In April 2018, duo Not The Music composed of Éric Normand and Philippe Lauzier, invite for a Canadian tour, the English saxophonist John Butcher to join them. A concert in Montréal at Galerie B-312 and another in Ottawa at the General Assembly make the material for this new improv album on Ambiances Magnétiques record label. In a calm not so calm, as on a disused territory in cracking, through the disorder of the elements, the three protagonists evolve a sound environment which clashes and revives into variations of intensities.

En avril 2018 le duo Not The Music composé d’Éric Normand et Philippe Lauzier, invite dans le cadre d’une tournée canadienne, le saxophoniste anglais John Butcher à se joindre à eux. Un concert à Montréal à la Galerie B-312 et un autre à Ottawa au General Assembly, forment le matériel de ce nouvel album d’improvisation sur l'étiquette Ambiances Magnétiques. Dans un calme pas si calme, comme sur un territoire désaffecté, en fissurage et dans le désordre des éléments, les trois protagonistes font évoluer un environnement sonore qui s’entrechoque et se relance dans des variations d’intensités. La concentration en équilibre et le contraste des individualités, font que cette rencontre est heureuse sans que l’on comprenne ce qui s’est passé…
