A work that literally immerses the listener into an acoustical substance. The sound becomes almost like matter, like jelly. Soon, you're swimming in
sound, getting lost inside it.

Sonic Waters
With the Sonic Waters project initiated in 1978, my aim was to situate
field of electronic music within a liberating and futuristic experience,
outside the concert halls and in sync with the development of new
instruments - in particular the Synclavier digital synthesizer, the first
model of which I acquired in 1977. As concert space, the Pacific Ocean
seemed to me to be the ideal experimental medium for both acoustic
and cultural reasons. I then developed the aesthetic and technical
elements that would contribute to the conception of Underwater Music.
Numerous performances would follow spanning four decades, in
natural sites or in large public pools such as those of Sydney, Paris
or Venice during the 2006 Biennale.
I've divided this album into 2 fields:
Sonic Waters: Music for Fresh Water (1981)
Sonic Waters: Music for Salt Water (1979-1987)

Michel Redolfi (1951)
French composer and sound artist, is the
founder of Underwater Music. The natural elements captured and
highlighted by experimental technology are a constant in Redolfi's
catalogue: many compositions explore the earth environments such as in ‘Pacific Tubular Waves’, ‘Jungles’, ‘Desert Tracks’ (re-released on
Sub Rosa records) and especially with ‘Sonic Waters’, a work that
literally immerses the listener into an acoustical substance. During the mid-seventies Redolfi carried out his electro-acoustic research in the United States, with major electronic music centers including the California Institute of the Arts and chiefly the University of California in San Diego. As invited resident of their studios, Michel Redolfi launched the underwater music concerts, with the series ‘Sonic Waters’ performed in the Pacific Ocean. Michel Redolfi's underwater creations have since been regularly programmed by major international festivals, with multi-media installations held in ecological marine reserves or in historical city pools. Among them, the Sydney Festival, Paris ‘Nuit Blanche’, Ars Electronica in Linz, the 2006 Venice Biennale (nominated Golden Lion) and lately the 2018 Ars Musica festival in Brussels. This record presents different variations of Sonic Waters from 1980 to 1987, alternating studio mixes with their re-recordings in the depths of the Pacific. Michel Redolfi CD’s and LP’s are currently published by Sub Rosa, INA-GRM and Radio France.
