Borguefül is the solo project of French double bassist and vocalist Mélanie Loisel. Drawing from free improvisation, contemporary composition, and the raw pulse of traditional song, Borguefül unfolds a world of dissonances, strange syllables and visceral soundscapes. Voice and double bass merge in earthy, hypnotic layers — rasping, droning, whispering, erupting — evoking rain, stone, wind, and monsters.

Sung in a revisited patois from Haute-Loire, the music vibrates with deep textures and fractured melodies, rooted in ritual, shadow, and soil. It's both ancient and experimental: a rough cartography of sensation, shaped by breath, bowed strings, and silence.

Released on Pagans Records and La République des Granges, the debut album Horst introduced Borguefül as a fierce and singular voice on the outer edges of folk and noise.
