Le silence des Hautes Fagnes

When you venture onto the lesser-known trails of the Hautes Fagnes, what really stands out is the silence. A silence which, if we take the time to listen, tells us many stories.

To capture these fleeting moments, we called on composer Nicolas Allard, aka Olvo. Equipped with his microphone and headphones, he went out to meet the elusive nature of the Hautes Fagnes.

From these sounds, he composed several tracks, inspired by the stories and legends that have shaped these little-known walks.

Follow Olvo, your guide, on a selection of mysterious routes.

Ghost Beat Tape Vol. 10

A compilation of some of my work between 2020 and 2024.
Basically, a melting pot of tracks not intended to be on an album.Many of which are the result of sound research, commissions, rap instrumentals that didn't find a place, etc. The whole thing ranges from Ambient to abstract Hip-Hop beats, embellished with field recording, naturalistic discourse and vocal yoghurt.

Limitless Possibilities

Olvo's first proper album. A luminous record that evokes the search for oneself and the magic of life. The opus features a number of super features including Magic Malik and Témé Tan, and has been very well received by critics and the public alike.

Olvo - Olvo LP

Olvo's very first release. A sort of beat tape that already shows the composer's distinctive style. It contains the track Arp 128, which remains one of his most popular songs to this day.
