Tim Hecker, Kode9 and Ben Frost working on “Drone”, “Bass” and “Noise” perfumes
Unsound Festival have announced details of a new project called “Ephemera”, which will pair a host of electronic musicians with an avant-garde perfume-maker.
Tim Hecker, Kode9 and Ben Frost will soundtrack music to complement three scents called ”Drone”, “Bass” and “Noise”, made by Berlin perfumer Geza Schoen.
“Electronic music can be quite abstract, yet certain sounds can trigger crossovers to certain smells for me,” Schoen said of the venture.
An art installation featuring the music, scents and a visual accompaniment by Manuel Sepulveda and Marcel Weber will take place shortly, with “wearable” versions of the scents going on sale later this year.
