OVD067 : Pierre Vervloesem / Underwater Adventures
Digital release on the 24th of February 2023.
The new imaginary soundtrack from Pierre. A reminder of our childhood when instead of Netflix we had those black and white series like Nautilus etc... Lot's of vocalises as well in an underwater language! Enjoy!
Third album from this original Japanese combo (see also OJP003 and OJP032) including 2 bass players, a drummer and the fantastic Yuichi Onoue (see also OJP017, OJP019, OJP026 and OJP030) playing his hand made instruments.
Once again the band plays a polyrhythmic music which mixes rock with Japanese influences to give us a unique sound.
8 new tracks going further than their previous albums.
This time it is also quite different from his previous ones even though it stays typically Tetsuroh's music.
Lots of pianos, lots of arrangements, more rhythms and percussive elements than before and a very distinctive Japanese sounding like on number 2 with the flute and the percussion!
Once again a splendid album that will comfort your ears for hours!

ODG165 : Les Boucles Absurdes / Des Fantômes dans la Prairie
Des Fantômes dans la Prairie was originally made for representations in octophonic sound and to bring people to another dimension and level of perception in a spacial environment.
It is a mix of electronics, field recordings and electroacoustic textures combined in a flux of poetic vibes and atmospheres made to let you completely immersed in a maelstrom of subtle surrounding sounds and music.
Though released here in stereo, those 4 tracks give you a good idea of what they would sound if you had the chance of being in the middle of 8 speakers.
Jean-Pierre jonckherre and Jean-Louis Poliart have founded 'Les gens d'éther' to bring you in their sonic adventures. They are based in Belgium and can be contacted to offer you this incredible musical journey on demand.
