Gwynncore Using a minimalist kind of style that almost requires headphones to really be heard well Peri Esvultras weaves enthralling and surreal soundscapes. L'Oxymore is an absolutely captivating release that any Avant-Garde or Ambient fan must experience. Favorite track: L'Âge.

about

This album was released by Petroglyph Music (555).

Most of Peri Esvultras compositions are built like short electroacoustic dark ambient symphonies, which take elements of Industrial, drone and noise music without being any of those genres. Peri Esvultras is a sonic project closer to sound art generally made out of manipulated metallic sources - no real instruments - which are then intuitively reassembled together through improvisation and editing (collage) involving much trial and errors.
'L'Oxymore' can be considered as the darkest and the most orchestral work by Peri Esvultras - the end of the album is like an aria in two movements and works, for the last eponymous composition, as a coda.

The inspiration for this album finds its roots in the idea that opinions are of a very malleable fashion and it works in some circular way depending on the context, the age of the person or of the era, the wind of concepts and ideas which are blown in and out of our minds in the most slippery manner through medias, parents, schools, clans of friends and acquaintances, where the beginning of our thoughts is their ends and the end of our thoughts is their beginnings like some centripetal oxymoron.

It sounds better with a good pair of headphones.

Your patience will be rewarded.
