THE REVIEW

You will never know, man, how lonely you will feel one day, now that you believed solitude would be over forever. You will never know, human, how much you will savor a steak the day after deciding to become a vegetarian. You can't even imagine, living being, how much noise you will hear now that your ears have gone deaf, how many colors you will see now that you are groping in the dark, how many smells you will perceive even with your nose closed. Even by straining your brain and trying to unleash your wild imagination, you wouldn't have predicted, multicellular organism, so much movement, now that you feel paralyzed. Sometimes the paradox reveals itself in all its charm, as in this album by St Germain. What does Miles Davis have to do with the Orbital? And Frank Zappa with Chet Baker? The Pizzicato Five with Milton do Nascimento? The Us3 with themselves?? Why put blueberry jam on a Milanese cutlet? Yet those who do it swear it's unmissable. Like this creation by Ludovic Navarre aka St Germain.
