Born out of a long-standing collaboration between four improvising musicians, Brique plays with construction and deconstruction like a post-punk Russian doll, toying with the codes of song format.

Shamelessly fusing multiple influences, from rap to romanticism, classical harmonies and lyrical flights to hammered lyrics, the accident is never far away, often throwing the writing into disarray.
The cut-up, the practice of collage in writing, gives the vocals a punchy character while the instruments are ready to pounce at any moment.

While each track has its own colour, the whole repertoire is united by the slightly overflowing energy and exaggerated expressionism of the performers.
