INK - Climax EP - Cd
///////FR///////
INK se joue des codes et des barrières dans ce nouvel EP : Climax. Une sortie attendue pour le mardi 2 novembre 2021. Produit par Jazzin’Translation (INK, Wrap it Up, Couronne d’Or Jazz Festival) et édité par 3rd Lab (Ena Eno, Dooz Kawa, Na+ + Cl-…), Climax est la préface de 3 titres d’un nouvel album du quartet alsacien prévu en 2022.
Puisant dans le jazz et l’improvisation, le quartet survolté emmené par le batteur et compositeur Victor Gachet caresse les frontières de l’électronique dans un incessant dialogue avec la beauté du silence. Jazz et musiques électroniques, Hard-bop et Deep berlinoise, Massive Attack et John Coltrane, Stanley Kubrick et Jorge Luis Borges, autant d’influences qui parsèment la création Climax et l’emmènent vers un spectacle intense et hallucinatoire.

Is there a mechanism to fantasies ? How do we put words on concepts, like the feeling of love, that go beyond intellect and rational explanations ? We bet that art (and especially music) can answer those questions by transcending them. Climax is the result of hours of work around the loneliness related to love and the mechanisms in place in desirs, fantasies and “love delirium”. Previously known as Les Chapeaux Noirs, all four musicians share a strong bond built throughout the years and they are brought back together around this new INK project and for a new creation : Climax.
