ALBEDO 0.39

1 Pulstar typical intro, indescribable, everyone has it in their musical unconscious, a bit like that of 'Tubular Bells'; cascading, arrowing synth, violent percussion, a roaring drum; the piece which confirms to you that you are not like everyone else, a little above the ambient doldrums, ah that is relieving; the air grandiloquent with a chiseled synth sweetness. Extraterrestrial attacks, fireworks with the incorporated sound, in short the Vangelis sound with this majestic keyboard; it spins, ah at the first... o'clock... ok it's over; but it's still one of my best songs 2 Freefall follows, Japanese sound, typical little melody for traveling 3 Mare Tranquillitatis does the same with a more important space air than that you can't; we have just landed on the moon, we think of Mars, what can make us dream is put there; the voices of NASA astronauts during an Apollo memory mission 4 Main Sequence smacks of 'Beaubourg', an electronic musical search made of keyboards that jump, howl and a melody that sticks to it; you want some tablecloths, here you go; the side that I still don't like, too empirical, expressive, too crazy and lacking the melodic framework; the finale changes completely, an air of 'So Long Ago, So Clear', a bit of 'L'homme à la mer' to end with sensitivity, gifted Vangelis

5 Sword Of Orion for the musical sweetness, the unstoppable melody; delicacy, awakening of Nature, a musical bath at the time when we took our time and another varied piece 6 Alpha... speaking of melody, here's another unstoppable one; the rise, the roll of thunder pad, its symphonic explosion which rolls even louder, the head which moves suddenly, yes we are indeed ... at the head of a troop, of an army which inevitably goes to victory; a great symphonic musical fresco which shows that prog is everywhere; the finale at the majestic summit that does things to your back 7 Nucleogenesis, Parts 1 And 2 with an organ setting, Hey, Rick and Richard are there? Well a second title pure electronic research with variations, packets, notes which diffuse in the room going in all directions, a tad electro psyche, hold a new drawer; the finale on OLDFIELD, then the distinctive sound quickly returns with rolling drums; ah that phone call, what would he do these days instead? There I saw the telephone without a brand, just the one used to make calls, in short the decreasing end already 8 Albedo 0.39 to close this album in another space; Keith's voice to amplify the drift of our ship towards its destruction... no, I'm joking though; Albedo answer, answer; no, we're really reaching the end of the album.
