NANOKOSMOS: AN AUDIOVISUAL LIVE PERFORMANCE

08/12/2022

Coming to you live in high fidelity sound and vision


We played around with the idea of visuals for a long time. Nathan was really tripping on microscopic images like cells of living organisms, rocks, crystals and other mystic micro stuff. We started persuing images by contacting biologists and geologists and it became an ideal playground for inspiring new music.


We were also interested in magnifying sounds that would normally not be heard or used in a typical Black Flower set - intimate sounds of breath, mechanics of a saxophone, skin of drum,...

It all seemed to fit when film maker and visual composer Nele Fack told us she was game to realise these ideas on a concert stage.

VIDEOCLIP MORNING IN THE JUNGLE

Single Morning In The Jungle (feat. Meskerem Mees)

04/01/2022

Black Flower's very first vocal track is now out on limited 7 inch.

The wonderfully limbid MITJ, sees Afro-Belgian singer songwriter Meskerem Mees reciting a bucolic nursery rhyme over a gently pulsating organ that sounds like the steady, sweaty drop of mist in a rainforest. - Uncut Magazine (UK)
