Archive Officielle is one of my favorite labels and I’m pleased to bring you a great mix from it’s founder S. Mercure. If you’re not familiar with AO take minute to check it out. Every release is excellent and the package design is a cut above. And right now you can get the entire AO discography on Bandcamp for 40% off.
S. Mercure is a multi-disciplinary artist working primarily in the field of sound and installation. Although his initial releases under the pseudonym Persona Mercure show a rather classical musicality, his recent work is developed using a conceptual approach and controlled by rigid constraints. Published on various international labels, he is also the founder and curator of Archive Officielle, a multidisciplinary platform and physical archive who’s mission is to publish, document and archive conceptual work from international artists.
