Thierry Fervant is a French synthesizer player who debuted in 1972 with the album L’aube ne s’est pas and later released symphonic electronic works such as Seasons of Life and Blue Planet. This is his second album released in 1980. The album features a grand orchestral structure reminiscent of Kraut-electronics artists like Klaus Schulze, intertwined with a decadent sound similar to East Germany's Reinhard Lakomy. However, when listening to track A4—where 8-beat and 16-beat rhythms intertwine while maintaining a beat-down groove that allows for a cosmic interpretation—the closest reference in terms of imagery might be the raw cosmic vision of Egotrya, the obscure Italian electronic prog act that handled the electronics for disco legend Beppe Loda’s works.
Conditions are not so good, and comes clicky noises on several parts.
