*100 copies limited edition* Virginie Reid announces the release of Mille Soleils à l'oeil nu, a luminous new album that explores the delicate intersection of acoustic intimacy and boundless sonic imagination. Recorded with a keen ear for texture and a fearless commitment to improvisation, Mille Soleils à l'oeil nu invites listeners into a world where small gestures expand into vast, cinematic landscapes.
Mille Soleils à l'oeil nu traces a journey through light and shadow. Reid's compositions balance fragile, lyrical moments with cavernous drones and richly layered collages, creating an emotive arc that unfolds across the record. Each track is an act of conversation—between instruments, between silence and sound, between memory and invention—resulting in an album that is both immediate and deeply immersive.
Recorded over sessions that prioritized spontaneous interplay and attentive listening, Mille Soleils à l'oeil nu features contributions from longtime collaborators whose intuitive responses bolster Reid's vision. The ensemble's deep instrumental knowledge and openness to moment-to-moment change give the album its organic flow and textural depth.
