This album is mainly electronic music of the 70's. For me, a nice and happy meeting with A.R.T. again (I put my hands on it only a few time ago). The music is the original soundtrack of a french movie. It is again a sample of a travel in the world of experimental music with organs and synthesisers, the most of it oniric and very, very atmospheric, typically progressive electronic of the 70's, rather than krautrock (the first two songs Le Berceau de Cristal, the unique L'Hiver Doux and the last track Les Fantomes... are magnificent). Remarkable are the continuous experiments Gottsching had made with his electric guitar, everything at the highest point!( Deux Enfants sous la Lune). There are also some tracks in which the electronic experiments are a little grave and moody, leading to a more dramatic sound (Le Diable dans la Maison). The result is very good, there is nothing I could reproach on it!

Overall, another piece of great music from this unique band, I would highly recommend!
