[OUTTA064] Le Comte Champetre – Ephemerides

Presenting the debut Outtallectuals EP from the Le Comte Champêtre project by French musician, Pacôme Nivon; ‘Ephemerides’ is a 5-track journey representing the change and characteristics of seasons which is being released on the Winter Solstice. The EP starts with ‘Iarnă’ to signify the winter, taking inspiration from Romanian communist music, with the participation of Lea Clement on the violin.

‘Por El Rio Va’ is inspired by Gamelean Indonesian music, and takes place between winter and spring to represent the melting of ice running down the mountains.The jazzy tones of ‘Vorvakning’ symbolise the jubilance of natural renewal with upbeat concepts, while the warmer Balkan / Middle Eastern tones of Alsayf take us into the summer heat. Certain motifs in Alsayf are inspired by El Hilwa Di, a composition by the music of Palestinian artist, Ramzi Aburedwan.

The EP closes with Hovvi Mazurkan which returns the saudade of shortening days in Autumn, utilising a 7/4 edition of a mazurka groove, settling the album back to the origins of its cycle.
