Description
With a unique and unmistakable approach to music and his instrument,Julien Tassinis a one-of-a-kind guitar player. Using non-traditional techniques and original tunings, he creates music that combines elements of blues, jazz, classical, Oriental and African music. The result is music born out of openness and freedom. Stubbornly he repeats musical ideas until the tension reaches a boiling point, the lyricism of his melodies becomes inevitable, and the rawness of the sound takes center stage.
'Wild Around' is Julien Tassin's fourth solo album, built on the sonic and thematic foundations laid by 'Primitiv' (2022). Tassin was inspired by the wildness he saw around humanity, but also the wildness within, the inner and outer storms, the suffering of people and the refuge that music, tradition and a deep connection to nature can provide. 'Wild Around' is an ode to living in tumultuous times.
Each song presents itself as an intimate dance of a musician and his instrument which makes the album a display of the deep connection between man and acoustic guitar. To preserve the raw and wild characteristics of the music, post-production on the recordings was kept to a minimum.
With a sonic landscape that takes the listener on an intense trip and a humming voice that grounds the melodies and soothes like a soft blanket, 'Wild Around' is layered, textured, impressive, captivating and wholly unique.
