Inventive and enjoyable

What there is of good with Laurent de Wilde is that it gives us whenever the intent behind each of the titles of his records in a concise text licked, contained in a booklet and full of smart care. Because De Wilde is a man attentive to detail, concerned with near mania to leave to posterity a work in which nothing could task. After, we love or not, but the preparation work and construction is always impeccable in any case, album after album.

In this installment in 2003, is electronic music that is in the spotlight. But not a lonely electronics, pushed to its limits as will be the case in 2010 when his album of all it is possible to draw a piano retrafiqué to the computer has been done. Rather, it is a subtle marriage with the trump of Flavio Boltro in the beautiful "Flavvy Flav ', pure and warm voice of Malia in a" If I Could "the essential expression or trombone Julien Chirol the concluding title "All due." The result is surprising, dreamlike, often spellbinding permanent interference with small pieces of sounds (see the magical "Snippets" made exclusively from bits of sounds assembled with great inventiveness), often at the limit of undetectable but as essential as mustard to bind a sauce and give it its character at once firm and spicy.

I admit I was fascinated from the first listen and letting myself be carried away by an invitation to a journey both spiritual, aesthetic, and music course, always full of invention and stories that are told to those who want to lend an attentive ear. And what work of sound recording, mixing and programming! A real silverware.
