Le Temps Des Moissons Vol.2
Alternative mixes 1975 - 2018
This saxophone melody resonates in my memory… I have recorded many times or played live those notes and their variations. Here are some alternative mixes from very different periods.

Ended Thursday and welcomed Friday after a swim with Le Temps Des Moissons by Ariel Kalma, released on Astral Muse in 1975.

...the first solo recording LP from Ariel Kalma, recorded in 1975...

Ariel convinced the pressing engineer to loop the groove at the end of side 2 - thus creating an endless loop - and although it was casually mentioned on the cover, it caused surprises sometimes by sending listeners into trance. or on some occasions burning the motor of their turntable after endless hours!

Note from Ariel : Saxophone is powerful. It has raw sounds that are often filtered, polished for easier listening. I like to let my saxophone sing and when I play, I hear high-pitched, teasing sounds that I like so much. they titillate my senses. If it is too sharp for your ears, adjust your EQ till you are comfortable.

The Closest Thing to Silence by Ariel Kalma, Jeremiah Chiu, Marta Sofia Honer, released on International Anthem Recording Company in 2024.

In August 2022, Australia-based, French born fourth-world music legend Ariel Kalma was invited to participate in BBC Radio 3’s Late Junction series of special collaborations...

Kalma was quick to suggest working with two musicians whom he had never met – International Anthem recording artists Jeremiah Chiu & Marta Sofia Honer, whose critically-acclaimed duo debut 'Recordings from the Åland Islands' had been released just a few months earlier. An invitation was sent to Chiu and Honer, which was received with great enthusiasm, as Chiu had long been a fan of Kalma’s work, even citing him as a major influence on his approach to electronic music composition..
