5 stars VAK are back with their second Soleil Zeuhl release three years after their debut. The core of the band is the same with Aurélie Saintecroix (wordless vocals), Alexandre Michaan (keyboards), Joël Crouzet (guitar & bass) & Vladimir Mejstelman (drums). The sound is filled out with guests Michaël Havard & Nora Froger on sax's and flutes respectively.

Their sound is heavily influenced by Eskaton, particularly the wordless vocals, and Magma. They have a very retro zeuhl sound with driving rhythmic bass and drums with keys primarily leading the composition. If you like long instrumental pieces that suck you in with the a groove that grooves and grooves you'll love this. One of the highlights of the year.

Mastered by Udi Koomran and a very happy return of the Soleil Zeuhl label who have been quiet for a couple of years.
