Repress of 150 copies on red vinyl. Born in France and currently residing in Brussels, Roxane Métayer is truly a multidisciplinary artist. Learning the violin at a young age, she also developed herself as a visual artist, creating drawings, sculptures in uncommon materials as soap, and in recent years video. Her work as a musician is of an equally spontaneous nature. Though 'Éclipse Des Ocelles' is her debut album, she's been quite active the past couple of years in the duos Gebogen Ogen and Sage Alyte (with whom she released an LP on Vlek in early 2021). On her first solo LP, Roxane Métayer fully explores the sonic possibilities of the violin, field recordings and folk oriented orchestration and melodies. The violin is often taking the melodic lead, but at the same time serves a drone background, but just as much a percussion instrument. In any case: the focus is definitely on the sound itself. She's not afraid to use effects, minimal percussion, whistles and the occasional hushed vocal to expand the sonic palette to a maximum effect, resulting in multilayered, semi-improvised and subtle meanderings, gently evolving around a tight core. Comes in a lush, full color cover, drawn and designed by Roxane herself. Recommended if you like Pefkin, The Iditarod, Sharron Kraus & Michael Tanner, R.O.T., Sage Alyte, Accident Du Travail, Laura Cannell, Kate Carr, Fursaxa, Burning Axis, field recordings and minimal compositions.
