It’s always a great feeling for us to bump into such a nice fan video. This one is by Sarah Sinclair and was shot in Inverness (Scotland). Thanks Sarah.

Massive Attic

Guillaume — Sun, 15 Aug 2010 15:01:02 +0000

How many hours, how many days, how many years (saturday nights included !) spent in the attic listening to jazz, blowing the hell out in my horn “along” Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, the Brecker Brothers, Wayne Shorter, Joe Henderson, Branford Marsalis… (without having a clue about what I was doing of course). Yes I used to be a serious geek. One the weirdest. I confess it today. It took me a few more years of rehab to feel as a part of the real world again.
Now I’m fine, thank you I have a social life, I even know who hits the charts (more or less) but one thing will remain the same : I don’t have a single memory of the 90′s. I was in the attic.

The day I missed Peter Gabriel for ever (Guillaume)

Guillaume — Wed, 11 Aug 2010 19:09:15 +0000

Back in 1986, I was 12 going on 13. My brother got these tickets to see Peter Gabriel live – the SO tour ! I had just spent the whole summer listening to the LP tape until it totally faded out (I would even play it loud in the bathroom, wow the echo on Red Rain). I was SO excited. Then, the drama happened : I got the worst mark ever at some kind of math exam; who cares about second degree equations anyway ? Well my parents did. The punishment was terrible. No concert of Peter Gabriel for me. I still haven’t seen him live since. Like that day I missed him for ever.

Here’s the proof in video with Lasse Gjertsen. He’s the incarnation of what I like about Art; the interaction between the idea, the technic, plus an extra dose of “I-don’t give-a-shit-attitude” worthy of the greatest geniuses ! Bravo ! — Antoine

Psapp is the band I cherish since my college years. This album, in particular, The only thing I ever wanted. I enjoy their music a lot, a mix of electro and noises of all kinds. Their songs are based on a very simple receipe : a few bars in loop, a superposition of elements and a fine melody that make a verse, then a chorus, then a verse… easy as ABC. — Julie
