Born in 1943, Lance Austin Olsen is a Canadian artist and composer. He started painting in his youth and has since continued developing his work as an artist. In 1997, Olsen met sound and visual artist Jamie Drouin and became interested in experimental music. In Olsen’s creative process, composition and painting are closely related and inspired by each other. French musician Bruno Duplant is an energetic and acclaimed creator on the contemporary experimental music scene.
This CD’s single 33-minute track, “Coïncidence,” is a duo performance by Lance Austin Olsen (guitar, field recordings, wax cylinder recordings, MIDI organ, amplified objects) and Bruno Duplant (piano and sounds). Several types of indistinct and rather soft sounds, and hard piano sounds that resonate slowly one by one, create contrast as they continue throughout the piece along with a disturbing mood.
本CDには、Lance Austin Olsen (guitar, field recordings, wax cylinder reccrdings, MIDI organ, amplified objects) と Bruno Duplan (piano & sounds) による33分に及ぶデュオ演奏「Coïncidence」1曲を収録。不鮮明で弱音気味の数種のサウンドと一音一音ゆっくりと硬質に強く響くピアノ音が、対照を成しながら終始不穏なムードと共に続く。
