Hecq (2017) Chansons De Geste



The basic sources for the eleven haunting tracks were original tape recordings by Ben Lukas Boysen a.k.a. Hecq and his family members made decades ago for private use, ranging from piano etudes to classical works by composers like J.S. Bach and Johannes Brahms. Each tape was digitized to hard disc, loops and patches were extracted from this sound pool, and the collection was recorded on a reel-to-reel tape recorder. The tapes were taken and played back inside a church where the natural reverb of the location was added and used as the master recording.
