Recorded at Studio L'Artscene, near Lyon, France, by Adrian Bourget.
"Marked by primitive rhythms and sensations as much as by rich and complex sounds, the music of Vegan Dallas simultaneously evokes both distant imaginary sonorities and the urban universe around the Parisian peripherique. Convulsively constructed on a unique instrumentarium, Vegan Dallas' live set reveals the powerful life force embedded within each individual. The sounds penetrate the bodily organs, imprinting their rhythms on our cells, liberating our energy."-Nunc.

• Show Bio for Julien Chamla "Throughout hundreds of performances all around Europe on the experimental, improvised music and alternative rock scenes, Julien Chamla developed a unique vocabulary focused on tension, roughness and repetition. Eager to unlearn and to strip down the musical matter, his work is now mainly connected to primitive, trance and ritualistic music. Amongst others, he's involved in the bands Tripes, Helved Rüm, Ritual Extra, Aquaserge, and many dance and circus projects." ^ Hide Bio for Julien Chamla • Show Bio for Richard Comte "Richard Comte is focused on the sonic possibilities of the guitar, drawing timeless spaces, from loud immersive drones to spacious resonances bordering on silence itself. He played with improvisers Simon H. Fell, Mark Sanders, Shabaka Hutchings, Mars Williams, Jim Black, and he interpreted contemporary music pieces from Michael Pissaro, Eliane Radigue, Fausto Romitelli. He works also in the field of contemporary dance, theater and visual arts. In 2017 he founded Nunc., a label dedicated to liberate and open music." ^ Hide Bio for Richard Comte • Show Bio for Benjamin Flament "Benjamin Flament is a vibraphonist and a percussionist who works with electricity, electronics and metal instruments - all built by himself. In 2005 he met bass player Joachim Florent, and began a prolific collaboration which resulted in the bands RADIATION10, MeTaL-O-PHoNe ("12 points" laureate) and White Light 4tet. In 2011, Flament founded We Are All Americans Quartet with Hasse Poulsen and a new duo with Clément Janinet (violin). He is the co-founder of the French collective and label Coax with Julien Desprez and also performs with Sylvain Rifflet, ONJ Franck Tortiller, Han Bennink, Michel Portal." ^ Hide Bio for Benjamin Flament • Show Bio for Simon Henocq "After studying electroacoustic composition, Simon Henocq turned to live electronic, parallel to the guitar that he practiced since adolescence. He played with the duo Helved Rüm (with Julien Chamla), with the group Vegan Dallas (with Benjamin Flament, Richard Comte, Julien Chamla, Julie Lardrot). He plays guitar in the Coax Orchestra (directed by Yann Joussein) and transmedia project " Naufrage de la jellyfish" (with Jacques Di Donato, Isabelle Duthoit, Nicolas Nageotte, Lionel Guibout) ...
