François Bonnet & Stephen O’Malley

CYLENE is a duo composed by François Bonnet, (Director of INA GRM & operating as Kassel Jaeger) and Stephen O’Malley (of SUNN O))), KTL). Long-term collaborators around editorial projects like Recollection GRM label & Spectre journal, Bonnet and O’Malley created CYLENE in summer 2018 as a commission from ATONAL festival at Kraftwerk in Berlin. Their first album was released on Editions Mego late spring 2019. The music of CYLENE suggest a world at the same time serene and anxious, evoking the calm before or after the storm, without excluding, from time to time, the storm itself.
