An experimental album by Hubert Lenoir, Lou-Adriane Cassidy, Alexandre Martel and PE Beaudoin

The collective of musicians made up of Hubert Lenoir, Lou-Adriane Cassidy, Alexandre Martel and PE Beaudoin presents an album on Wednesday entitled Doodoodoo: Improvisationan experimental project centered around the immediacy of creation.

Jazz, glitch music, drum and bass and soundscape come together on this disc released without warning. All collaborators at one time or another in their respective careers, the quartet of artists embarked on an album project that began with a thirty-minute drum solo by PE Beaudoin, accompanist of several Quebec artists. In the company of Alexandre Martel, Hubert Lenoir and the director Félix Petit, Beaudoin continued the work of improvisation, all the artists answered each other in music and ended up creating an exploded musical object.

Recorded in Tokyo, the musical moment gives the idea to the artists to mix the album chronologically, with the participation of Lou-Adriane Cassidy, who joined the project.

After losing the results of their sessions, and then being able to recover altered snippets of the recordings, the collective (called the Doodoodoo) used this new material to create the final result, the album Improvisation. The work is described as “a fresco bordering on expressionism, somewhere between the violence of metal and the ethereal side of new age, between jazz drums and hip hop breakbeats”.
