Info for Sources inconnues

Where does music come from?
When does it begin?
Does it exist outside of the human world?
Can we touch it?
Does it keep on resonating after death?
When does one become a composer?

“Sources inconnues was born from these (non-exhaustive) questions. A piece from Jean-Yves Labat de Rossi’s album En Voyage —musician known as Mr. Frog and cofounder of the Ad Vitam records label— lent its name to this musical recollection. Is this yet another concept album gathering random pieces that have nothing to do with each other merely adorned with a clever, enigmatic title and a misleading premise, all in an attempt to dress itself up in pseudo-intellectualism and wrap the whole thing in a trendy, marketable theme? Reader, listener, trust me. If I had any kind of marketing plan, I’d have recorded Beethoven’s last 3 sonatas or Chopin’s Four ballads instead of starting out with a monograph dedicated to Moondog and following that up with Alan Hovhaness, Philip Glass, Erik Satie and Keith Jarrett. All these pieces have been chosen to try to answer the opening questions of this booklet. From which “unknown sources” does a sound emerge? How does it become music that we play, listen to and pass on? Welcome to this gallery of unprecedented, utopian, and thought-provoking musical phenomena. This collection of iconoclasts is the result of aesthetic encounters, impromptu conversations, lucky discoveries, and unusual passions. Join in on a journey through introspection, intrigue, and raw emotion.” (François Mardirossian)
