Comment: undoubtedly music which is based on fun and a primitive base may paradoxically be more serious than seriously intended music. Of course, it might be the case of proper adjectives but this set of 12 compositions is a frantic example of disparate elements which starts off with the sound of a cheap second-hand synthesiser, however, later incorporating strings and freaky singing to the mix. biche is an example of motorik electro rock though it did start off with the buffoonish mantra and continuing with a spoken word snippet and some concrete sounds here and there. Do I perceive it in a schizoid way? No, I do not. Johnny Bigoudi is a seminal crossroad for heavy beats and droning synths to get harmonized in a poignant way. All the lyrics are sung in French except the one phrase /like Sonic Youth/ at Trou. Indeed, I also like Sonic Youth though not so much as… . Or like Sonic Youth. This whole is not like Sonic Youth though. In spite of this enormous miscellany the whole will not water down and being convincing due to revealing its coherent nature ultimately (it is paradoxical, isn`t?). Many tracks within involve psychedelic layers with acidic organs and toy-like electronic sounds. The issue is a part of the discography of such a label as Les Diks Qui Sautent (065).
