CRÉATION DE L'UNIVERS

Many years ago, reading "The first three minutes", a book about the birth of the Universe written by the Nobel prize winner Steven Weinberg, I start thinking that it would have been a great idea for a concept. I never wrote a single note of that, but I kept it in my mind for a long time. After about 30 years I have discovered that somebody else had a similar idea and has developed it very better than I could have ever made.

This album follows this line and I have to be honest, is my first Zeuhl other than Magma. What a surprise! Not only for the concept, but also for the mix of relax and pathos that's also a mix of jazz, Canterbury and maybe some Vangelis.

I won't go track by track. This is an astonishing album, less "difficult" than Magma, but not less intriguing. In particular "Terre" (Earth) all the three parts of it are really great,

Listening to this album I've been transported into a different realm. For me it's the best new discovery of 2010 thanks to PA and the reviewers who made me curious about this band.

I'm aware that this is not a great review, but I was wishing to tell somebody about this music so I couldn't wait to have totally uderstood it before writing. I'm sure that every new thing I will find into this will only increase my listening pleasure.

Of course 5 stars.
