about

Sound theme : Insects
Style : Hardcore punk / noisecore
Concrete instruments : various crickets, cicadas, grasshoppers and locusts
Real/regular instruments : guitar (one take)
Other sounds : gecko, brake squeal, mosquito, helicopter, anagramed Lemmy
Years : May 2009 - Dec 2011

The bassline of this track was entirely made with the sound of a cricket recorded in square in Tokyo. It matches the guitar part and took three weeks to caculate and edit.

The central break features a field of grasshopper invasion in a hotel In Bhamo, Kachin State, North of Myanmar. They were everywhere : under my pillow, under my feet, in the sink, all around the floors and creeping under the door and through torn window grills... and that in the dark (no electricity at night).

A 100% insect sound remix of the last section was included as one of my two contributions to Larry Boothroyd (VICTIMS FAMILY)'s project "Specimen Box - Four Walls". (kaleidoscopic double LP with an impressive list of contributors) : specimenbox.bandcamp.com/album/four-walls
"100% insect" just means that I removed one frog rythmic sample and the filtered kick drum. All the rest are insects.
