Étude sur l’ombre began as an exploration of those sounds from the electric guitar that are in the background of what would be consider “music”. As a declaration of intent, it begins by making musical the sound of the amplifier.

From there. it will develop to other stages which, in a veiled manner, echoe music genres in which the electric guitar is preponderant such as post-rock or noise.
