Violin for bass

by Matthias Boss & André D [CML023]
album released with the netlabel Camomille Music

There’s nothing wrong with Camomille’s humble beginnings : basement dwellers with laptops, software and the occasional field recording sculpting electronic music from the ground up. Still today we value that sort of creativity. But when you come face to face with music created by the likes of Swiss and French duo Matthias Boss & André D., the word free music takes on a whole other meaning. Their improvisations are gusts of smoke and fire : poetic and free of shackles, they disperse and overtake. Violent, refined and steady.

When Camomille was launched 12 years ago, i envisioned a place where we could exchange marginal music that was heavy with content in an attempt to exchange with listeners and musicians. I’m very proud that today we are able to release such a beautiful proposition by equally grand musicians within the Camomille ideals.
