Eliane Radigue - Echos_Engsubs This is "Eliane Radigue - Echos_Engsubs" by Eleonore Huisse on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.

In memory of Γ‰liane Radigue the makers of this documentary have made it free to view online. What a lovely gesture

Oh, it gets worse as they will charge per item in the package, not per package, so order 3 CDs and get charged €2.00 for each item. And so on...

Like many others it simply makes me want to stop completely to be honest

25.02.2026 12:45 πŸ‘ 2 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

and it's going to get even more confusing, as each country will have a different fee, and some have chosen to tax per item, whilst some per package. It's absolutely so self destructive!

Yet another nail in the coffin for @bandcamp.com sellers and others in the UK and elsewhere from next week, as France introduces a €2 Tax on every parcel, ahead of the forthcoming EU wide €3 fixed customs duty. Thanks Brexit again, we love you so much!

Her label and publisher shared this information this afternoon

Perhaps because it was simply a very popular song and thus available to millions. Who knows!

Farewell to French composer Γ‰liane Radigue (1932-2026) who taught us the radical power of slowness, of patience, and attention stretched to the threshold of perception. Her work will continue to resonateβ€”slowly, endlesslyβ€”like a tone that never quite fades.

Some rather rare footage of Portsmouth Sinfonia with Brian Eno from way back, live in concert. Music that certainly makes you smile πŸ˜€

This is one of the most revelatory and inspiring things I've heard recently - a reverse engineered version of Suzanne Vega's song 'Tom's Diner,' revealing all the sounds stripped out when encoded to an MP3.

as in their cheap copies and poor manners towards other folks at times, but nothing more sinister than that. Though, in all honestly, perhaps that's enough!

Wondering if she is any relation to the very controversial electronics music company?

I know exactly what you mean. There's usually always someone introduced into the conversation to negate any positivity but perhaps they couldn't find anyone grumpy enough at this late hour 😁

Also out next week is the second run of qd40 Scanner @scannerdot.com - Forces, Reactions, Deflections

This is an astonishing piece of work by a modern day master, very happy to make it available again. Already lots of interest so these won’t hang around..
