C.ling consists of lifelong friends Paul Brunet and Alexandre Maillet, who originally met in their hometown of Bordeaux but are now based in Paris and Brussels. The pair’s audio approach was initially inspired by genres and sounds not typically present within Bordeaux’s local music scene, which led them to look beyond the periphery and digging deep into the continent’s extensive and sonically diverse electronic music network. This experimental, boundless framework and ethos, when paired with their classical background, led to the duo to toy with a variety of instrumentation and melting pots of sound, from which their rich musical universe has emerged. Combining hyper-kinetic sound design, thoughtful and delicate instrumentation, and a fluid, polyrhythmic layering approach, C.ling’s sound speaks to the senses via its immersive scenery and harmonic, pulsating undercurrent. Like the shiftings of sand or the gentleness of a breeze, their music is embellished with deeper meanings, one which murmur and shift through the drums, keys, guitar, violins, vocals, field recordings and more. It’s music that perceives uniquely, feeling its stylistic journey out through spaces of which some feel well trodden, whilst others are being walked through for the first time. Herein lies the magic at the heart of C.ling’s sound.
