Marie-Pierre Rixain and David Fenech form an unexpected and captivating duo, pushing the boundaries of alternative music. Together, they embark on an unclassifiable sonic journey, blending industrial downtempo, steady kicks, cold percussion, field recordings, and electric guitar feedback. Their music, often dark, carries flashes of warmth inspired by British dub-like an imaginary collaboration between The Bug and This Heat. At times, it echoes the world of La Perversita by Hector Zazou & Co. At 57, Marie-Pierre Rixain is stepping into the spotlight with a mesmerizing debut album. Long a discreet presence, she dedicated herself to organizing concerts and photo exhibitions centered on countercultures. Now, she reveals herself through a voice that is both raw and intimate, carried by bold sonic textures. She is also involved in the composition of the tracks, using field recordings and sampling. Parisian musician and improviser David Fenech brings his unique touch to this project. Known for his work at the crossroads of rock, jazz and improvised music, he has collaborated with iconic figures such as Felix Kubin, Tom Cora, Pierre Bastien, Nurse With Wound, Rhys Chatham, and more recently, Cosey Fanni Tutti, Jah Wobble, and Jean-Hervé Peron. His career has led him to prestigious labels such as Cold Spring, Blackest Ever Black, and Akuphone. After several trio albums with Jac Berrocal and Vincent Epplay, he now surprises us with a captivating creation. Their debut album, Insane Ghosts, due out in spring 2025 on the Parisian label Hublotone, was recorded in 2024 in the intimate privacy of the bedroom. Mixed by David Fenech, it also benefits from the participation of Alexandre Berly (La Mverte) on the track 'Toi en Moi', adding a sub and experimental touch. The mastering was handled by the legendary Noel Summerville, whose sonic signature graces iconic albums by The Clash, My Bloody Valentine, Kraftwerk, Aphex Twin, and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. Founded in 2024 by Hugo Sampeur and Adrien Lepape, Hublotone is the result of a bold vision from these two independent distributors, who also created the Kuronekool festival. This release reflects their commitment to promoting innovative artists. The album cover features a striking work by French photographer and filmmaker Antoine d'Agata (Magnum Photos). His poetic and abstract image adds another layer to Insane Ghosts, a project already shaping up to be a must-have for fans of introspective, dark and cold music. Like if Lost in Highway from David Lynch had a new soundtrack.
