This album invites listeners to a unique auditory experience where music and environment intertwine seamlessly.

Inspired by the serene aesthetics of Japanese gardens and the avant-garde sounds of Edgard Varèse, Hervé's work embodies a profound engagement with the environment, both natural and constructed. Featuring the compositions Germination, an ensemble piece with electronics that transcends traditional performance spaces, and Topos, an immersive soundscape blending music with the sounds of an imagined natural environment. The album concludes with Au Dehors, a composition that evolves like nature itself. This album invites listeners to a unique auditory experience where music and environment intertwine seamlessly.
