Night Blossoms by Clementine Blue

‘Night blossoms’ is the result of experiments using an omnichord and digisound 80 modular synthesiser - a vintage synthesiser you could build from a magazine subscription. Using effect pedals, a tape recorder, sequencers and patches, I’ve been exploring a grainy Landscape where flowers and vegetables grow under the moonlight.
Night Blossoms comes with a mini art book of nighttime analogue photography.
I was at home in France a lot last year, as one of my parents was really ill. At the time I was feeling very confused and sad, but during the month of March, with the winter finally coming to an end, I was looking at all the plum, apple and pear blossoms in the garden, like a sign that everything was going to be okay. I decided to spend some time at dusk and night trying to capture these flowers in the dark, like a glimpse of hope. I knew things were going to be okay.
The visuals and the music - although created at different times - reflect the feelings of haziness, the longing for soothing melodies, daydreaming, slight confusion and the relief of seeing a little light in the darkness.

Clementine Blue is a French-born music maker and multimedia artist based in Margate, UK. Blue uses analogue synths, field recordings and sonic textures in an experimental way to explore our relationship with the natural landscape.
