Bruit Direct Disques / France / 2025
The fourth album for Bruit Direct Disques from the French artist Claire Gapenne (Terrine). Jazz Band Theory is 31 minutes and 10 seconds of inattention in a river of drops. A balancing act designed to destabilize prevalent control systems, functioning as a proto-resistance assembly of (meta) language.
Moving beyond the functions of standard techno, Terrine exposes the play and mischief in her machinery. Whether you are tech-adventurous or tech-skeptic, this is an essential infiltration of geography and mood. Organic, electronic, and fiercely independent.
