MEMORY SCALE
CHAPTER FIVE
“The result is an album that oscillates between lush density and contemplative minimalism. It invites introspection, occasionally laced with moments of quiet euphoria.” - Chain D.L.K.
"It’s a classy, cerebral but emotionally drawn experience that borders on the filmic, the magical, more reflective and near haunted. A truly immersive experience." - Monolith Cocktail
"French artist Arnaud Castagné, with his fifth album, takes us on a journey to the edges of time—back to an era when the fusion of electronic and acoustic elements had yet to establish itself as a new language, and the acoustic component still resonated fearlessly." - Rockerilla
AND ALL THE THINGS BEGIN TO DRIFT
"Memory Scale, the project of Bordeaux's Arnaud Castagné, operates in a sort of liminal, magical realism space. [...] A remarkable and beautifully haunting collection." - Electronic Sound issue #104
"It offers brief handfuls of sonic “oenotherapy,” barely hinted at, coupled with intimate, unexpected, solitary, and captivating psychedelia. A delightful album." - Mirco Salvadori, Rockerilla
"More to the point is that the mood and near-surgical attention to detail mean that the organic unity of each track feels effortless, free of posturing or browbeating intention." - Musique Machine
"And All Things Begin To Drift takes the listener on a captivating sonic journey. Delicate melodies blend harmoniously with atmospheric textures, creating an immersive experience where the boundaries between the conscious and unconscious blur. " - Solenopole
SOFT POWER
BandcampStreamingLimited Edition CD
"A spellbinding, all encompassing, and organic collection of tranquilized audio miniatures capturing the essence of microtones and abstract ambient projections. A tangibly cinematic aural universe." - Igloo Electronic Music Magazine / Best Album of 2021 Selection
"Soft Power is the reflection of a microscopic world teeming with scattered events and poetic swings, a mirror effect of stories buried in the depths of a memory with erased scars, a fantastic epic freed from all form of weightlessness. Magical." - Silence and Sound
