Boomkat Product Review:

Le Mystérieux Orchestre Électronique de Paris emerge from a veil of secrecy with their maiden night voyage of discovery in the fissures between ambient, new age, and krautrock for Gilb’R’s increasingly starry-eyed Versatile Records - RIYL Gas, Ariel Kalma, Iasos, Kluster, Global Communications

Following the leads of Vagues Imaginaires, Chimère FM, I:Cube’s ‘Live at the Planetarium’, Gilbert Cohen’s jams with Ariel Kalma, and work by Jonathan Fitoussi; Le Mystérieux Orchestre Électronique de Paris suggest minds and bodies to the horizontal in four durational works of enchanted sandman tekkerz that each take as long as they need to cast their spell. Arriving with little to no background info on the band, listeners can play the guessing game if they wish, or more simply allow imaginations to be swept away on the music’s lustrous, finely textured contours and empath harmonic resonance.

‘Apologie des Apogées au Sommet de la Montagne’ opens with a sublime mission statement, coaxing gentlest choral pads and analog arp fronds into a cat’s cradle astral raft that bobs on pure moonlight to a shimmering peak. The wilting string loops of ‘Lénification des Affects Par le Zéphyr Distant’ follows with a lovely approximation of Wolfgang Voigt’s airy ambient strolls as Gas, replete with crackly twigs and dewy flora, before centrepiece ‘Nuées de Nostalgie d'une Ère (Pas Encore) Passée’ allows for more intrigue with incidental patina of overheard convos and etheric distortion lend a bristlign frisson to the awning angelic pads over its 12 minute night flight. ‘Pensées Telluriques Avant le Grand Adieu’ slowly flutters back to the twinkling lights on earth with a notably tension in its metallic arps that imply it’s maybe best up there, away from the madness down on terra firma.
