Roméo Poirier is working in the field of electronic music, focusing on heavy processing of samples and digital collage. He released albums on the London based record label Kit Records (Plage Arrière), the mancunian record label Sferic (Hotel Nota), and Jan Jelinek’s own imprint Faitiche (Living Room), transforming the layering of different times into a free- flowing pulse that sounds both nostalgicand mysteriously ahistorical.

Roméo Poirier’s new album “Off The Record, to be released on Oct 10 on Faitiche, is an entertaining tour de force through the clandestine history of recording studios: 14 collages miniatures based on accidental recordings of studio conversations. —- « Love that, It’s kind of unusual, but it gets you somewhere » (Cillian Murphy, BBC radio) « This is ambient music that builds a new space for you to contemplate rather than soundtracking the physical space around you.» (Resident Advisor) «If you plot a line between Jon Hassell’s 'Dream Theory In Malaya' and Jan Jelinek’s 'Loop Finding Jazz Records', you’ll find this pearl lodged somewhere in between.» (Boomkat) «Smart for sure, but this is also very much human-touched electronica - glitch at its best! Solid gold home listening experience for the home listening generation.» (World of Echo) «Through the use of heavily textured soundscapes and intricate overdubbing, Poirier has managed to sculpt his own imaginary landscape in a state of continual transformation. A meditation that feels as ageless as the atmosphere it inhibits. FUTURE CLASSIC!» (All Night Flight)


Dialect is the solo project of British musician and composer Andrew PM Hunt. Embracing an intuitive, collage-like approach to sound, he assembles rich organic textures with evocative electro-acoustic environments, resulting in compositions that are both fragmented and deeply personal. Following a progression of concept-rich releases across almost a decade, Dialect marks a return to RVNG Intl. in 2024 with Atlas of Green, a work of speculative musical poetry melding a patchwork of scavenged relics and bygone hues through the shimmers of a mid-future in flux. Often inspired by literature as a way of organizing his musical impulses, Hunt is drawn to ideas around circular time, spirituality and ecology. His burgeoning interest in the fantasy writing of Ursula K. Le Guin and Gene Wolfe, as well as the work of Italian philosopher Federico Campagna, has fed into the ever-expanding mythologies and magic of Dialect’s sonic sphere. With his arrival at Atlas of Green in 2024, Dialect elegantly molds unexacting details of memory and mistranslation, as the album imagines a young musician named Green working in a future era, where lost signals and enduring impulses are unearthed from thesediments of technology and time.

Nurturing new gradients between improvisation and composition in his live show, Dialect navigates both the realms of narrative and pure sensation, grounding his material by prioritizing emotional depth and resonance. “I’m interested in achieving a balance of design and chance in my music, inspired by natural processes,”.

Previous appearances at Rewire, Making Time ∞ and a European tour supporting Yann Tiersen have been very well received.

He is also a member of acclaimed minimalist ensemble Ex-Easter Island Head (Rocket Recordings).
