![]() A really unique, hard and cosmic listening experience, ''Delired Cameleon Family'' explores the world of long spacey synthesizer passages, weird jazzy improvisations, fiery Fusion guitar workouts and trippy, psychedelic soundscapes, almost like a cross between the cosmic Kraut madness of ASH RA TEMPEL and AMON DUUL and the more Fusion side of GONG.From its start to the very end the album swirls around outlandish and loose arrangements, which have a cosmic or jazzy feel, depending on the track, but the result is not very succesful, though the album rather serves the needs of the movie than comes as a typical music effort.From the several spacey parts I definitely give credit to the nice guitar work of Boule, Agostini and Coaquette with some sort of OLDFIELD-ian vibe, though much more jazzy in nature.The sax solos of Francois Jeaneau and Ariel Kalman are also passionate and dynamic, adding another dimension to this unique experience.But the majority of the arrangements are characterized by bizzarre abstract sections and stretched cosmic synths, that at the end prevent these nice parts to be fully appreciated. This is an album for specific listenings, just when you need something very trippy to relax upon it.Musically though I would only recommend it to fans of GONG and Electronic/Kraut Rock...2.5 stars.
