(activate subtitles for English !)
MEDIUM, our third album released in 2019, was quite an experiment. It’s made of two 17-minutes long songs that can be played on their own and that follow the course of a lifetime, respectively from the Body and the Mind perspective. But play both songs at the same time and you got a brand new track, "Medium", a maelstrom of harmonies, polyrythms and textures carefully arranged by the band.
In “Returning to dust: the making of Medium”, we take you through the creative process of the album and invite you to meet the many people who contributed to the record’s making and let them explain how the concept of superposition pushed each one of them to innovate in their own field.
