Back in 2024, La Grande Accumulation, the acclaimed first collaboration between Turkish sound artist and photographer Anadol (Gözen Atila) and French composer, musician and singer Marie Klock was compared with everything from folk to French chansons and even Krautrock, but what everyone agreed on was its eccentricity. On Manivelles that eccentricity persists, but the album feels less of a complete statement and more like a bunch of oddities and fragments, a collection of pebbles gathered on the seashore for their strange and evocative shapes. That difference might be ascribed to the very different ways the two albums came together. La Grande Accumulation was the fruition of a thrilling first encounter, an unexpected meeting of minds and talents.
