Spaces Of Silence with Tour-Maubourg

Spaces Of Silence with Tour-Maubourg is a fourteen-track album filled with beautiful ambient tracks as well as sprawling house tracks that tickle the dancing nerves.

From spearheading France's jazz-house and electronica scenes to amassing millions of streams for lauded tracks such as "Ode To Love," "Manhattan To Brooklyn," and "Artifice," Tour-Maubourg is a flag bearer for modern French electronic music. Reminiscent of St Germain from years gone by, his maiden album - "Paradis Artificiels" - received critical acclaim upon its release two years ago.

I composed this album in Brussels at my grandparents' house between February 2021 and July 2022 where I set up a small studio. I saw it as a return to my personal roots, as it was the first time since I left Belgium in 2013 that I found myself composing here again. I took advantage of this period away from the overflowing Parisian atmosphere and away from the people I loved who I've been around for seven years, to be truly alone with my music.

The name "Spaces of Silence" echoes the tinnitus that I have had permanently had since 2018. Silence is a state that I find paradoxically in music, one that allows me not to hear this tinnitus. Each track - each composition - is therefore one of the keys that allows me to find a certain balance. I composed this album with the intention of expressing this notion of noise and silence using tape, cassette, background noise and field recordings.
Tour-Maubourg

Now, his new album "Spaces Of Silence" continues in such a vein, representing a tribute to his home country of Belgium and embodying a year-long journey into deep, musical solitude.
