Truly intrepid, brave *NEW* music from young Parisian anomaly Orion Music Workshop, self-released on the Les Disques Omnison press.

Still very much operating on his own frequency, Tom Val continues to traverse the fringe of the European avant-garde with perhaps the deepest decent yet.  Tapping to a healthy influence derived from the rich French legacy of fearless free jazz (I.E Jean Guérin Tacit, Bernard Vitet, Berrocal ++), this alarmingly young artist creates a deep trance-inducing tapestry of diverse, tangent-taking music that avoids easy categorisation.  It’s densely layered, wild unshackled percussion buried deep amidst remnants of disguised voices, occasional off-centre electronic rhythms and scraps of odd wind instruments.  But there seems to be a strong-focus that binds the whole work into a dense, vivid dream where you never know what’s around the next corner.  There’s introspective acoustic pieces that feel indebted to the North-African Sufi music of Areski, disjointed electronics that recall early 80s oddballs Ptôse, whilst ‘Le Secret Des Âmes Complices’ is just a beautiful moment of calm contemplation that really grounds the preceding madness back to the human realm.  Finding a unique voice in experimental music these days has to be one of the hardest things, how to be new whilst reconfiguring, reconstituting and recontextualising the heavy weight of history.  Orion’s commitment to this uncompromising spirit of non-conformity keeps us asking for more.  (Mint / New - individually numbered edition of 200 - with insert and DL // 1 per person pls!!)
