Musicien autodidacte, Arnaud Rivière pratique l’improvisation libre à tendance bruitiste en solo, en groupe et dans le cadre de rencontres, depuis la fin des années 90.
"Il y a un disque sur le plateau. il tourne. Je manoeuvre le bouton d’arrêt : impossible de l’arrêter, il tourne de plus en plus vite, l’aiguille ne peut pas suivre, le bras prend d’extraordinaires positions, l’intérieur du phono ronfle comme une chaudière, on voit des espèces de flammes, et le luisant du disque noir, affolé ; d’abord l’idée que le phono va se détraquer, une angoisse limitée, puis qui devient immense : TOUT va exploser ; une rébellion magique, incompréhensible, c’est un dérèglement de tout. […] Using a rudimentary electroacoustic device built around a repaired turntable (pick- up), a prepared-mixer and other primitive equipement that need manipulation - to make it brief -, Arnaud Rivière practises free improvisation, playing solo, in groups and through collaborations, since the late 90’s. He has performed with musicians such as Roger Turner, Matin Tétreault, Erik M, John Boyle & Aya Onishi (Bayal and Nihilist Spasm Band), Alexandre Bellenger, Jean-Philippe Gross, Pascal Battus, Miho, Sophie Agnel, Thomas Bonvalet (L’Ocelle Mare), Julien Desprez, Anla Courtis (Reynols), Adam Bohman, Mario De Vega, Joke Lanz, Aaron Moore & Daniel Padden & Lawrence Coleman (Volcano The Bear), Gert-Jan Prins, Ignaz Schick, Mario Gabola, Clayton Thomas, Olivier DiPlacido, DJ Sniff, Mat Pogo, Jérôme Noetinger or Erik D’Orion, Since 2011, he participates to Onceim, an orchestra of 30 musicians based in Paris working between large free improvisation and interpretation of pieces especially written for the orchestra by inner-members or composers as Eliane Radigue, Stephen O’Maley, Peter Ablinger, John Tilbury, etc) In addition to these instrumental works, he conceived sound installations as LA TURBOTHEQUE (an absurd kind of juke-box that basically reads music vertically instead of the horizontally) or AUDIOMATON (a video made noises made exclusively with mouthes by people in the streets of Valparaiso, Chile). He has engaged a wrok on video about sound in situations with Jerome Fino and Yann Leguay with projects as E-drumming is not a crime or Direct Out. His music has been mechanically reproduced on CD-R, CD, vynils (7’’ & 12’’), e-files, via labels such as Beta-lactam Ring Records, Textile Records, Le Petit Mignon, Galerie Pache, Fragment, Intro-In SItu, Desetxea, Revue SIC, Disques Bloc Thyristors, Intransitive Recordings, ArtKillArt or Les Potagers Natures. More than fifteen items in total that were also opportunities for graphical collaborations with collectives such as Elshopo, La Commissure or people like Vincent Mauger or Frédéric Voisin. |
