Statement of intention by Fran\u00e7ois Chaignaud:<\/span><\/p>\n

The point of departure of our reunion was odd rhythms \u2013 7 beats \u2013 which are anomalies in our orthonormal and binary Western environments, which form a challenge to our respective practices.\u00a0 It is through the percussion of my feet on the ground that I sought to confront Aymeric; this led us to develop a percussive (heels against the floor, lips against the microphone), implacable, slightly liming, and rough music. The feet and the mouth stand in opposition, bodies are sculpted and activated through these two extremities, and we arrive in a place that is simultaneously connected to the underground and the skies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Our encounter has become a confrontation, a competition, an alliance, a ritual \u2013 somber and tiring it appeared to invoke its antidote, its underside. Those few moments we shared in the opacity of the studio confirmed our desire to meet regularly to let these mirlitons escape, confront and comfort each other.<\/span><\/p>\n

The scene is an <\/span>arena<\/b>. Two masked bodies, martial,<\/span><\/p>\n

unrecognizable, humble, and rattling. Microphones, loudspeakers,<\/span><\/p>\n

risers, bells, shoes. A <\/span>ritual<\/b> of presentations, a<\/span><\/p>\n

confrontation<\/b>, a knot, a <\/span>denouement<\/b>. A<\/span><\/p>\n

total saturation of frequencies and muscles: a therapy through<\/span><\/p>\n

excess. Bodies and sounds torn between the<\/span><\/p>\n

melancholy <\/b>of vanished rituals and the<\/span><\/p>\n

aggressiveness<\/b> of actuality. <\/span>Lips<\/b> and<\/span><\/p>\n

heels <\/b>in search of a forgotten code. A gracious and enduring<\/span><\/p>\n

duel of beatbox and percussions: a wall, a halo, an ancient world<\/span><\/p>\n

lost in the face of toxic perspiration, buried in the two fighters.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fran\u00e7ois Chaignaud<\/b>, a 2003 graduate from the National Superior Conservatory of Paris for Music and Dance, Fran\u00e7ois Chaignaud has danced for many choreographer., including Alain Buffard, Boris Charmatz, Emmanuelle Huynh, and Gilles Jobin. Since his first piece in 2004, he weaves for dance the aspiration of a comprehensive expression.<\/span><\/p>\n

His work is characterized by the articulation of singing and dance (\u0414\u0443\u043c\u0438 \u043c\u043e\u0457, 2013) and a profound relationship to history. In 2021, he founded Mandorle Productions, whose artistic line is based on the cooperation with other artists. He also creates pieces for large groups of performers: Soufflette 2018 for Carte Blanche, the piece t u m u l u s with Geoffroy Jourdain (Les Cris de Paris) in 2022.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Aymeric Hainaux<\/b>, with his background in the visual arts, Aymeric Hainaux is invested in a very personal approach of tthe human beatbox. He creates machine sounds so precise as the famous Roland TR909, and his incomparable technique makes him one of the prominent artists of this art. Hainaux \u201cplays what happens,\u201d and his performances are a music of the present instant, attentive to silence and movement. Without a loop pedal, but the use of a microphone, some bells, a harmonica, and sometimes a cassettes player, all exclusively played in real time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With banjo player St\u00e9phane Barascud, in 2013, he created the music brut duo Cantenac Dagar. The group has released a dozen records, and this duo remains Hainaux\u2019s main musical project.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
