Micaela Trombini – Two New Explorations Between Memory, Presence and Inner Landscapes

Elektramusic is pleased to present two new releases by Italian composer and sound artist Micaela Trombini: The Ghost in the Projector Beam and The Dream Breathes With Me. Moving between electroacoustic composition, ambient textures and fragile cinematic atmospheres, these two albums explore different but deeply connected emotional territories — memory, perception, absence, intimacy and the physicality of sound itself. The Ghost in the Projector Beam On The Ghost in the Projector Beam, Micaela Trombini constructs a subtle and immersive sonic space where blurred memories, decaying images and suspended emotions seem to emerge from the background like fragments of forgotten films. The album unfolds slowly through layered drones, delicate harmonic movements and spectral textures, creating a feeling...

Let's talk with Paul Clouvel : about music streaming

Let’s talk with Paul Clouvel (part 1 : about streaming revenues)

We discuss different subjects such as streaming, gender equality in music, the life of a label today and other subjects with Paul Clouvel, composer, performer and especially the one who runs Elektramusic. Let's start with a subject that annoys many: revenue from music streaming. Elektramusic is a very active label online. Do you have a particular link to the internet? Yes from the start. For me the internet was emancipation. At the time, I was close to a major contemporary music institution in a small town in France. This kind of institution which has total contempt for the young composers that we were at the time. We were scheduled for their festival on Thursday...

Please meet… Tiri Carreras and his album “Aquasmatique”!

When and how did you discover contemporary music? Contemporary music came to me by chance through encounters. Even if I went through the conservatory, I did not follow a very advanced academic training. I mostly learned by playing in groups, first pop/rock, then jazz and finally free-jazz. So I had no initial training in contemporary music.It is at the beginning of...

Rediscover… Gilles Fresnais and his single “Sonner-résonner”

Paris-born composer Gilles Fresnais studied acoustic and sound engineering. He attended the audio mixing of the Alain Robbe-Grillet film Trans-EuropExpress, performed by Michel Fano, which showed him the innate beauty of natural and ”concrete” sounds. Discover his new single here ! Why did you choose to release an isolated piece named "Sonner-résonner"? Sonner-Résonner was composed differently from the other pieces in my Des sons de la nature album. While the other pieces were all composed with sound objects sourced from nature, such as rocks, water, wind, or whale and bird songs, this was not the case for Sonner-Résonner. The piece was created using sounds from two man-made objects: a mixing bowl and a...
