Paris-born composer Emmanuel Mieville studied sound engineering in a film school and musique concrète at the GRM (Groupe de recherches musicales) with Philippe Mion and Jacques Lejeune.He has also studied ethnic instruments and played Javanese gamelan in Paris for two years. Since his childhood, Mieville has been constantly listening to creative radio programs, something that has fueled his approach to electroacoustic music and field recordings based composition. He has produced many programs for French national radios (France-Culture and France-Musiques), such as a piece commissioned by Radio-France for shakuhachi, voice and electronics. His interest in aural perception and memories engraved in urban and wildlife environments, yield compositions where field recordings are layered, mixed and sometimes manipulated with effects, out of context and yet strongly anchored to the memories of the location and events of the recording. His aim is to portray a specific location, to let its blurred sonic emotions reach the listener’s ears, to compose with “concrete” substance of sound for the listener’s pleasure. His music is released on the labels : Tibprod (Norway), XingWu(Malaysia) > Live concert with Eric Cordier. and/OAR(USA), Baskaru > 2 CDs (France), Cronica (Porugal), Taalem(Belgium).Digital album and forthcoming CD on Elektramusic (France), streaming now on all platforms (Itunes, etc).
