Superposition is my first EP released on InFiné, and a defining moment in my evolution as an electronic artist under the alias Fraction. Released in the early 2010s, this project brought together many threads of my artistic journey—raw energy from my early rock background, a strong taste for experimentation, and a deep immersion in electronic sound design.
Before Fraction, I fronted the French band Mary Lake, and I’ve always carried that tension between visceral performance and conceptual construction into my solo work. Superposition reflects this dynamic. It channels influences from past collaborations—with artists like T.Raumschmiere and the Boston-based collective Order of the Artists (home to several John Zorn collaborators)—while asserting a sonic identity grounded in physicality, structure, and sensory friction.
The title track, Superposition, combines concrete textures, acid-toned synths, and a pounding rhythmic core. It’s both abstract and direct—merging dancefloor intensity with a more sculptural, almost cinematic dimension.
Other tracks like Inside the Neighbor’s Cat’s Head hint at a post-rock sensibility, intimate and introspective, while Requiem for a Unique Illusion brings a delicate balance of tension and harmonic beauty.
The B-side explores further dichotomies:
- Supermarket of Souls plays with frenetic pulses and glitchy provocations
- Wild, Blue and Dense slows the tempo for a more contemplative, ambient drift
From start to finish, Superposition is about contrast: structure and chaos, club energy and inner landscapes, form and fracture. It’s a manifesto in miniature—my first official step into a world where sound can move between genres, moods, and dimensions without compromise.
