Lionel Marchetti

Lionel Marchetti is among a small number of performers who within the mid-to-late 1990s took electroacoustic music from academics studios and in to the free of charge improvisation band. A scholar who worked well in the CFMI (Lyon) and GRM (Paris) studios and released a publication on acousmatic composer Michel Chion, Marchetti created a set-up of microphones and loudspeakers he uses on stage alongside tape recorders, ready CDs, motors and radios. He frequently identifies his “tools” as an “electroacoustic contraption.” His live use Jérôme Noetinger discovered echoes within the strategy of Swiss and Austrian abstractionists like Tone of voice Split, Günter Müller, and Werner Dafeldecker, but Marchetti is mainly energetic in France, carrying out regularly in the golf club Les Instants Chavirés with the event Musique Actions. His studio function encompasses audio collage (Knud El Nom de Serpent) and educational electroacoustics (Sirrus, Family portrait d’un Glacier), even though degree of poetry and refusal of genre limitations in his music places him nearer to Kristoff K.Move and Luc Ferrari than Pierre Henry or Bernard Parmegiani. Marchetti was created in France in 1967. His fascination with music resides within the characteristics of audio. He began to test by himself and later on discovered the wealthy French corpus of musique concrète through Xavier Garcia. From 1989 to 2002 he was mounted on the CFMI studios in Lyon where he still works workshops. The very first large-scale function he created there is Sirrus (1989-1990, released just in 2001). Pursuing his encounter with label owner and fellow audio experimentalist Jérôme Noetinger, he started to launch materials on Metamkine in 1993, quickly developing his own tone of voice away from Michel Chion’s impact. Knud El Nom de Serpent (Le Cercle des Entrailles) was his initial American discharge (on Intransitive, 2001). Albums begun to multiply in 2001. Beginning in 1993, some live and improvisation-based tasks would operate parallel to his even more academic profession. The Marchetti-Noetinger duo was the to begin such tasks and continues to be the longest long lasting one. Right away their make of abstract real-time change of noises hinted on the lowercase/microsound esthetic that could soon dominate avant-garde circles on the convert of the millennium. The set has recorded being a duet (Mort aux Vaches, 2001) but additionally within larger groupings (Double Clean with Voice Split, an eponymous discharge with Mathieu Werchowski). Each of them are also mixed up in audio-visual task Le Cube. Furthermore, Marchetti performs using the important improv collective Archipel (with Emmanuel Petit, Sophie Agnel, Fabrice Charles, Pascal Bathus, and Werchowski).
