Paris Retouched - April 2007

Once again in Paris, in the Pigalle neighbourhood. Walking those streets is always a pleasure. There is so much to see, so many pretty girls, flowers, café's, people drinking their coffee, the walkings and the longings, and always the distant echoos of springtime that are so near.

We played in a cave as you should do when you are in Paris. And the next sunday we were on one of the floors of the La Générale in around the corner from little Chinatown in Belleville. It was all about recycling. There were lots of friends playing or catching sounds that haven't been heard for quite a while. Here I saw Pati doing her concert in Paris; I played with Jean Bordé; Diktat translated into sound what a quiet peacefull day feels like, and kept the doors to the backyard wide open, because that is were the real mystery starts, and poems don't need to be written.
