ʟᴇ ᴄ​ᴀ​ᴅ​ᴇ​ᴀ​ᴜ by Saint Elisabeth + Séraphitüs-Séraphîta

ʟᴇ ᴄ​​​ᴀ​​​ᴅ​​​ᴇ​​​ᴀ​​​ᴜ consists of eight textural noise compositions presented by Saint Elisabeth and Séraphitüs-Séraphîta in an alternating format. Each “rumination” pays homage to Man Ray's first Dada object in France: Le Cadeau (The Gift), 1921.

We suggest reflecting on the image of "Le Cadeau" as you listen to this album. And while pondering its meaning, (or lack thereof,) consider this quote:

"𝘖𝘣𝘫𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘴 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘰𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦. 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮, 𝘱𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘪𝘯 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘢𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮: 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘧𝘶𝘭, 𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦. 𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘵𝘰𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘮𝘦, 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘶𝘯𝘣𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦.
