Wings Of An Angel :: Requiem For An Anonymous Genius

Country: Israel
Release date: July, 2010
Netlabel: Paralucid
“This mesmerizing album is definitely your most esoteric work to date. It perfectly reflects the twilight zone where your genius ideas and surprising influences converge. I don’t think anyone, anywhere, manages to cohesively entwine free jazz and middle eastern sounds in a beautiful way as you do. Your music is so well worked out and expressively subtle that it belongs to its own league without a shadow of a doubt. Wings of an Angel – you have done it once again. A genius of the subconscious. Your music is a timeless manifestation of spiritual transcendence via sound-poetry. You are the darkest guru whose unique creative output endlessly reminds me that we are Gods. You combine in one person the pure innocence of the archetypal poet and the crabbed wrath of the archetypal prophet. Up to now, each project of yours was without parallel!” [archive.org]

Uniform Motion are not an ordinary band. At least not in the original meaning of the word – this bunch of young French men are more than a musical formation, they emerged and grew as an entire art project, combining their three foundations of creative work: words, sounds and looks. Claiming to be influenced and driven by the things in life that, as the band states in their biography, âhit usâ, their understanding of the all underlying principle of life descibes a continual straight line of projections which is only changed through major events.

Entertainment For The Braindead :: Roadkill

A Note from Julia (Entertainment For The Braindead):
“Sometimes a tiny, coincidental discovery can open completely new horizons. Like when you’re on a crowded party and that one person you decide to talk to turns out to be the love of your life. Or when you’re in a room full of instruments and for once you decide to not to pick the lute, not the weird, fascinating cello-like instrument on the wall… but the banjo.
The Roadkill EP was born from one of these discoveries. There are lots of instruments that I’d always really wished to own or be able to play, a piano, a cello, a harp, a clarinette… but I would never had expected that one day I could fall in love with a banjo.
Yet since this is exactly what happened, I decided to start exploring this instrument’s versatility by recording a couple of songs equipped with nothing else but a banjo. (Well… I admit, there’s a tambourine in one song..)
Over the last four months I collected those songs. They occasionally sprouted, sometimes several a day, sometimes none for weeks, and then grew and ripened. I harvested them at home, though a bit more carefully than usual. They tell little tales of friendship and failure, of discovering the world and of hiding at home, and the banjo helped tracing their contours and gave them a shape.
It brought me through a very cold winter. Now maybe it can brighten yours a bit, too?
