https://edition-s.dk/composers/loic-destremau:
– “With expressive music that explores philosophical questions through sophisticated craftsmanship, Loïc Destremau is one of the most interesting composers of his generation in Denmark.”
– “A hallmark of his aesthetic is the elegant integration of backing tracks and instrumental sounds.”
– “Destremaus’ music offers complex interpretations of the hypotheses he explores – from the affirmative to the ridiculous. Always with an unerring sense for interesting, previously unheard sounds. With technical precision, he combines diverse instruments into an eclectic aesthetic that opens the listener’s ears and mind.”

“Yes!« tænker jeg, mens jeg sidder og doomscroller mig gennem Loïc Destremaus værker […] hans indspilninger og videoer viser et sjældent talent for at blande teknologi, elektronik og akustiske instrumenter.”
“[…] hans værker sætter tanker i gang. Der er alle mulige perspektiver på verden: filosofi, antropologi, politik, historie, biologi, fysik … en hvirvelvind af lag, som får musikken til at kaste kroge ud i samfundet, gør den opmærksom på den tid, vi lever i.”

– “Loïc Destremaus Saxocloned for, ja gæt selv, går klangligt til værks, en klagende saxofonsirene med klapren og overtoner, der udvikler sig til en ret charmerende leg mellem fjerne ekkoer og nære pusterier med sin selvkloning.”

– “Loïc Destremau’s Faulty Waterwork, executed by Heigo Rosin, was a beautiful play with miked water, lit candles and a small tape recorder dipped into the water – a reference to Händel’s Water Music as well as John Cage’s classical Water Walk.”
