Mike Patton & Jean-Claude Vannier "Browning" | From the album 'Corpse Flower' (2019)
From last year's highly anticipated collaboration between Mike Patton and renowned Serge Gainsbourg composer and arranger Jean-Claude Vannier, 'Corpse Flower' was released by Ipecac Recordings on September 13, 2019.
“Jean-Claude and I met while working together on a Gainsbourg retrospective at the Hollywood Bowl in 2011,” explains Patton. “We bonded immediately. I could see he had a dedication and attention to detail that was relentless so the respect I had for him in my mind was magnified in person. We spoke loosely about working together in the future… and it took some time, but after a few years I contacted him and we began to ignite some sparks.” | (Mike Patton)
“I would send Mike rough versions of the songs to get his thoughts, then I’d wait impatiently, staring at the clock, until I received his response,” offers Vannier about the process the duo used to create Corpse Flower. “He made my music awaken with his unique perspective and interpretations of my songs. A formidable vocalist, with a sense of humor, Mike and I created a strong, beautiful and sincere collection of music, as well as a friendship.” | (Jean-Claude Vannier)
Recorded synchronously from opposite ends of the world, Patton at his home studio in San Francisco and in Los Angeles, and Vannier in his Paris studios. The results yielded the duo's debut collaboration, 'Corpse Flower'. A 12 track revelry from another realm, seductively solicits the listener to carouse in it's perverse delight. Transcending and otherworldly with a cinematic flair, a creation only possible from the minds of Mike Patton and Jean-Claude Vannier.
Along side Patton and Vannier, other musicians on the album include Smokey Hormel (Beck, Johnny Cash), Justin Meldal-Johnsen (Beck, Air, Nine Inch Nails) and James Gadson (Beck, Jamie Lidell). The Parisian players are Denys Lable, Bernard Paganotti (Magma), Daniel Ciampolini, Didier Malherbe, Léonard Le Cloarec and the Bécon Palace String Ensemble.
