Brandon Burke Posted October 12, 2003 Report Posted October 12, 2003 (edited) To Brandon Burke: What's the Brigitte Fontaine/Art Ensemble recording like? I posted a query on this in Discography, but it received no responses. You may be the only one here who's heard this. I really love this record. To be honest, I put it down as 'October Listening' but it hasn't strayed very far from my turntble in several years. If you're at all familiar with Fontaine then you can expect her vocals over some very mellow groove-based AEoC. No drum kit but some varying hand drums. Engineered with a ton of reverb so it's got a hazy, almost dub-like psychedelic opium den vibe throughout. The title track alone is worth the money (and that's saying something since there is no US pressing). My reissue LP was $19. If you're totally unfamiliar with Brigitte Fontaine then I can tell you that she has a ridiculously sexy voice and sings in French. Her vocal style was the prototype for the confident, detatched eroticism of Laetitia Sadier (Stereolab). Hope that makes sense. I recommend it, man. It's a great record.

paul secor Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 Brandon and Chuck - Thanks, guys! Now that I have a sense of what it's like, I'll try and get hold of a copy. Quote
Brandon Burke Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 Brandon and Chuck - Thanks, guys! Now that I have a sense of what it's like, I'll try and get hold of a copy. I suggest you try either Dusty Groove, Other Music, Waterloo Records, or Amoeba Records. Seems like between the four of them someboy's gotta have it. In fact, there's a good chance it's on the 'employee picks' wall at each place. Quote
