about

After improvising for several years together in Germany, Marie Takahashi and Cedrik Fermont decided to record their first studio album.
Free improvised music for viola, gongs and cymbals, mainly.

Marie Takahashi, a Modern and Baroque violist, composer and improviser was born in Sapporo, Japan, in 1985.

Having a classical and early music background she builds vivid contrasts of minimal/abstract and expressive sounds.

She has worked with many international musicians including Tristan Honsinger, Axel Dörner, Hui-Chun Lin, Shuichi Chino, Joel Grip, Antonio Borghini, Cedrik Fermont, Michel Doneda, Sylvia Hinz, Burkhard Beins, Tadahiko Yokogawa, Toshimaru Nakamura.

Her curiosity has led her to collaborate with artists from various disciplines such as live video, film, animation, theatre, break dance, butoh dance, tattooing, poetry and prose writing.
One of her specialities is creating with plastic artists and she has worked with James Devlin, Éric Fourmestraux, Tea Mäkipää, Laure Catugier, Akane Kimbara and Riccardo Buck.

In 2018 she began experimental composition using calligraphy techniques, colours, shapes and numbers.

Cedrik Fermont aka C-drík, aka Kirdec is a Berlin-based Belgian-Congolese composer, musician, mastering engineer, author, radio host, concert organiser, independent researcher and label manager (at Syrphe) who operates in the field of noise, electronic and experimental music since 1989. His compositions and installations vary from sound art and electroacoustic to noise to industrial to more conventional “dance” music such as electronica or acid and so on. He has toured extensively in Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Europe and North America, and his main research focuses on electronic, electroacoustic, experimental and noise music from Asia and Africa.

He has published music (solo and in bands like Axiome, Ambre, Elekore, Moonsanto, Tasjiil Moujahed, etc.) on various labels such as Ant-Zen, Hymen, Hushush, Mad Monkey Records, Ad Noiseam, Old Europa Cafe, Nostalgie De La Boue, to name a few.

In 2017 he released together with Dimitri della Faille the book Not Your World Music: Noise In South East Asia, winner of the 2017 "Golden Nica" Prix Ars Electronica in the "Digital Musics & Sound Art" category.
