sepia hours


01. tightrope walker
02. balance
03. petals flutter, a whisper is flared
04. he's back and brings another day
05. sequence
06. midnight thoughts
07. i can't wait until i see

Sepia hours is an indietronica/post- modern songwriting project by Sébastien Biset, from Belgium. What about “post-modernism” in this music ? An emphasis on fragmented forms, discontinuous narratives, and random-seeming collages of different materials.

He needs to control his explorations, using his simple instruments in unconventional ways. The mood is not however dark, but rather calm and peaceful.The landscape of sound is very serene. Dreamy vocals and ambient grooves, layers and melodies continue to appear, a series of interconnecting lines move with the waves of music . Harmonies and playful quality made it accessible… Between instrumental minimalism, indie songs, experimentation and electronics, whispers and veiled samplers, between attempts and unavoidable errors, sounds investigations try to come as pure organic material.

Trough this music, we look at sequences of time like in a subtil microscope. Unknow ways to discover. Naïve curse to leave a mark, like a failure. Then turn the page, breathe, and go away…

All songs written, performed, recorded and mixed by Sébastien Biset, Spring 2005.
