Based in the northern French city of Lille, /sonde/ has been crafting his sonic mythscience for several years now and has previously appeared on the Dubzone compilation, and is part of the La Rushe multimedia collective. His music draws a link from roots reggae practices of using dub as means of sonic cartography, to the modern day deconstructions of minimal techno, exploring sound in its substance and temporality.
Producer and multi-instrumentist Teleseen builds abstract dub soundscapes into complexly layered feilds of ambience that have their roots as much in of post-modern theories of space and structure as they do in the works of artist like Sly and Robbie and Scientist. Rhythms are woven into densely processed noises and field recordings sourced from origins as diverse as a shortwave radio transmissions, mixer feedback, static and defective studio equipment recorded in the US, to the sounds of street corners everywhere from Crown Heights to Kampala. The music internalizes the connections between natural and manmade modes and patterns of commnication, taking reggae, dub and detroit techno as its rhythmic touchstones. Often colaborating closely with video artists. Recent releases include "Qassam" 3" CD, released in Soft Targets V.1 a new handheld journal of poetry, artwork, criticism, short fiction, found images, sound, and other ephemera, and "Paper Voice, Sufferer" released on Percepts, july '05. Teleseen's first full-length CD "WAR" releases on Percepts on August 15.
