about

EN // The Average By Six is a project of Parisian musician Karim Mokhtari.
Radio frequencies. Interludes. Leitmoiv. Lo-fi treatment. Granular. Montage and samples. To cut a piece. To change frequencies. Summer folk atmosphere. Maritime images. one finds himself thinking of possible messages, signals sent from one ship to the other, from the sea to the coast. A Bermuda Triangle's story dawns. A list of found things. And time as well. Mixing decades and rythms. Arrhythmia. End of the sixties. Yellow. Far away. End of the seventies. Voice effects. Beatles and Wyatt. Eightie. Wise punk. Nineties. Cobain exhausted. Faded. A very young Johnny Cash. He plays with The Doors. Morrison daydreams. An ancient piano. 1920. 1921. Hiking in bell-bottoms with a bushy beard. In the desert. Pink Floyd under a burning sun. Shuffling. Deconstructed. A very low inner voice. A door creaks. A car. Eras and territories. Kerouac's Satori. Burrough's Interzone. Maybe Ballard's apocalypses. A soundtrack for the Beat Generation. Cinema and road movie. Inevitably in the U.S. in August.
_Jérôme Poirier

FR // The Average By Six est le projet du musicien parisien Karim Mokhtari.
Fréquences radio. Interludes. Leitmoiv. Traitement lo-fi. Granuleux. Montage et samples. Couper un morceau. Changer de fréquence. Ambiance folk été. Image maritime. On se surprend à imaginer des messages, des signaux envoyés d'un bateau à l'autre, de la mer à la terre. On sent poindre une histoire de triangle des bermudes. La liste des pièces retrouvées. Le temps, aussi. Mélange des époque, des rythmes. Arythmies. Fin des sixties. Jaune. Lointain. Puis fin seventies. Des effets dans la voix. Beatles et Wyatt. Eightie. Punk sage. Nineties. Cobain épuisé. Délavé. Johnny Cash est plus jeune. Il joue avec les Doors. Morrison rêvasse. Puis un piano très ancien. 1920. 1921. Une marche en patte d'eph et grosse beubar. Dans le désert. Pink Floyd sous un soleil de plomb. Traînant. Déconstruit. Une voix très grave, intérieure. Une porte qui grince. Une voiture. Les époques et les territoires. Le satori de Kerouac. L'interzone de Burroughs. Peut-être aussi Ballard et ses apocalypses. Une bande son pour la beat generation. Le cinéma et le road movie. Nécéssairement aux états-unis en août.
