ant-zen is proud to present the eagerly awaited fourth full length album
by the german noise chanteuse geneviéve pasquier - an imaginary arena
where avant-garde, pop and industrial ingredients intermix in the most
peculiar way like a milky oil-in-water emulsion. the thirteen
atmospheric, captivating compositions build the foundation for easily
understood and utterly incomprehensible thematic symbolism between bleak
shadows ('apesanteur', 'dirty blue') and enjoyable brightness ('gin
tonic').
'louche effect' digs different stylistic gardens and shows the eccentric
femme fatale at ease with a wide spectrum of sounds and subjects. it's
sonic span ranges from highly dosed dark electro avant-pop with hooked
new romantic melody lines and primordial neo-noir post industrial
dreamscapes to eerily haunting chansons with deep ethereal lounge and
downtempo elements. geneviéve's fragile, persuasive and sometimes highly
modulated voice is carried by a wealth of electronic spheres stabilized
with most different structures and dubious shady beats.
this album significantly shows geneviéve pasquier's evolution in
composition, interpretation and sound mastering. an intriguing, elegant
and seducing sonic wallpaper, fluctuating
from tender-hearted noblesse to adroit virtuosity and speaking to
listeners' feelings between positive affirmation and dark layers of
melancholy. regarde le bulles dancer - watch the bubbles dancing!
