DESTINATIONS

1. La Terre des Elfes 2024 and the sound of BROGUIERE has evolved, more metallic, less warm, more conventional; a first title that goes on many folk reminiscences to make you dream, finally try, it's a bit redundant with these overrated choirs that draw from the 80s; uh 40 years without real evolution? 2. Rockland changes air, rhythm, a nasty riff, Gregorian choirs of the ERA kind, well, a copy anyway with the return of these female choirs sprinkling the piece, yes in terms of choir we will be well into it in fact, and a well- made ersatz for those who have been locked up for 20-30 years in a cave, a facsimile for other listeners, yes important to point out this fact 3. Hyperion goes to the medieval era, with enthusiasm; ambient space break with choirs again, more creation finally, the voices start hard from the BREGOVIC of the more interesting 'time of the gypsies'; after divine clarification coming out of a cathedral, emphatic, a little electronics with vocoder flirting with KRAFTWERK and return of the medieval flute, string instruments, very good reminding me of the good intuitive progressive time.

4. Dreamland for the bewitching sound of the violin, finally credited under keyboard sampler; a beautiful bucolic ballad with phrasing vocals and the guitar smelling good of that of Mike OLDFIELD 5. The final prophecy with the intro in church organ, the touch of BROGUIERE of his titles of the beginning, printing creative musical energy; an air like Wally BADAROU very good organist also who found titles full of enthusiasm; the flute comes for a time to give more joy to this grandiloquent title on the emotional level; choirs and bells in the finale for a dynamic, catchy piece without remaining contemplative, his touch is still there! 6. Voix du désert with the typical intro, 100% oriental vocal validating the dark atmosphere of the start; opalescent keyboard layers then the world beat and the languid voice bring closer to the sounds of SEVEN REIZH; melancholy comes to light and falls back into the trap of the mishmash of repetition unfortunately; an average listener will find the album complimentary, a critic very good because he can't do better; a fan will find the repetition easy, superficial, in this world where creation has difficulty breaking through; redundant finale 7. Dernière destination haughty, solemn piano; piece highlighting the stylish vocal of the Maghreb on a Christian religious air, good intention here for the rapprochement of peoples; melancholic title with a divine wind for the austere, glacial, interesting fade 8. The land of the elves (Radio Edit) (to get to the point and make you forget the feeling of repetition of the original title 9. Rockland (Radio Edit) for the same remark, knowing that a radio edit in 2024 with what is played on the radio is just a tad laughable or mocking, choose. An album that brings nothing new, not sounding the mystical and embellishing side of its albums of yesteryear, lacking energy.
