" 'Any recording technology has a poetry'. An interrogation of mundane reality by self-taught musique concrète artist Kiko C. Esseiva. 'Parcours Fléché' (or 'Arrow marked path') represents modern life as a tightrope walk from childhood to death. Sounds of work and leisure recur, entangle & deform. Larger patterns are revealed. These are the rhythms of our days, seen at great remove. Working with elderly tape machines and digital editing, Esseiva has constructed something profound from the moments we ignored. Edition of 60. Professionally duplicated. Professionally screenprinted cover. 'In a world that usually has 'abstract' pieces without a story, Esseiva is a bit of anomaly, but an anomaly that delivered a fine work. Not just because its different, but also just because its very good. Great choice of sounds, put together in an intelligent way, and with great care for the composition'.
