OCD022 : Philippe Tasquin - Bandes originales des films de Gerlando Infuso (Les pécheresses / L'œil du paon / Milovan circus)
He composed a dozen albums, all from improbable different musical genres like clownesque glam-rock, symphonique pop or songs with a string quartet.
He has collaborated with as many various personalities as the singer Vincent Trouble (‘Tasquin vs Trouble), producer and multi instruments Pierre Vervloesem ( soon to be re released on Off ‘My Skinny Wonderland’), stage director Charlie Degotte (various ‘Revues’ or the opera ‘Youpi’) or the singer Julie Jaroszwski (‘Furia’).
His musical style is often tinted by mystery, strangeness or concern.
He loves to use pastiche and to re conciliate the extremes: burlesque and lyrisme, severity and self-deprecating, complex and pop music.

Gerlando Infuso (pic by Emilie Montagner)
‘ A une époque submergée par la technologie et l’ère numérique, il est réjouissant de voir surgir et de reconnaître l’expression de l’artisan. Dans les films de Gerlando Infuso, qui auraient presque pu être réalisés à l’époque de Mélies, l’amour du détail, le soin apporté à chaque accessoire, chaque costume et chaque décor laissent pantois. Quant aux cadrages et à la mise en scène, ils sont l’oeuvre à la fois d’un peintre et d’un authentique cinéaste.
Je me suis senti instantanément familier de l’univers sombre, baroque et poétique de Gerlando.
Mettre en musique ses films intemporels et singuliers représentèrent un sacré défi, et voir ses créatures s’animer sur ma musique furent un pur plaisir.
L’auditeur attentif percevra peut-être ici ou là des échos de Bernard Herrman, John Barry, Ennio Morricone… j’écoute leurs musiques depuis l’enfance. Mais j’ai aussi convoqué, parmi quelques fantômes du passé Sibélius et Duke Ellington, quand le besoin s’en est fait sentir!
Qu’ils soient donc tous ici remerciés et crédités.’
In the films of Gerlando Infuso , which could almost have been made at the time Mélies , attention to detail , the care with every accessory , every outfit and every setting give startling results . As for the framing and staging , they are the work of both a painter and a genuine filmmaker.
I felt instantly familiar with the dark, baroque and poetic univers of Gerlando .
To create music for his timeless and unique film represented quite a challenge, and see his creatures come to life on my music was pure pleasure.
The attentive listener may perceive here and there echoes of Bernard Herrmann, John Barry, Ennio Morricone ... I listen to their music since childhood. But I also convened among some ghosts of the past Sibelius and Duke Ellington, when needed !
So they are all here thanked and credited . '
