C'est quand même bruyant par ici is the project of two multi-instrumentists from Marseille, Pascal Ferrari and Yves Miara. Its kindred spirit could be Amor Belhom Duo on their "black" album: plenty of soundscapes, ideas spreading in various directions, and in the end quite a personal sound.
"This first home-recorded album is made up of 14 soundscape pieces, mainly based on compositions, themes, and textures played by two guitars, and then enhanced and arranged by adding other tones, instruments, and sounds. As a whole, it creates a sensitive and poetic universe, wuiet and close, musical, and, to a certain extent, visual."
