Les Marquises
Founded in 2019 by Emilie Škrijelj (french accordion & turntable player) and Tom Malmendier (belgian drummer), the duo Les Marquises is dedicated to experimental and freely improvised music. This duo with an exciting line-up makes music that is as high-energy as it is delicate and opens up a variety of sound spaces with fascinating, shimmering colors. With a great sense of timing, Les Marquises juggle with field recordings or white noise and fully exploit the potential of their instruments, while creating countless nuanced electroacoustic storms. They collaborates in several trios with Mike Ladd, Michael Thieke or recently Otomo Yoshihide.
Les Marquises played 70 concerts all over Europe and in Canada, in many festivals like : Copenhaguen Jazz Festival (DK) / Meteo Music Festival (Fr) / Konfrontationen Festival (AT) / Switch Festival (Fr) / MOZG Festival (PL) / FIMAV (CA) / Sons d'hiver (Fr) / Music Unlimited (FR).
Tom Malmendier is mostly self-taught, he is from the very beginning interested in the sound, more than in the pure technique of the instrument, or the goal of "being a drummer". Improvisation became a great part of his playing. He made workshops with Chris Corsano, Sophie Agnel, Mats Gustaffson, Okkyung Lee and Edward Perraud. He works on transdisciplinary projects and meets actors, dancers, visual artists, poets, jugglers. Actively performs on stages in Europe, has participated in internationally renowned festivals such as Festival Météo (Mulhouse), Suoni Per il Popolo (Montreal), Jazz à Liège (Liège), Summer Bummer (Antwerp), Creative Fest ( Lisbon), Dunk! Festival (Aalst). Tom Malmendier plays with Thisquietarmy, Rodrigo Pinheiro, Dirk Series, Dieb13, Luis Vicente, Sophie Agnel, Jean-Sébastien Mariage, Hanne de Bakker, Fred Frith, Franz Hautzinger, ErikM, Christine Abdelnour, Ignaz Schick, Mike Ladd, Michael Thieke, Otomo Yoshihide ...
Emilie Škrijelj explores the accordion in its smallest folds and uses it both as a percussion instrument and a generator of electroacoustic materials. Inspired by her research around the turntable, modular synths and field recording, she brings the accordion to the abstract territory of electronics by manipulating the bellows, rubbing its contours and exploring its extremities. Emilie Škrijelj plays with Lê Quan Ninh, Michel Doneda, Christine Abdelnour, Isabelle Duthoit, Dieb13, Gunda Gottschalk, Christian Pruvost, Paul Rogers, Xavier Charles, Mike Ladd, Biliana Voutchkova, Michael Thieke, Otomo Yoshihide...
