Lux by EZ3kiel is a 2014 double LP that offers a unique synthesis of electronic music and influences from the classical tradition. The French collective draws on soundscapes derived from movements like impressionism and minimalism; transparent orchestrations, subtle dynamics, and a sense of timbre define the palette.
The band blends electronic sounds and samples with acoustic instruments, giving the album a sound both layered and atmospheric.
The compositions effortlessly balance introspective melancholy and powerful lyricism. Lux strives for an experience reminiscent of the concertante character of classical suites and the cinematic quality of contemporary neoclassical music. The two-LP format reinforces the idea of a carefully constructed musical journey, centered on contrasts and captivating soundscapes.
In Lux, EZ3kiel combines the elegance of classical composition with modern production and sound design, making the album defying categorization. Influences from classical music are clearly audible in the melodic structures and harmonies, but the band also leaves room for improvisation and spontaneous twists that are characteristic of their hybrid approach. The result is an album that captivates both classical and electronic (post-rock) music enthusiasts and is considered an artistic highlight within EZ3kiel's oeuvre.
