Ryvage consistently astonishes, leaving us perpetually in awe of their unpredictable sonic explorations. Case in point: their latest three-track single Les Nuits I, notably the standout Songes – an experimental techno masterpiece. Its tightly woven soundscapes create an almost suffocating atmosphere, interwoven with enigmatic spoken word by actress Elsa Rauchs, infusing the track with a futuristic essence. These elements converge just shy of the three-minute mark, leading into a monumental crescendo that ushers in the next phase. Crafted predominantly from field recordings gleaned from forsaken steel plants and interwoven with influences from both artists, notably Rainer Maria Rilke’s “Poems to Night,” this dystopian, futuristically experimental techno delight serves as a sonic representation of Orwell’s 1984, projected onto the canvas of 2024.
