| AUX SOLITUDES from JEAN-PHILIPPE
GOUDE is certainly a play on words on Purcell (O
solitude), but this album of classic instrumental and post-rock
returns to a serious theme, that is an essential, and which
does not consist of a consensual complaint on the planet’s
degradation but instead, of an evocation of a major challenge.
The announcement of the death of God has turned us into orphans.
It’s up to us to fully pay the consequences. |

| MATT ELLIOTT continued
on DRINKING SONGS the mutation he initiated
with The mess we made (Domino rcds) : less beats to let voices
and guitars give the shock. The following album, FAILING
SONGS proved he's now a real songwriter. The third
opus of the trilogy, HOWLING SONGS should
be released in october. |

| Hailing from the remote cliffs,
panoramic views and “hidden” civilisation of the
Faroe Islands ORKA was always bound to be different but the
fact that these boys build their own instruments is what makes
them truly unique ! They will play 5 times with Yann
Tiersen at
the
prestigious
30th anniversary of the Transmusicales de Rennes. |

| JULIEN RIBOT is
back today with VEGA, a record he wrote between
Paris, Berlin, Copenhagen, Rome and Florence... Without being
a concept album, this new release is fully coherent and builds
up again a subtle and captivating atmosphere. The artist describes
a quest for identity and inner peace throughout the fourteen
tracks of the LP which stand for joyful or sad – but
always edifying - personal experiences. |

| BARTH is
introducing CUCHILLO, his third album in
the nice little movie "Cuchillo at the fishmarket" by
Fabien Leroy. "A sort of French Damon Albarn meets Beck
meets Roy Orbison. A groovy looking fella with a talent to
match" said Dazed & Confused. |

THE MARRIED MONK is involved in ELEPHANT
PEOPLE, a "sideshows opera" project
with director Renaud Cojo. They play live
during this multimedia show (libretto by Daniel
Keene) around monsters and freaks including most
famous of them, Joseph Merrick aka Elephant man. We released
the score of the show in a beautiful boxed set.

ZËRO (Eric Aldéa, Ivan Chiossone,
Franck Laurino and François Cuilleron) seems with
their first album JOKE BOX to be the missing
link, the connection between the inventive post
rock of Bästard and the elusive melodies of Narcophony.

Singer of the mythical bands Diabologum and of Programme
as well, ARNAUD MICHNIAK tries his skills
at a new solo project POING PERDU, which drives
rock hip hop and electro to the wall.

We are pleased to welcome ARCA for his third
album. With ON NE DISTINGUAIT PLUS LES TETES,
the duo proposes an ambient organic rock which focuses on Sylvain
Chauveau’s warm voice that has been revealed by Down
to the Bone, his album that pays tribute to Depeche Mode. |
|
 |
Another new signature on the label, the Australian Griot STEVE
TALLIS conquers Europe with his rough and inspired
blues rock. The release of the album LOKO was
followed by a fall tour that let us hope his return as soon
as possible. |
