Today sees the release of “Musique Sans Paroles”, Pierre Rousseau’s, better known as one half of Parisian duo Paradis, debut solo offering on Tim Sweeney’s Beats In Space label. Breezing between earnest orchestration and radiant dance tracks, the six-track record represents a return to Rousseau’s creative fountainhead; the influences, the instruments, and the city at the doorway of the artist’s origin story reopened. “Musique Sans Paroles” marks the first of three releases on the way from Pierre Rousseau in 2020.
Director Joseph Bird collaborated with Rousseau on six “photographs with a pulse,” a series of visual stills with subtle emotional motives, for each of the songs on “Musique Sans Paroles”. We’ve already featured Paris, and now you can watch the video for the record’s opening title track, which features a short vocal recording by Mana Haraguchi introducing the record, and field recordings from the streets of Paris and Tokyo.
“Musique Sans Paroles” is out now via Beats In Space Records. Buy it here.
