Glauque

Rap, hip-hop, ultra-worked lyrics, a unique electronic universe, hundreds (thousands?) of cables on stage, a Glauque concert is an unforgettable experience.

GLAUQUE
Glauque has made its mark on the contemporary music scene with a strong identity. Open to electronic experimentation, the group has modified the DNA of hip-hop and exploded the codes of French chanson.

An all-terrain group, an out-of-category collective, Glauque weaves its way between algorithms and news feeds. Anchored at the heart of a hyper-connected society, the group plays on the double meaning of its name. Between the bright colour of seawater and indefinite despair, Glauque's universe is based on striking contrasts. Through its music, the band crystallises the paradoxes of our times. At the crossroads of technological progress, ecological challenges and a humanity in danger, the world of fake news is not necessarily the one we see. As with George Orwell and Philip K. Dick, the reality of Glauque is linked to dystopia and science fiction.

Beyond the euphoria and captivating beginnings of a first EP acclaimed by the critics in 2020, Glauque is now ready to move on to the next stage with the release of its first album.

Needless to say, Glauque does not seek to embellish reality, but to plunge headlong into it and confront us with its inextricable realities. The lace is embroidered with internal battles, incessant struggles and deterministic questions. What to think, what to follow or not to follow, what place to take in a world where we can question the ever-increasing absurdity of a daily life that often takes the form of a scenario where black and white clash without nuance.

Glauque's contemporary poetry is sharpened by a penetrating electronic beat, always with the energy of urgency.

AUST
Originally from Neuchâtel, AUST produces dense, emotional electronic music (electronica, ambient, IDM). A passionate self-taught musician, he surrounds himself with tape recorders and analogue synthesizers to feed his music with organic textures. His debut album 'The Beauty Of Dying' was released at the end of 2022 to great acclaim. He plays bass in its entirety and sings on several tracks. Little influenced by passing fashions, AUST places the search for beauty at the heart of his artistic approach. The listener finds himself plunged into an accomplished world imbued with a powerful melancholy, the true signature of the project.
