DE L'AUTRE CÔTÉ DU MONDE

Hune is coming from Quebec zone, Canada, and manageing to release so far the album De l'Autre Côté du Monde issued in 2009. Well, this album is a quite great one I tell you, it sounds like it was released in '78 or earlier, symphonic prog with some folk touches here and there. Is intristing that Hune is all about one musician Daniel Couturier, who is responsable for all instruments that are heared here + a helping hand from André Bourget responsable for vocal department. Hune music is taking influences from Qubec greats from golded era of prog like Sloche, but also quite similar with Ere G also from Canada. The music is complex full of great arrangements, acustic guitars not far from folk zone, keyboards interluded brilliant with the guitar and a pleasent voice on top. If you don't know the year of release you could swear that this album was released in the mid to late'70's, but this is not a problem because Hune manage to create something good and intristing in same time. My fav piece is La Lettre de Marque with amzing guitar parts, specilly the intro of the pieces is killer, very nice. The longest track of the album, the title De l'Autre Côté du Monde, clocking near 25 min is a truly piece of work, complex symph prog with some memorable passages, is hard to belive that is the work of only one person, but in the end hands down for this Daniel Couturier, great multi instrumentalist. Some Pink Floud elements appear here and there giving a spacey atmosphere. So, 4 stars for this album, worth to be discovered because the listners may find some intristing moments here that keeps the flag high in prog rock zone.
