La Casa, Eric / Francisco Lopez: Collection Supranaturelle: Induction / Mutation [2 CDs] (Swarming)

Beginning with recordings of an electric induction cooktop made in his kitchen, French sound artist Éric La Casa constructs an electroacoustic work from improvisations and environmental sounds, which Spanish composer Francisco López then transforms into a dense studio mutation, the two discs tracing a dialogue of listening, transformation, and immersive sonic textures drawn from everyday objects and resonant spaces.
