The only release from 1980 by the project of André Baldeck, a French multi-instrumentalist whose details remain unknown. It features tracks from several years of band-style performance, with all instruments performed by Baldeck himself, except for the percussionists. Starting with "Vibration De L'Espace - Air Du Temps" in which mild synths sway and entice you into a utopia, also includes quirky synth-pop track "Skylab" featuring electronics and a rhythm box, wired minimal piece "François Villon (1431-1489)" inspired by the poet François Villon, mysterious contrast between the majestic sounds of an organ and a Bolivian flute "Déserts", and ethnic track "Oasis," evoking Arabic influences. The entire album is worth listening to. Released by F.L.V.M., a collective that handles the production of self-produced records and has left numerous underrated pieces.

詳細不明の仏人マルチ奏者André Baldeckによるプロジェクト80年の唯一作。バンド形式で数年間活動していた楽曲を収録したもので、打楽器奏者以外は全て自演によるもの。ユートピアに誘い込むように柔らかなシンセがゆらゆらと迫る”Vibration De L'Espace"を筆頭に電気使いとリズムボックスによる変種シンセポップ”Skylab”、詩人François Villonにインスパイされたワイヤードミニマル電子曲”François Villon (1431-1489)”、荘厳なオルガンの響きとボリビアの笛による不思議なコントラスト”Déserts”、アラブを想起させるようなエスニックな楽曲”Oasis”まで全編聴き応えあります。セルフプロデュースしたレコードの製造を一手に引き受ける集団が運営し多数の傑作を生み出したF.L.V.M.からのリリース。
