"C’est quoi ton monde à toi ? Ton monde idéal je veux dire. Le mien est là, derrière un océan qui se franchit, qui se déverse. Debout. J’emprunte les chemins de traverses, je me laisse pénétrer par le paysage. Oui, comme ça. Entrer en contemplation. Et là s’ouvriront les portes du monde, du mien. Tu franchiras un mur de son, un orage qui ravivera tes visions du Déluge. Un rideau lacustre qui ira jusqu’à pourrir tes os. Mais l’itinéraire est tracé. Je ne sais pas s’il y a un retour. Ce n’est pas si marécageux. Viens ! Le Monde parait plus calme ici… L’aventure ouvrira des portes, fera que les ciels se remplacent. C’est toi le lien entre le ciel et la terre, une liane d’eau violente et faste : Tsunami from Heaven. Mars 2020, les ciels s’assombrissent alors. Les portes se ferment. La lumière, néanmoins éclaire toujours les pinceaux, les tables, les guitares, les machines. Sébastien Bédrunes, Sébastien Janjou se retrouvent : c’est le lien du bruit, la résonnance. Dix années à travailler, écouter, jouer, fabriquer et produire du son, se croiser souvent pour faire ensemble. Des tournées, des concerts, des univers : de la musique somme toute. En France ou dans le monde. Mars 2020, Sébastien Bédrunes et Sébastien Janjou habillent l’invisible à distance : la même fréquence. Ils bâtissent, imaginent un paysage Post-Rock. L’aventure est Ambient et la nature est primitive, foisonnante, grinçante. Tsunami from Heaven incarne l’expérimentation. Le mur du son, oui. Mais celui qui laisse voyager la lumière."

"What's your world like? Your ideal world, I mean. Mine is there, behind an ocean that crosses, that spills. I stand up. I take the side roads, I let myself be penetrated by the landscape. Yes, like that. To enter in contemplation. And there will open the doors of the world, of mine. You will cross a wall of sound, a storm that will revive your visions of the Flood. A lake curtain that will go so far as to rot your bones. But the route is set. I don't know if there is a way back. It's not so swampy. Come on! The world seems calmer here... The adventure will open doors, will make the skies replace each other. You are the link between the sky and the earth, a vine of violent water: Tsunami from Heaven. March 2020, the skies darken then. The doors close. The light, however, still illuminates the brushes, the tables, the guitars, the machines. Sébastien Bédrunes, Sébastien Janjou meet again: it is the link of the noise, the resonance. Ten years of working, listening, playing, making and producing sound, often crossing paths to make together. Tours, concerts, universes: music after all. in France or in the world. March 2020, Sébastien Bédrunes and Sébastien Janjou dress the invisible at a distance: the same frequency. They build, imagine a Post-Rock landscape. The adventure is Ambient and the nature is primitive, abundant, grating. Tsunami from Heaven embodies experimentation. The wall of sound, yes. But the one that lets the light travel."
