Tim Brady – For Electric Guitar

Frédéric Cardin — Thu, 11 Dec 2025 01:15:20 +0000

First solo discographic opus with his compositions since 2012, and above all, first exercise of the kind since his Parkinson’s diagnosis (2023), guitarist Tim Brady once again demonstrates on For Electric Guitar why he is one of the most respected contemporary creators in the world for the development of a “scholarly” language of the electric […]

Gladhanding – Gladhanding

Frédéric Cardin — Fri, 26 Sep 2025 14:19:15 +0000

I really, really like this release from the Montreal electronics trio Gladhanding. In a construction that I would describe as benevolent chaos, a vast assemblage of electro debris, vintage pop, hip-hop and a little R’n’B is presented to us with great conviction. The seemingly dishevelled whole appears stable and very solid once you look at […]

Robert Humber – Threnody for Rocking Chair

Frédéric Cardin — Tue, 26 Aug 2025 23:24:30 +0000

I had prepared myself for an experience of abstract, probably abrasive music. On the contrary, Threnody for Rocking Chair by Newfoundlander Robert Humber was a soothing dive into a sound world tinged with gentle nostalgia. The composer no longer lives in his native province, but returns frequently. It is the feeling of fullness and natural […]

Maria Gajraj – Exhale

Frédéric Cardin — Fri, 16 May 2025 20:11:02 +0000

If Montrealer Maria Gajraj is still a hidden treasure, trust your humble servant here to try and turn that situation around. The young lady from Ottawa, barely in her twenties, plays the organ, an animal she began taming at the age of 19! A bit late, some might say. No matter, the advantage probably being […]

LMNL – Rainbow

Frédéric Cardin — Tue, 06 May 2025 15:52:16 +0000

If you’re looking for a total immersion in a bewitching, even hypnotising universe of sound, look no further than this album by the LMNL collective, led by Toronto multi-instrumentalist Jerry Pergolesi (a distant relative of Giovanni Batista?). Rainbow is a tribute to The Wizard of Oz‘s “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” Against a backdrop of electronic […]

ContaQt/Yaz Lancaster/Evan Ziporyn – ConneQt IV

Frédéric Cardin — Thu, 27 Mar 2025 19:45:55 +0000

At less than thirty minutes, ConneQt IV is far too short, which is an advantage if you want to make music lovers want to come back and see you again. Less is more, as the Serbo-Croats say (!). Three works between eight and ten minutes in length are on the program of this almost-EP, all […]

Leslie Ting – What Brings You In (Top Albums 2024)

Réjean Beaucage — Thu, 09 Jan 2025 16:34:21 +0000

Toronto-based violinist Leslie Ting is a multi-disciplinary artist whose productions make use of performance and theater. What’s more, her works are often immersive. No surprise, then, to find here a disc that offers a stereo mix of the pieces, and another that offers the same program, but in a binaural version. Binaural recording, which seeks […]

Kamra – Shift Circuit

Frédéric Cardin — Sat, 05 Oct 2024 21:32:19 +0000

The Chitlin’ Circuit was a network of concert venues frequented by black artists in the United States during the era of racial segregation, from the 1930s to 1960s. Shift Circuit is a contemporary take on it by artist Kamra, who infuses it with a queer character that they invite to blossom through a program of […]

India Gailey – Problematica

Frédéric Cardin — Mon, 26 Feb 2024 16:31:35 +0000

I recently told you about India Gailey, a Halifax-based Canadian cellist who gave a concert at the Sala Rossa in Montreal on 4 February. She was presenting the contents of her album Problematica, not yet released at the time. Well, it’s out now, and the result is exactly what we heard that evening: a cross […]

An Laurence – Almost Touching

Frédéric Cardin — Tue, 24 May 2022 14:32:50 +0000

An Laurence is a Chinese-Quebecer guitarist and artist well-versed in the world of experimental and avant-garde music. Almost Touching presents works for guitar, voice, and electronics, not always all three at the same time, by contemporary composers, many of them Canadian. A Serenata for solo guitar by Sofia Gubaidulina, written in 1969, is considered a […]
