Sonnet with Benoit Pioulard - An Interview



Existem determinadas situações que adjetivos ou maiores explicações tornam-se completamente desnecessárias, quanto mais se tenta analisar, explicar através de palavras algo que se faz necessário ouvir e sentir, torna-se completamente inútil.

Benoit Pioulard ou Thomas Meluch é já bem conhecido para os iniciados do submundo dos bons sons, quatro álbuns pela fundamental Kranky Records, e recém lançou Sonnet em Março e já em Abril outro álbum, Stanza.

Aqui cabe apenas um conselho, fechar os olhos apagar as luzes, e se entreter com música, benoit Pioulard é acima.
