Bousquet demonstrates a unique ability to forge a cohesive sonic world, employing a diverse array of techniques and sound sources. Florescere is a thoughtfully crafted album revealing itself slowly through rich harmonies and memorable melodies, rewarding repeated listening.

From the opening chimes of Recurrence, the album invites listeners into a multi-layered musical narrative, exploring the dualities of movement and stillness. The second track, How to Make an Exit, investigates form through themes of resolution, entrances, and exits. As the album progresses, Divisible Machine examines how time is measured and how personal perception can alter these measurements, expanding or contracting them.

Listeners are then drawn into Enveloper, a soundscape that evokes a sense of omnipresent time and presence through overtones and an electronic choir. The title track, Florescere, marks a new beginning beyond the constraints of place and time, characterized by jubilant sequences and a resolute low end. The A-side concludes with And the Void Becomes Eloquent, a cyclical composition where repetitions gradually move toward their undoing. The work concludes with a profound sense of rest and ethereal pause on the B-side track, Being, Becoming.

Available on black vinyl, white vinyl, and cassette tape, Florescere features six tracks on side A that blend intricate rhythms and lush textures. Side B presents a 30-minute drone piece, offering a contemplative journey through ambient soundscapes.

Designed by John Brien and mastered by Tom Eaton, each detail of Florescere reflects Bousquet's commitment to crafting a unique auditory and visual experience. With striking letter-pressed sleeves by Monoroid, the album is a tactile delight.
