A distinctive sound in France’s musical landscape featuring the compositional methods of “concrete music” plus a certain affinity for American aesthetics. Éliane Radigue and her faithful ARP 2500 synthesizer and tape recorder built an electronic opus. Today she transcends divisions between instrumentalist and composer, researching, searching for and creating sound with no electronics.
