« Il est ce temps pour écouter la somme des murmures,
Lors du vent d’autant, son souffle, sans cesser, dévoile dans son cheminement, le mystère des contrées lointaines.
Les habitants des hautes collines le savent, il n’y a aucun doute, les prairies siffleront, les pyrénnées étaient visible la veille, l’autan bol bufa.
Il eu écho dans le village.
L’autan, malicieux ce jour-ci (...) »

Low Volume Randomization returns with Séance à Trois Corps, a 10-track tape and digital compilation featuring Gustave Retour and co-founders Edouard-Marc and Konalgad. The release includes three tracks from Edouard-Marc and Konalgad, alongside four from Gustave Retour. The title nods to the three-body problem in celestial mechanics—a mathematical study of gravitational interactions between three masses—here serving as a metaphor for the trio’s sonic interplay.
From the first moments of Side A to the final echoes of Side B, the project traverses shadowy rhythms, intricate sound design, and dense textural layers. Atonal ambient drifts into half-step bass pressure, fractured hip-hop grunge mutates into rapid psychedelic techno. A tightly controlled mix: weighted sub-bass, sharp highs, and deliberate negative space.
Each element, in its subtlety, encourages a three-body solution to the problem, carrying with it the tension of the uncontrollable randomness of things.

Co-founder @edekuser having a walk this summer putting on some posters in the streets of Liège and Lisbon, presenting our newly formed label and his EP made with @bastooooooooooo as bleu noir.
Their EP “Naviguer à vue” is out now on Bandcamp. Digital and Cassettes!
Our first release by bleu noir is out now, available on digital and cassette through our Bandcamp.
“Naviguer à vue” is the story in a fictitious and picturesque imagination, of a collective adventure taking place on a boat. The construction and launching of it, welcoming “Hordes” of people, are represented by “Recherche hivernale”. A long aquatic journey through “Brume épaisse”, filled with “Emergences of details”, as beautiful as they are stressful. Presented to the people on the boat is an internal and collective struggle, “Psychomachia”. A battle between vice and virtue, between the humble human and the one of a self-centered and selfish society. “Inno”, floating on the surface and swimming, between two worlds, unable to leave the fluid and yet aware that it exists. A track that could have been called “Innolude”. The sound translations of these different emotions and sensitivities, vectorized by “Diversions currents then landscapes”, make this EP a true journey.
