Sometimes, from the first opening seconds of an album it can be immediately clear that this one is different…
“This one is different…” was what I felt immediately after hearing the first notes of Nicolas Bernier‘s new album “Frequencies (a / Fragments)“.
** This post has been edited to add info about the “Kooh” remix version: read below **
Any album that is created using “microscopic particles that were developed by myriads of voices”, and claims to include “many territories of ultra-high frequencies, marking over 20 kHz that human ears are incapable of catching” immediately gets my undivided attention.
Especially when “these ultra-high frequencies are often included in sounds of nature such as the flow of the river, the forest, the waterfalls, and the wind blowing through the trees. Most of these which we consider as comfortable nature sounds include these ultra-high frequencies, and it is also said that these ultra-high frequencies have the effect to make the human brain relaxed.”
