Nâr (beirut-lb)
Héron Cendré (rennes-fr)
presented by les ateliers claus x nuits beau tas x moli del tro
◥ Nâr ◣ (Beirut / live act after residency at les ateliers claus)
is a Swiss Lebanese multi-instrumentalist and singer based in Beirut.
In a constant metamorphosis, she works with various instruments, her voice and different objects she finds. Abrasive, hypnotic, NÂR's lives are sonic experiments and improvisations built up from A to Z, often led by short sentences on repeat like mantras. Her music takes its roots in a very large spectrum of sounds, inspiration or genre such as middle eastern and north African trance, industrial, electronic and grime music. Lately playing with a set up essentially composed of clocks, carillons and other metallic objects, the musician is showing a new face with more radical directions and raw sounds.

◥ Héron Cendré ◣ (Rennes)
Born in la Hague near Cherbourg and based in Rennes for 7 years, Héron Cendré builds a poetic world made of sounds from modular synthesizers, field recordings picked up in schools and other minimal lofi weirdness. The album 3-4 released on moli del tro records is a perfect example of this. It's « a pure, minimal, chaotic, holy, cosmic, tender skill, somewhere between a movie soundtrack and a signal from outer-space » (Gonzaï). His influences include Terry Riley, Philippe Glass, Hiroshi Yoshimura, François de Roubaix, Jean-Jacques Perrey and Pierre Bastien.
