The CD Lo-Fi Apocrypha features a conceptual tragic-comic version of The Man I Love, Several Sad Saxophones and No Message to Leave, a confession to an electronic secretary.
La Jovenc’s music draws from the mid 20th century genius of Billie Holiday to contemporary genius of Bjork. The mix of influences ranges from Stockhausen, Gorecki, Ligeti and Britten to Eno, Scott and Reich and extends to Hendrix, Matmos and Mingus.
But not only musical influences. Literature, paintings, colours, perfume and life experience have all shaped the musical output.
Experimental, electronic, sometimes jazzy, sometimes concrete but always warm ritual and apocryphal.
