Novocibirsk – The Vasalery Project (Album Digital/CD/Vinyl – BOREDOMproduct)
French “sound architect” Hervé Isar first released this album in 1997 as a tribute to Hungarian artist Victor Vasarely. In this work, Isar ingeniously translated Vasarely’s vibrant colors into sounds, creating an auditory ode to the artist. Notably, 1997 was also the year Vasarely passed away. The album has since been remastered and polished, and it’s remarkable how these analog sounds, despite their age, continue to feel fresh and innovative. The music is experimental yet accessible, with its slow rhythms and refined, astral tones and bleeps. Above all, this album is an intelligent and sophisticated creation that was far ahead of its time and perhaps resonates even more strongly today. In my view, it’s a masterful piece of work. (Rate:8½).

Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
