Yann Tiersen’s new album, 11 5 18 2 5 18, was born from experimentation in the studio ahead of a performance by Tiersen at Berlin’s modular and synthesiser festival, Superbooth. With more time than usual to prepare for his live set, he found himself in his Eskal Studio on Ushant, France, completing the story he started with 2021’s Kerber - which presented a beautifully textured and highly immersive electronic world.
