Jeu du monde (6 CD box set)

Lionel Marchetti - Jeu du monde (6 CD box set)
"Jeu du monde" is a collection of around twenty musique concrète pieces which spreads over more than six hours of music. Each CD has been designed as an audio film which tells a full story. The box set includes previously released works which have long been unavailable, reworked versions of digital releases, as well as unreleased pieces especially composed for this occasion.
With the use of a complex sound palette (synthesizers, analog and digital manipulation, percussion, low fidelity samplers, radios, Revox, vocals, prepared piano, field recordings…), Lionel Marchetti takes us through an audio landscape in which the acoustic imagination feeds on nature and its diversity: the desert, the upper atmosphere—mankind—night and day, fire, death, until we disappear into the ocean space…
Includes: 32 page booklet illustrated by Adèle Marchetti.
Presentation texts by Denis Boyer, Régis Poulet, Frédéric Neyrat, Yann Leblanc and the composer himself.
Some compositions were co written with Yôko Higashi and Olivier Capparos. Seijiro Murayama, Sébastien Églème, Isabelle Duthoit, Patrick Charbonnier are also featured.

Lionel Marchetti (born 1967 in Marseille) is a French composer of concrete music and improviser (electronics, various analogic systems with modified speakers, REVOX reel-to-reel recorder…) as well as a visual-sound artist, a writer and a poet. Whether his music is composed or improvised the body has an important role.
Lionel Marchetti also writes poetry and essays on the art of musique concrète, as a practicing artist of the genre.
