Puce Moment

(2013, Tsunami Addiction) France.

Puce Moment is a new project by Nico and Penelope from the french band Cercueil.

It is an electro-ambient music, sometimes drone, with amazing ambiences.

It is indeed a kind of music I’m not familiar with, I just know a couple Autechre’s ambient’s albums.

“Puce Moment” requires to be focused and I came back to the record several time.

I have to admit that my grindcore-heart needs a rhythmic section to carry a song I may fall in love with.

I liked (Drive) with its organic synthesizers (terrific at 2:34) and I appreciate the vocal layers. The theme played on the synths is amazing too.

I enjoyed Slw Dwn for the same reasons.

I found interesting that external rhythm which comes out of Video Dada here and there.

The part that rises at 4:33 in Legacy is a success.

Some good songs !
