In this instance, we travel to the island of Ouessant, a discreet and remote island in northeasterly France, with a population of less than a thousand. 

Revered composer Yann Tiersen – revered for his Amelie soundtrack – and his wife relocated here several years ago, where, in his home studio, Tiersen’s interplay between electronic and acoustic textures is allowed to run wild. 

Across an hour, we physically and emotionally travel around the island, set to the chilling and beautiful ambience of Yann’s enveloping soundtrack. Synth oscillations, frantic strings, haunting grand pianos are the bed to waves crashing against rocks, dilapidated churches, empty market squares and epic scenic views.
