Working out of her private studio since 2008, Bérangère Maximin (born 1976 on the island of La Réunion) has developed her own approach to sound art and electronic music, composing dense, immersive pieces with immediate impact. On a series albums which have aroused international interest (released on
John Zorn's Tzadik,
Sub Rosa, Crammed Discs/Made To Measure and Atlas Realisations), she has revealed a taste for mixing disparate sounds together with a sense of detail, effusive, lyrical playings with the digital material and tight nuanced writing. Bérangère Maximin's music engages the listener in consideration of space and textures. The sound ambivalence and its independence from its original source being at the centre of her work.
