MUTEK 2024 | Tati au Miel… Burning Reverie

by Alain Brunet

At the Satosphère on Friday and Saturday, Mutekians spent a fascinating, tumultuous, brutal and no less nourishing hour. Tati au Miel presented a live set entitled Reverie, an invitation to dreams oscillating slowly between bliss, serenity, healing and trauma, nightmare, strangeness and anger.

We discovered him in the midst of a pandemic, and we can’t help but notice once again his undeniable talent for generating atmospheres where the fire within him manages to set us ablaze. Within these incandescent drones and abstract forms, the melodic cues and harmonic constructions are extremely sketchy, distant evocations of soul and black folklore to name but a few.

The track taken in Reverie is linear from the outset, but reveals often violent surprises, magical apparitions, visits from virtual spectres and other ambushes that leave us on our heels from start to finish of this brilliant performance. Intense-colored images, blazes of light and shaggy shapes dot the Sato’s skyline, while sound materials crackle in fusion.

Seemingly hardcore, industrial, drone or dark ambient, Tati’s honeyed sound world turns out to be broader and more complex than this nomenclature of referents. His vocal interventions and sound objects animated in front of us flesh out his electronic discourse, a discourse founded first and foremost on intuition and the desire to explore.

The Montreal artist has a raw talent for drawing us into a captivating audio-visual world, and concluding with a powerful jungle/drum’n’bass acceleration. We see and hear what burns. What slices. What pulverizes. What lifts. What rises from the ashes.
