(2015) Benoit Pioulard - Sonnet [FLAC]

       Benoît Pioulard – Sonnet (2015)    





Review:

American singer and multi-instrumentalist Thomas Meluch, better known as Benoît Pioulard, creates creates folk-indebted electronic soundscapes, incorporating field recordings and various elements of rock and pop music. Pioulard signed to Chicago’s Kranky imprint in 2006, and since then he has released four albums for the label, which is also home to Grouper and Tim Hecker. Kranky have today unveiled a fifth album from Pioulard, due to be released in March. A press release compares the LP to ’70s Krautrock, describing it as “lush and verdant”. “A few pieces had lyrics and vocal parts that I ultimately removed; at a certain point the album became an exercise in restraint, so I strove to leave only what I felt absolutely essential,” Pioulard said, adding, “Unlike most of my previous recordings, there are no digital / software after-effects on the album; all sounds are from analog tape and / or my few guitar pedals.” — factmag
