The | | mission began perfectly, according to plan. From the very first | | measures, the travellers were released from the Earth's gravity. Very | | quickly, their home planet appeared tiny and distant, before | | disappearing completely. Comets and novae lit the way through the | | fathomless depths of interstellar space. Their preliminary, in-depth | | studies of seventies jazzfunk were a great source of inspiration. Very | | early on they knew that this sonic esthetic would allow them to travel | | even farther, navigating only with organic instruments and no digital | | backing or enhancements. Commander Virgile Raffaelli's bass lines | | guided their journey, offering a calm, yet vibrant foundation for the | | smoother phases and turning up the power to bring them through | | turbulence and meteor showers safe and sound. Like a compass, the bass | | indicated the direction and traced a groove that the loyal valued crew | | could follow as their travels continued. Mathieu Edouard's drums | | solidly locked down the rhythm to avoid any sudden jolts, working in | | tandem with Erwan Loeffel's jet-propelled percussion. On the keyboards | | Florian Pellissier drew harmonie s and riffs from the synthesizers and | | electric pianos to oil the machinery and lighten the load when the | | ensemble needed to rise a few feet. The crew's almost telepathic | | cohesion was key to their success, allowing them to express interior | | emotions with just a few notes. | | | | Here is the last transmission we received: | | | | We have landed on an unknown planet and are depressurizing the airlock | | with help from subtle horns and ethereal choruses so we can discover | | the new horizon. It definitely meets our expectations! The desert | | before us holds the promise of new life. The warm yet fresh air is | | easy to breathe. A vague psychedelic scent floats through the | | atmosphere, as if ready to spring from the first flower to bloom. | | Dreamlike mysterious enigmatic yet familiar we will call it Aldorande. | | | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
