Sylvain Chauveau returns to 130701 with The Complexity Of The Simple, a focused set of minimalist compositions shaped by ideas of reduction, attentive listening and sustainability. Written between 2016 and 2025, the pieces extend Chauveau’s long-standing “quiet-core” approach, where small gestures and open space carry emotional and structural weight.

A visit to the Zen garden of Tokaian Temple in Kyoto proved formative, its stark lines and stillness echoing through the music. At the same time, Chauveau reflects on the material future of music, favouring acoustic instruments and compositions designed to exist without amplification or heavy technological infrastructure.

Elegant and restrained, The Complexity Of The Simple continues Chauveau’s distinctive exploration of minimal, contemplative sound.
