that matter) were doing, whenever I paid attention to the Arcade Fire. I remember thinking ‘damn, who are these cats on multiple instruments, drumming on motorcycle helmets and scraping violins as if there’s no tomorrow?’ There was this raw, unfiltered energy about them that had an entire force of its own. Turns out this thing I was hearing in my head already had a name: Bell Orchestre. The world just wasn’t aware nor ready for it, yet.” — Robert Raths
“We are deeply pleased to have found such a good home for our music — Erased Tapes is a place where so much that’s impossible to categorize, and gorgeously unique music lives and thrives. And we’re thrilled to find ourselves in such a welcoming family of like-minded musical souls.” — Richard Reed Parry
