Zaboitzeff, Thierry
Professional Stranger
In many ways, the new album evokes daring musical approaches in the form of cinematic miniatures that provide rich offerings for pictorial associations. The moods are more moderate, but remain uncompromising and resist any flattery. The themes are interspersed with subtle winks and subliminal influences, the rhythmic tension is rather minimal, we find cello, bass, keyboards, vocals and the unexpected accordion beautifully sampled and orchestrated. One will appreciate the accuracy of the production and the consistent compositional signature that feeds on an accordion/bandoneon somehow wandering through Central Europe. "professional stranger" goes beyond any affiliation to a musical trend. It goes beyond the division into "schools . The covers of "Enjoy the silence" (Depeche mode) and "Venus" (Shocking Blue) fit the album well, their unique colours well integrated into the images of an exhibition. Close your eyes, the film is about to start. Music genre : electro symphonic art rock - ambient - classical contemporary - alternative - post rock music for film - dance theater music...
