Official press release:
Prosthetic Records has announced the signing of Parisian instrumentalist duo, WuW. The group is the creative outpouring of two brothers, Benjamin and Guillaume Colin, both classically trained percussionists and veterans of the Paris music scene. Having played in jazz ensembles, classical contemporary orchestras, world-music troupes and alongside traditional Middle Eastern musicians – this striving for challenging playing and evocative musical atmospheres all enriched the vast sound-collage that became WuW.
WuW is the sound wind makes when it blows on a hot night, it is a low-end murmur that grabs you by the guts, a blast of air rushing through the mountains and the oceans. Rien Ne Nous Sera Épargné is the cascading, debut instrumental debut from this Parisian duo, it’s a dark and heavy progressive soundtrack for appreciators of Magma, King Crimson, and Godspeed! You Black Emperor. A sample of the album can be heard here:
