Presenting the debut EP from Le Comte Champêtre; ‘Ephemerides’ is a journey representing the characteristics of seasons. The EP starts with ‘Iarnă’ to signify the winter, taking inspiration from Romanian communist music. ‘Por El Rio Va’ is inspired by Gamelean Indonesian music, & takes place between winter & spring to represent the melting of ice running down the mountains. The jazzy tones of ‘Vorvakning’ symbolise the jubilance of natural renewal with upbeat concepts, while the warmer Balkan/Middle Eastern tones of Alsayf take us into the summer heat. The EP closes with Hovvi Mazurkan which returns the saudade of shortening days in Autumn, utilising a 7/4 edition of a mazurka groove, settling the album back to the origins of its cycle.
