When I approach a collaboration, I always feel a mix of curiosity and fear. Working remotely, it's not easy to communicate your thoughts with your collaborator, and often the risk of misunderstandings or tensions can lead to ruining the simple initial idea of blending your musical worlds together.
In recent years, I've been fortunate to work with people who share the same way of experiencing music, and I must say that this new collaboration with Anthony Elfort is part of this positive trend. "Le tissage des reves" is the first collaboration with the sound of Toàn, whom I got to know by publishing his album Phonolite for Krysalisound in 2022. I consider Anthony one of the most talented musicians I have met so far, with an ability to create musical collages of infinite beauty and extraordinary compositions, and I feel extremely honored to have had the chance to enter his world.
It's an album of a dreamy nature that blends electroacoustic, ambient, jazz, and electronic sounds in nine medium-length tracks to accompany the listener to those delicate and suffused territories that only dreams can offer.
I don't know if there will be new chapters with Anthony in the future, but for sure, "Le tissage des reves" will remain for a long time among my most successful collaborations.
