Le Bruxellois Baptiste Martin alias Les Halles compose depuis 2012 une musique fragile, à l’aide d’une flûte de pan, de field recordings et de nappes de clavier nébuleuses. Après des sorties sur Not Not Fun Records, notamment, il fera halte à l’AB Salon pour nous présenter son nouvel opus, signé sur le label de cassettes Hare Akedod. Baptiste à propos de son dernier album :

'Golden Hour I-VI, was made on the computer, between Lyon and Paris in late 2018. I made dozens of patches with a modeling synth and tried to somehow recreate sounds of acoustic instruments, using happy accidents and randomness. Second side, Golden Hour VII, is a 12-minute piece that I started to compose during a week-long residency at Silo in Cannes-et-Clairan, South of France, September 2018. On site was a large concrete silo where the sound endlessly twirls and spins around. I composed the piece creating samples of different synths and various digital tools playing with the reverb. End of the afternoon after the working sessions, it was nice to go up the silo, sip wine and contemplate the golden hour with the co-residents.' B.Martin
