Product Description
Sander Saarmets is an Estonian composer, sound designer and electronic musician exploring the edges of sound, place and memory. His works span solo and ensemble compositions, film, dance, radio, galleries and fashion, with appearances from Taiwan to France. His piece and the sky turned yellow was highlighted at the 69th International Rostrum of Composers. Saarmets also contributed to Regional_Express, part of the European Capital of Culture 2024. Past releases include albums as Muschraum and V4R1.
Bleu Précieux is a body of work that traces the contours of memory, movement and place. Composed entirely in meantone temperament for modular and hardware synthesizers, the album unfolds like an organism: branching, adapting, responding. Many of its processes emerge from generative systems rooted in the natural world, where structure and unpredictability coexist.
The album began with Signaux, a piece that translates real-time plant biofeedback into control voltage, allowing living organisms to shape melody and timbre. What begins as signal becomes emotion. The boundaries between composer, instrument and environment dissolve. Nature appears here as a collaborator, not as a backdrop.
These sounds carry traces of elsewhere: the sulphurous nights of Kipatauw, the hushed forests of the North, the Golden Mountain and hidden pathways, the Sleeping Giant and frozen lakes. Years spent crossing landscapes and languages have shaped this music into a living being.
The visual world of Bleu Précieux is rooted in 3D-scanned fragments of the Estonian forest, which form the basis of the
album’s design and the animated video for the title track. Each piece tells its story differently. In Unfold, photographs are reanimated into a dreamlike sequence of memory and return. Signaux captures close-ups of nature, light, texture and motion.
Together, these visual companions form a blend of techniques and impressions, a quiet archive of places lived through and dreams
carried forward.
Recorded between 2022 and 2025.
Carefully constructed. Quietly alive.
