Really amazing sounds from Alain Meunier – one of the few artists we know who can blend acoustic guitar and electronics with effortless ease – and create his own music with a very unusual vibe! The electronics dominate the record, as Meunier plays a variety of keyboards throughout – but the use of guitar also humanizes the music, and seems to balance its own progressions with more cosmic elements that come from the deft fingers of Alain! Some tunes evoke spacier territory of the German scene, but others have a more poetic vibe, especially when the guitar comes into play – and the whole thing is instrumental, with titles that include "Ballade", "Aplysia Depilans", "Promenade Avec Les Poissons", "Les Epaves", and "Descente Dans Ce Monde Inconnu" DustyGroove
