Named after a metro station located in East Paris, Pointe du Lac originated in 2014 as the brainchild of analogue gear enthusiast Julien Lheuillier, joined shortly after by multi-instrumentalist Richard Francés, followed by Quentin Rollet on Saxophone a few years down the line. Les siphonophores des eaux froides et profondes de l'Arctique (“Siphonophores of the cold, deep Arctic waters”) is the project’s third studio album, the first one written as a three-piece as well as their first release on Hands in the Dark. Like the organisms the album title refers to, Pointe du Lac’s music is highly polymorphic and complex, using a subtle and distinctive blend of Electronica, Krautrock, Jazz and Kosmische as vessels for the band’s fantastic instrumental imaginary voyages. Compared to previous albums and EPs -which tended to suggest cosmic odysseys- this new cinematic outing is diving deep and intends to shed light on fascinating, mysterious and diverse creatures and their habitats. Supported by (paradoxically) warm and impeccable sonic forms, the exploration turns out to be an unsurprisingly expansive one, yet accessible and oddly familiar sounding. There is a sense of assurance and serenity in the French trio’s latest offering, the musicians mastery and open-ended approach to free ambient music lets their ideas flow and never stagnate. The narrative of this expedition is one that will be remembered long after the listening finishes.

Hands In The Dark Vinyl, CD & Tape

Hands In The Dark ist ein 2010 gegründetes, französisches Plattenlabel aus Besançon. Morgan und Onito trafen sich bei einer Party, entdeckten ihren gemeinsame Liebe für »unclassified« Musik und beschlossen ein Plattenlabel zu gründen. Ziemlich schnell ist ihre Idee in die Tat umgesetzt und fortan wird im DIY-Verfahren Musik von Lumerians, Death And Vanilla oder Co La in toller Verpackung von Liebhaber zu Liebhaber weitergereicht. Mehr gibt’s nicht zu erzählen und mehr soll auch gar nicht hinzugefügt werden: »We’re not special at all! So many label records do the same as we do.« Das reicht an Motivation.
