Et Sans is the project of Alexandre St-Onge and Roger
Tellier-Craig of the bands Godspeed You Black Emperor! and Fly
Pan Am, respectively. This is a very minimalist project that in
places captures the familiar lo-fi essence of Godspeed You
Black Emperor! and Fly Pan Am, while at the same capturing an
aesthetic that is familiar in both the Chicago post-rock sound
and Tortoise, specifically, but this is really only true in
timbre, as their spacey and droning sound is quite organic and
in places seems to reference a bit of sonic avant-garde of the
'60s. Et Sans' L'Autre is a superb recording and one that
really speaks a language of its own sonic vocabulary. The sound
of droning electronics is subtly counterpointed by a barely
audible bass guitar or perhaps baritone guitar motif that
resonates throughout the fabric of this single-movement,
long-form piece. The piece, overall, unfolds very slowly and
breathes life with each passing note. Those who are familiar
with the quieter offerings of post-rock will certainly enjoy
this, but there's a bit of a Kranky Records feel to this
recording, α la Windy and Carl and perhaps Fontanelle. All and
all this is an excellent recording and one that certainly has
its own language. Highly recommended.
