Following the critically acclaimed album “Moving Cities”, recorded and produced with Makaya McCraven, Antoine Berjeaut – a stalmart of the European jazz scene – returns with “Chromesthesia”. Crafted together with some of the most innovative musicians of the French jazz circuit, this exciting new album will be out June 3 through French-Japanese record label MENACE.
Chromesthesia (or sound-to-color synesthesia) is a type of synesthesia in which sound involuntarily evokes an experience of color, shape, and movement.
Antoine Berjeaut seeks synesthetic resonances between sound and colors, guided by the intuition that he can write music while using concepts and processes inherent to graphic art; playing with contrasts and nuances the way he plays with scales and keys, and tracing melodic lines in a constantly moving world, both graphic and sonic.
