Bruits on empreintes DIGITALes Yves Daoust exemplifies that empreintes DIGITALes spirit where the entire sonic history of mankind can find residence in the incredibly evocative sound pockets of human-manipulated soundscape documents. The pieces are ripe and bursting with exuberance. Yves Daoust is head of the electroacoustic program at the Conservatoire de Musique de Montréal. This is his 3rd empreintes DIGITALes release. The title piece which is bursting with the schizoidal din of urban mindscapes is “a postcard, a sonic portrait of a landscape dear to Daoust - Montréal.”

The pieces are ripe and bursting with exuberance.
