HISTORY

The Origin

  Rock in Opposition or "RIO" was a movement representing a collective of "progressive" bands in the late 1970s united in their opposition to the music industry that refused to recognise their music. It was initiated by Henry Cow in March 1978 when they invited four European groups to come to London and perform in a festival called "Rock in Opposition".
  The groups that performed in the inaugural event were: Henry Cow (UK), Stormy Six (Italy), Samla Mammas Manna (Sweden), Univers Zéro (Belgium) and Etron Fou Leloublan (France). After the festival, RIO was formalised as an organisation with a charter whose aim was to represent and promote its members. Three more bands were also added to the collective: Art Bears (UK), Art Zoyd (France) and Aksak Maboul (Belgium), and further festivals were held later in France, Italy and Sweden. Chris Cutler of Henry Cow established the ReR (Recommended Records) label in the UK, as a model for a non-profit music company.
  RIO as a movement did not last long, but its legacy still persists. While RIO never referred to a type of music (the original RIO bands were quite diverse musically), it is still often used by listeners, musicians, and distributors to classify bands (generally bands that appeared at the RIO festivals or bands related to or derived from the RIO bands). Bands familiarized with the RIO movement and genre today include: Thinking Plague (USA), Present (Belgium), Miriodor (Canada), Ahvak (Israel), Neblenest (France), 5uu's (USA), Guapo (UK) and U Totem (USA).
  The term "RIO" today is almost synonymous with Avant-progressive rock or Experimental Rock.

Rock In Opposition France Event 2007

During an encounter in Brussels in December 2005, Michel Besset and Roger Trigaux discussed their common desire to initiate in France - and everywhere in the world, since that fight is of an interplanetary kind! - new dynamics around those musical forms that have thrilled them since the early 70's. For Roger, this desire is linked to the permanent commitment of a musician who always refused to compromise or to "adapt" his music to the mainstream taste of non-demanding audiences, and who always had to cope with the obstacles generated by such a radical approach. For Michel, this is the willingness to come back to these musical streams that have shaped the identity of "Transparence", the association he founded in 1974, back in a period of deep musical innovation, when truly committed artists gave birth to numerous passionated initiatives that were often risky and far off the beaten tracks of commercial production. In the meantime, both Michel and Roger have witnessed a worldwide flourishment of music Festivals dedicated to so-called "progressive" musical forms, but in fact mostly presenting artists who are redundantly recycling the recipes of the same old cult-bands.

Something had to be done...

The birth of that new musical event is in continuity with gigs that have been promoted for the last three decades by the association "Transparences" in Carmaux, Albi and other locations in Southern France (with such artists as Henry Cow, Art Zoyd, Léo Ferré, Univers Zero, Magma, Nucleus, Contrepoint, Present...).

This event illustrates how this association has always been a committed partner to the most UNCOMPROMISING artists, AGAINST a commercial system that forces them to adapt their creativity to a demand created by the system itself and IN OPPOSITION to a system that seems to be inescapable and self-consuming.

The idea is not to hide in the past.

Back in the 70's, artists had to fight to promote these so-called "radical" musical forms, and it's getting even more difficult nowadays. Just because that music is demanding - not that it requires an effort from the audience, but only because it appeals to his curiosity and his longing for new perspectives. The complex language, the emotion and the depth, the real collective work that characterize musicians who dedicated themselves to that music, made their way through several decades and finally reached the new generations, tired of hearing cheap discourses and mainstream merchandised music.

In France, one band epitomizes that fight: Magma, whose lasting musical influence has become more and more obvious as years have passed. But outside France as well, such artists as Robert Wyatt, Soft Machine, Miles Davis and Jimi Hendrix have been important symbols for a whole generation.

Sometimes the music reaches its targ... when it has one!

Sometimes the music reaches its target… when it has one! Those musicians opened our minds and gave us enough strength to pursue that struggle, for ourselves, for the music and for the human condition in general. After more than three decades, we now realise how crucial that issue can be. After having experienced other forms of music, we are now able to understand the significance of the music we defend today.

HISTORIQUE

L’origine

  Rock In Opposition ou "RIO" est à l'origine un collectif de groupes Rock "progressifs" (à l’époque ce terme avait un sens), qui vers la fin des années 70, avait en commun leur opposition à l'industrie musicale qui refusait de reconnaître et de publier leurs musiques. RIO a été créé par Henry Cow en mars 1978. Ils invitèrent quatre groupes européens à venir à Londres pour un festival intitulé "Rock In Opposition".
  Ces groupes étaient: Henry Cow (UK), Stormy Six (Italie), Samla Mammas Manna (Suède), Univers Zéro (Belgique) et Etron Fou Leloublan (France).
Après le festival, RIO devint une une véritable organisation qui se chargea de représenter et de promouvoir ces membres.. Trois autres groupes rentrèrent dans le collectif: Art Bears (UK), Art Zoyd (France) et Aksak Maboul (Belgique).
  Plusieurs festivals RIO eurent lieu ensuite en France, Italie et Suède.
Chris Cutler d’ Henry Cow fonda alors le label ReR (Recommended Records) comme un modèle de compagnie de disque sans but lucratif.
  RIO en tant qu'association n'existe plus, mais l'esprit de cette démarche s'est imposée. Si RIO n'a jamais eu comme critère les "styles de musique", le terme RIO est souvent utilisé par le public, la presse et les distributeurs pour classifier certains groupes. Aujourd'hui, et parce qu'il est difficile de donner un nom à leurs musique, certains groupes se voient "étiquettés" RIO. Citons entre autre: Thinking Plague (USA), Present (Belgique), Miriodor (Canada), Ahvak (Israel), Neblenest (France), 5uu's (USA), Guapo (UK) et U Totem (USA).
  L'appelation RIO est maintenant synonyme d' "Avant-Progressive Rock" ou d’ "Experimental Rock".

Rock In Opposition France Event 2007

Lors d'une rencontre à Bruxelles en décembre 2005, Michel Besset et Roger Trigaux évoquent ensemble leur envie commune d’insuffler, en France, et ailleurs dans le monde, le combat étant interplanétaire, une nouvelle dynamique autour de ces musiques qui les passionnent depuis les années 70. Pour l’un (Roger), c’est l’engagement permanent d’un musicien refusant de "se vendre" ou d’ "adapter" sa musique aux "goûts" de publics, souvent peu exigeants, tout en assumant toutes les difficultés qui en découlent, qui provoque ce désir. Pour l’autre (Michel), c’est la volonté de "revenir" à des courants musicaux qui ont façonné l’identité de l’association "Transparence" qu’il a fondé en 1974. Période qui, pour lui, était porteuse d’un esprit musical particulier et d’un véritable engagement des artistes qui firent naître de nombreuses initiatives passionnées, comportant de véritables prises de risque car hors normes et donc hors des circuits commerciaux. De plus, Michel et Roger assistaient depuis plusieurs années à la multiplication dans le monde entier de Festivals de musiques dites "progressives" qui n’en ont que le nom, la plupart (pas tous heureusement) des artistes s’y produisant ne présentant en fait que de pâles copies d’anciens groupes cultes.

Il fallait présenter autre chose...

La naissance de cet événement est donc le prolongement des concerts développés depuis des décennies par l’association "Transparence" à Carmaux et Albi dans le sud de la France (Henry Cow, Art Zoyd, Léo Ferré, Univers Zero, Magma, Nucleus, Contrepoint, Present...).

Il est l’illustration de l’engagement de cette association aux côtés d’artistes décidés à faire de la musique SANS concessions, CONTRE un système commercial qui les réduit à vendre des produits propres à satisfaire une demande générée par le système lui-même. Et dans lequel beaucoup d’artistes sont aspirés malgré (???) eux. EN OPPOSITION à un système qui semble inéluctable mais qui se dévore lui même.

Il ne s’agit pas de se réfugier dans le passé.

Dans les années 70, il fallait se battre, et actuellement c'est encore pire, pour diffuser ces musiques jugées parfois difficiles d’accès. Simplement parce qu’elles demandent, non pas un effort de la part de l’auditeur, déjà flatté par des musiques de loisir, bêtifiantes, superficielles, mais simplement de la curiosité pour les démarches nouvelles, pour un autre devenir. Le langage complexe, l’émotion et la profondeur, le véritable travail en groupe qui caractérise les musiciens jouant ces musiques ont traversés plusieurs décennies, et intéressent de plus en plus les jeunes générations lassées des "discours" faciles, et des musiques de consommation courante.

En France, le symbole en est Magma, dont la portée de la musique s’est révélée avec les années. Mais Robert Wyatt et le Soft Machine, Miles Davis, Jimi Hendrix ont été, hors hexagone, des référents importants pour toute une génération.

Parfois, la musique atteint son but. Quand elle en a un.!

Ces musiciens nous ont ouvert l’esprit, nous ont donné le courage de combattre, pour nous-mêmes, pour la musique, pour l’être humain dans son ensemble. Après plus de trois décennies, nous réalisons à quel point cela compte. Après avoir expérimenté d’autres formes musicales, nous sommes maintenant en mesure d’en comprendre toute la portée.

10 Years Already!

When we organized the 1st Rock in Opposition (RIO) in 2007 we did not know that this event would have such longevity. At first every other year, this festival then took off each year by the attractions that it exerted to music-lovers of the whole world.
The quality of its programming and the family atmosphere of this event is no stranger.
The public of R.I.O. Has gradually developed around a family of faithful who comes from both North America and Asia.
For this anniversary we wanted (once again but especially this year) to create a unique moment.
A condensed version of the previous years which illustrates the unique spirit of the R.I.O : Its singular musical line, its sense of welcome, and its extraordinary encounters.
So here comes the time to find the audience that has trusted us during all these unforgettable editions.
The program can be questionable (and discussed!).
It is perfectly (meticulously) chosen and assumed.
Rarely has it imposed itself on me so clearly and evidently.
Many already seen? Certainly ... not by facility, but by choice.
We invited the best of what was possible, not only a large part of the groups that marked the past R.I.O. events, but also references we are delighted to have and which we would not have dared to even dream of: SLAPP HAPPY and ACID MOTHERS TEMPLE.
We are certain that the event will live up to, or rather ... exceed your expectations!
For our part, we decided to celebrate this with all the warmth and friendliness that characterizes the atmosphere of this incredible festival.
A great weekend of music that will remain, I think, unique in our memories!

So let us see each other in September? Yes.

  Good morning to all and all,
Very busy at the end of the 11th Rock In Opposition festival, I reacted a little late to the announcement of Cuneiform Records.
This is to say the importance of this label through its publishing work without which many artists would not have found a way to be broadcast.
With regard to the Rock In Opposition festival:
- we found with cuneiform a complementarity in the identification of American artists
- an ear (and a brain!) attentive to the European scene
- the possibility to broadcast many concert artists on stage and on disk
All this through a shared work of serious prescription in a common trust framework.
Which allowed these artists to play on the Rock In Opposition scene.
And to be edited by Cuneiform.
The last example, not least, is the realization of this splendid coffret art box, which I had the honour of producing the first album.
So much courage and professionalism must be recognized.
I know that the adventure will continue in another form and that the equip team will continue to amaze us by daring and still metre these new music that we all have a vital need.
See you soon on the road....

   Bonjour à tous et à toutes,
Fort occupé par la fin de la programmation du 11ème festival Rock in Opposition, je réagis un peu tardivement à l’annonce de Cuneiform Records.
Ceci pour dire toute l’importance qu’a représenté ce label à travers son travail d’édition sans lequel de nombreux artistes n’aurait pas trouvé le moyen d’être diffusée.
En ce qui concerne le festival Rock in Opposition:
- nous avons trouvé avec Cuneiform une complémentarité dans le repérage d’artistes américains
- une oreille (et un cerveau !) attentive à la scène européenne
- la possibilité de diffuser nombre d’artistes de concert sur scène et sur disque
Tout ceci par un travail partagé de prescription sérieuse dans un cadre de confiance commune.
Qui a permis à ces artistes de jouer sur la scène du Rock in Opposition.
Et d’être édités par Cuneiform.
Le dernier exemple en date, et non le moindre, étant la réalisation de ce splendide coffret d’Art Zoyd, groupe dont j’ai eu l’honneur de produire le premier album.
Autant de courage et de professionnalisme se doit d’être reconnu.
Je sais que l’aventure continuera sous une autre forme et que l’équipe de Silverspring continuera à nous étonner en osant encore et toujours metre en avant ces musiques nouvelles dont nous avons tous un besoin vital.
A bientôt sur la route....

Rock In Opposition festival 2018


Pour cette 11ème édition, le ROCK IN OPPOSITION (R.I.O.) se réinvente et sera donc le 1er d’un genre nouveau.
De jeunes groupes de la nouvelle scène française en constituent la pierre angulaire.
Fraîcheur, talent, croisement étonnant des musiques d’aujourd’hui, originalité, engagement et sincérité des artistes... des moments uniques en perspective.
Loin des formats usités, et dans une exigence de programmation artistique désormais légendaire, cette édition se propose donc de mettre en valeur les différentes scènes musicales émergentes de notre pays.
Le public fidèle, qui vient des 4 coins de la planète depuis son origine, est désormais rejoint par de très nombreux passionnés de musiques neuves et aventureuses de notre région et de la France entière.
Désormais référence internationale et point d’orgue de la nouvelle création musicale en Occitanie, le festival s’attache donc à surprendre et enthousiasmer chacun d’entre eux pour qui ce rendez-vous annuel est l’endroit ou il faut absolument être.
L’accueil chaleureux et attentionné des artistes comme du public, et leur interaction, sont sans cesse améliorés par une équipe dévouée qui s’attache à personnaliser chaque relation, dans un vrai souci de qualité et de sens de la rencontre.
Alors, bienvenue dans la famille du R.I.O. à vous tou(te)s pour ces 3 jours de surprises musicales?


For its eleventh edition, RIO is reinventing itself and is therefore going to be a brand new festival.
Young bands from the "new French scene" will be its cornerstone.
Novelties, talent, surprising mix of current music, originality, commited and sincere artists... great moments are surely to be expected.
Far from the classic format and yet respectful of a henceforth legendary and demanding programme, this edition is willing to highlight the different musical trends that are currently appearing in our country.
The ranks of the worldwide and faithful audience is now swollen by lots of enthusiatic fans of local and adventurous talents.
RIO has become an international reference and quite a summit in terms of musical inventiveness in Occitanie. Our staff always make sure that the public will be pleasantly surprised and do their best to make of our festival the very place-to-be.
We are extremely devoted to a warm and caring welcome both of the artists and of the audience. We work hard to improve it year after year. The whole team does its best to turn each encounter into a true, humane experience.
So welcome to the RIO family for those three musically surprising days!

R.I.O : «être en opposition au rock système»

LaDepeche 09/05/2017


Lorsque nous avons organisé le 1er Rock in Opposition (R.I.O.) en 2007 nous ne savions pas que cet évènement aurait une telle longévité.
D’abord biennal ce festival s’est imposé chaque année par l’attrait qu’il exerçait auprès de mélomanes du monde entier.
La qualité de sa programmation et l’ambiance familiale de cet évènement n’y est pas étrangère.
Le public du R.I.O. s’est peu à peu développé autour d’une famille de fidèles qui vient aussi bien d’Amérique du Nord et d’Asie que de toute l’Europe.
Pour cette 11ème édition, le ROCK IN OPPOSITION (R.I.O.) se réinvente et sera donc le 1er d’un genre nouveau.
De jeunes groupes de la nouvelle scène française en constituent la pierre angulaire.
Fraîcheur, talent, croisement étonnant des musiques d’aujourd’hui, originalité, engagement et sincérité des artistes… des moments uniques en perspective.
Loin des formats usités, et dans une exigence de programmation artistique désormais légendaire, cette édition se propose donc de mettre en valeur les différentes scènes musicales émergentes de notre pays.
Le public fidèle, qui vient des 4 coins de la planète depuis son origine, est désormais rejoint par de très nombreux passionnés de musiques neuves et aventureuses de notre région et de la France entière.
Désormais référence internationale et point d’orgue de la nouvelle création musicale en Occitanie, le festival s’attache donc à surprendre et enthousiasmer chacun d’entre eux pour qui ce rendez-vous annuel est l’endroit où il faut absolument être.
L’accueil chaleureux et attentionné des artistes comme du public, et leur interaction, sont sans cesse améliorés par une équipe dévouée qui s’attache à personnaliser chaque relation, dans un vrai souci de qualité et de sens de la rencontre.
La programmation sera constituée de 13 formations musicales des différentes régions françaises, ponctuée par des groupes internationaux.
Les USA seront également à l’honneur avec la venue de groupes Californiens et de la Côte Est.

PLACE A LA SCENE FRANÇAISE

Le Rock In Opposition à vocation à mettre en lumière les nouvelles formes de musiques dans un esprit d’ouverture et d’exigence artistique.
En prise directe sur les pratiques et l’actualité musicale, les programmateurs du festival s’emploient à repérer les musiciens expérimentant de nouveaux styles et fusions musicales.
Lyon, Paris, Rennes, Nancy, Bordeaux, Toulouse... de nouvelles scènes émergent en France.
La programmation, jusqu’ici très internationale, peut donc, en 2018, se recentrer sur la création hexagonale.
Fidèle à son esprit de découverte et de mise en avant de nouveaux talents et grâce à des relais actifs dans ces différentes villes, le festival s’emploie donc à créer une dynamique musicale novatrice et participe activement à ce mouvement émergent.
Portée par de nouveaux publics, cette scène alternative prometteuse définit de nouveaux styles sur la base de musiques jazz, rock et classique ouvertes à l’expérimentation et à la fusion de musiques différentes.
A l’image de Jean Louis et de son jazz surpuissant ou de la musique explosive de Piniol, et des accents Zappaiens de Camembert.
Ou encore de la démarche musicale d’un Fred Frith de l’Ocelle Mare et de la liberté de composition plus classique de l’Oeillère.
Peu de festivals ouvrent leur scène à ceux qui peuvent objectivement être considérés comme de grands artistes pour lesquels cet événement offre une exposition non seulement régionale mais aussi internationale.
C’est ainsi qu’un passage au Rock in Opposition leur permettra l’accès à de nombreuses scènes européennes voire des tournées en Asie et en Amérique du Nord.
Tout ceci sous le « parrainage » du Grand Albert Marcoeur, considéré comme le Frank Zappa français.

LE QUATUOR BELA

Point cental de cette édition, le Quatuor Bela sera le résident du R.I.O. 2018.
Il délivreront 3 concerts : un concert pédagogique, une création avec le groupe Jean Louis et un concert exceptionnel avec Albert Marcoeur.
Affirmant ainsi son ouverture à la musique contemporaine, le festival affirme sa volonté de mixer les publics en leur permettant de s’ouvrir à une culture musicale référencée, riche et ouverte et de mettre La Musique (Instrumentale mais pas uniquement) au centre d’une rencontre unique, C’est la mission principale de cet événement : repérer des groupes originaux qui mis en scène ensemble constitueront un moment exceptionnel, neuf, étonnant, inoubliable.
Et c’est également ce qui constitue la réputation et l’aura internationale du festival.

DES REFERENCES INTERNATIONALES

Il fallait aussi créer l’événement en invitant des groupes en exclusivité.
Le choix s’est porté sur 2 groupes américains : Free Salamander Exhibit (Oakland) et Alec K. Redfearn & The Eyesores (Providence).

Alec K. Redfearn & The Eyesores

Une fois de temps à autre, un groupe apparaît et fait réaliser à quel point les paramètres de la musique peuvent être souvent étroits. Alec K. Redfearn & The Eyesores est de ceux-là, bourdonnant et tourbillonnant à travers des territoires sombres et expérimentaux qui doivent autant aux musiques d'Europe de l'Est qu'au rock progressif français et au free-jazz. Leur septième album, 'Sister Death' (2013), probablement le plus accessible de leur discographie, explore les mystères de la vie, la mort, l'amour, la perte, la création et la destruction, des thèmes qui ont façonné et nourri les chansons d'Alec K. Redfearn depuis le début des années 90. Échappant à toute tentative de catégorisation, The Eyesores sont un des grands ensembles de notre temps, concevant une musique qui n'appartient clairement qu'à eux.

Alec K. Redfearn - accordion, vocals
Matt McLaren, drums, percussion
Christopher Sadlers - bass, vocals
Ann Schattle - horn

Alec K. Redfearn & The Eyesores   Cuneiform


Free Salamander Exhibit

Issus de la scène psychédélique californienne, les musiciens de Free Salamander Exhibit officiaient précédemment dans Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, un des groupes dont la prestation au Rock In Opposition à le plus marqué les esprits. La démarche de leur musique unique, au son californien si particulier, complexe, peut être comparée à celle de références anglaises du genre (Henry Cow), d’artistes californiens tels que Captain Beeefheart ou Frank Zappa avec un son propre au groupes de metal progressif américains. La théâtralité spectaculaire du groupe ajoutant à l’originalité du concept de ces artistes qui offrent un set constitué d’actes différents, ponctués de rebondissements surprenants. L’aspect visuel (costumes étranges, scénarios empreints d’une atmosphère mystérieuse) génère des concerts totalement étonnants.

Nils Frykdahl – vocals, guitar, flute
Dan Rathbun – bass, sledgehammer dulcimer, vocals
Michael Mellender – guitar, trumpet, baritone, tangularium, spleen, double-bladed cat sneeze, percussion-guitar, vocals
David Shamrock – drums, glockenspiel
Drew Wheeler – guitar, glockenspiel, theremin, waterphone, vocals

Bonjour à tous et merci d'avoir fait de cet évènement un très grand moment. C'était un pari risqué que nous avons brillamment relevé avec vous. Ce virage artistique était nécessaire et rendu possible par le talent de découvreur de Manu Muré, et par les artistes qui font tous des efforts dignes de vrais artistes justement... Ce 11ème festival se place donc en bonne place dans la légende du R.I.O. qui suscite toujours autant de "vocations" et de rêves qu'en 1978, année de sa création. Ses fondateurs (Chis Cutler, Fred Frith et les musiciens d'Henry Cow) peuvent en être fiers. Le travail des bénévoles et de l'équipe salariée est à saluer, celui des techniciens aussi. L'importance de ce moment rare pour nous tous est devenu une évidence. Et j'en suis, malgré tout, chaque fois étonné. Une nouvelle génération s'en empare et c'est peut être le plus important à cette heure. Car la transmission de cette culture et de la liberté qu'elle véhicule est essentielle. Nous avons encore beaucoup de travail pour la clôturer... Merci encore à vous tous qui avez été là, venus de si loin et si présents. A très bientôt, Michel Besset.

Hello everyone and thank you for making this event a great moment. It was a risky bet that we brilliantly took up with you. This artistic turn was necessary and made possible by Manu Muré's discovering talent, and by the artists who make all the efforts worthy of real artists ... This 11th festival is therefore placed in a good place in the legend of R.I.O. which still generates as many "vocations" and dreams as in 1978, year of its creation. Its founders (Chris Cutler, Fred Frith and Henry Cow musicians) can be proud of it. The work of the volunteers and the salaried team is to be welcomed, that of the technicians too. The importance of this rare moment for all of us has become obvious. And I am, despite everything, every time amazed. A new generation is seizing it and it may be the most important at this time. Because the transmission of this culture and the freedom it conveys is essential. We still have a lot of work to finish it ... Thanks again to all of you who have been here from so far and so present. See you soon, Michel Besset.

A NEW ROCK IN OPPOSITION

Rock in Opposition (R.I.O.) is a musical movement founded in the 1970s by progressive rock bands, at the instigation of drummer Chris Cutler, guitarist Fred Frith and their band Henry Cow.
Initially, this movement aims to change attitudes in music listening, and especially to oppose the record industry that refuses to publish their albums. The motto of the movement is «to rock differently by opposing the record industry». Since then, this protesting musical movement no longer really exists in itself, it has taken another form, and many people continue to use this name to designate some progressive, avant-garde, fusion, psychedelic or experimental rock bands that remain outside the norms established by the music business. The culmination of this current, still alive, is structured around an international festival: Rock in Opposition France Event. Various editions took place in England, Italy and France, including 11 editions in Carmaux, near Albi in the south west of France. Meeting of top musicians and an audience of enthusiasts from five continents, the Abattoirs of Bourgoin-Jallieu and Periscope in Lyon are honored to host this essential meeting of the music of today, whose quality of reception and the requirement of the artistic programming do not decline with the passing of years.
Focused around the highlights of Present’s new creation, in residency for a week at «Les Abattoirs» and Robert Wyatt’s Rock Bottom, Rock in Opposition presents 11 bands French and international:
both historical references of this movement: Koenji Hyakkei (Japan), The Watts (Chris Cutler, Tim Hodkinson, Yumi Hara), John Greaves and Geoff Leigh (England) but also the young French scene and especially from the area (Poil, Piniol).
These international meetings (the public coming from 20 different countries, North and South America, Asia, Europe, Eastern Europe and the Middle East) will be the occasion for direct exchanges between artists and the public thanks to conferences (in 2 languages) by each groups scheduled at the end of their concert, a unique opportunity to discover the spirit and the work of the musicians, in a direct relationship with the artist. The meeting, the exchange, the transmission but also of course the discovery of new music and the emotion being, since its origin, the main objectives of Rock in Opposition.
All this in a friendly atmosphere whose qualities of reception of the public, the artists, the care brought to the sound, the range of discography of the present distributors is from now on legendary.
In view of the exigency, the originality, the innovation, the defense of the aesthetics not mediatised by the artistic and cultural projects of «Les Abattoirs» and «Le Periscope», to welcome the Rio in our venues is an evidence. To give voice to this musical current, without concessions, which reminds us of the very essence of Rock, seems to us to be indispensable at the moment when the average public is drowned by the media flows of a Pop tinged with electro which one names too often Rock.
This invitation to travel, to meet international, national and regional audiences and artists, delights us and we hope you many to live these unique moments that we guarantee you unforgettable. Finally, the climax of this Rio 2019, with the presentation of Robert Wyatt’s major work, Rock Bottom, by the North Sea Radio Orchestra with John Greaves & Annie Barbazza promises to reach the heights of the history of the Rio . No doubt, a pure moment of pleasure ...... ..

To conclude, welcome to all in the great family of R.I.O. !

Keep on Rocking.

UN NOUVEAU ROCK IN OPPOSITION

Le Rock in Opposition (R.I.O.), ou Rock en opposition, est un mouvement musical fondé dans les années 1970 par des groupes de rock progressif, à l’instigation du batteur Chris Cutler, du guitariste Fred Frith et de leur groupe Henry Cow.
À l’origine, ce mouvement a pour but de faire évoluer les mentalités en matière d’écoute musicale, et surtout de s’opposer à l’industrie du disque qui refuse d’éditer leurs albums. La devise du mouvement est « faire du rock autrement en s’opposant à l’industrie du disque ».
Depuis, ce mouvement musical contestataire n’existe plus vraiment en soi, il a pris une autre forme, et de nombreuses personnes continuent d’utiliser cette appellation pour désigner certains groupes de rock progressif, avant-gardistes, fusion, psychédéliques ou expérimentaux qui restent en dehors des normes établies par le commerce de la musique.
Le point d’orgue de ce courant toujours vivace, s’est structuré autour d’un festival international : le Rock in Opposition France Event. Différentes éditions ont eu lieu en Angleterre, Italie et en France dont 11 éditions à Carmaux, près d’Albi dans le sud ouest de la France. Rencontre de musiciens de haut vol et d’un public de passionnés venu des cinq continents, les Abattoirs de Bourgoin-Jallieu et le Periscope à Lyon sont honorés d’accueillir ce rendez-vous incontournable des musiques d’aujourd’hui, dont la qualité d’accueil et l’exigence de la programmation artistique ne se démentent pas au fil des ans.
Axé autour de temps forts comme la nouvelle création du groupe Present, en résidence pendant une semaine aux Abattoirs et l’interprétation de Rock Bottom, le Rock in Opposition présente 11 groupes français et internationaux : à la fois des références historiques de ce mouvement : Koenji Hyakkei (Japon), The Watts (Chris Cutler, Tim Hodkinson, Yumi Hara), John Greaves et Geoff Leigh (Angleterre) mais aussi la jeune scène française et tout particulièrement celle de Auvergne Rhône Alpes (Poil, Piniol).
Ces rencontres internationales (le public venant communément de 20 pays différents (Amérique du Nord et du Sud, Asie, Europe, Pays de l’Est et Moyen Orient) seront l’occasion d’échanges directs entre les artistes et le public grâce aux conférences données (en 2 langues) par chacun des groupes programmés à l’issue de leur concert.
Une occasion unique de découvrir l’esprit et l’oeuvre des musiciens, dans un rapport direct à l’artiste.
La rencontre, l’échange, la transmission mais aussi bien sûr la découverte de nouvelles musiques et l’émotion sont, depuis son origine, les objectifs majeurs du Rock in Opposition.
Tout cela dans un cadre convivial dont les qualités d’accueil du public, des artistes, le soin apporté au son, l’éventail discographique des distributeurs présents est désormais légendaire.
Au regard de l’exigence, de l’originalité, de l’innovation , de la défense des esthétiques non médiatisées que portent les projets artistiques et culturels des Abattoirs et du Périscope, accueillir le Rio pour nos Scènes de musiques actuelles coulent de source. Donner la parole à ce courant musical, sans concessions, qui nous rappelle l’essence même du Rock, nous paraît comme indispensable au moment où le public lambda est noyé par les flux médiatiques d’une Pop teintée d’électro que l’on nomme trop souvent Rock.
Cette invitation au voyage, à la rencontre des publics et artistes internationaux, nationaux et régionaux , nous ravit et nous vous espérons nombreux pour vivre ces moments uniques que nous vous garantissons inoubliables.
Enfin, le point culminant de ce Rio 2019, avec la présentation de l’oeuvre majeure de Robert Wyatt, Rock Bottom, par le North Sea Radio Orchestra avec John Greaves & Annie Barbazza nous promet d’atteindre les sommets de l’histoire du RIO. A n’en pas douter, un pur moment de plaisir ...... ..

Bienvenu à tou(te)s dans la grande famille du R.I.O. !

Annonce

C’est avec beaucoup de regret que je dois vous annoncer aujourd’hui que la 12ème édition du ROCK IN OPPOSITION France Event qui s’est tenue à Bourgoin-Jallieu et Lyon en mai dernier est la dernière du nom.
En effet, compte tenu du changement de direction de la scène de musique actuelle « Les Abattoirs », et de la mutation complexe des missions de son équipe, il serait très risqué d’envisager une prochaine édition.
A l’issue de l’arrêt du R.I.O. de Carmaux, nous avions, José Molina (Directeur des Abattoirs) et moi-même fait le maximum pour maintenir cet évènement unique sur le territoire national.
Aujourd’hui c’est la fin de cette magnifique histoire.
Et c’est avec beaucoup de peine, à la fois pour les organisateurs, bénévoles, techniciens, artistes et public que nous devons prendre cette décision.

Pour ma part je continue à travailler sur d’autres projets dont, j’espère, j’aurai l’occasion de vous parler très prochainement...

Merci à vous tous pour cette fabuleuse aventure.

Et Vive la MUSIQUE. Michel Besset 06/10/2019 13:10.



Important release

It is with a great sadness that I must announce today that the 12th edition of the ROCK IN OPPOSITION France Event held in Bourgoin-Jallieu and Lyon last may is the last of the name. Indeed, given the change of direction of the current music scene "Les Abattoirs", and the complex mutation of the missions of his team, it would be very risky to consider a next edition.
At the end of the R.I.O. from Carmaux, we had, José Molina (Director of the Abattoirs) and I did my utmost to maintain this unique event on the national territory.
Today is the end of this wonderful story. And it is with great difficulty, both for the organizers, volunteers, technicians, artists and public that we must make this decision.

For my part I continue to work on other projects which, I hope, I will have the opportunity to talk to you very soon...

Thank you all for this fabulous adventure.

And long live MUSIC. Michel Besset 06/10/2019 13:11
