Accident Du Travail - Galejade

Accident Du Travail is a duo formed in the late 2000s by Olivier Demeaux (ex-Cheveu, Heimat) and Julie Normal. Their electronic music, fragile and ecstatic, is born from rare instruments: Julie's ondes Martenot - a prototype synthesizer from the 1920s beloved by Messiaen, Varese and Boulez - and Olivier's old church harmonium, all spiced up with a few machines. Accident Du Travail has recorded three studio albums (Bruit Direct, The Trilogy Tapes), and two live performances (including one at Cafe Oto), celebrated in The Wire and Libération among others.Galéjade is an archive of recordings, made by ADT between 2009 and today. Julie and Olivier have unearthed from their hard drives demos, live recordings, a live soundtrack for a screening (Claire, by Milford Thomas) and otherunreleased rarities.
