This 1976 album was released by Neffesh Music, a project by Hungarian-born Parisian multi-instrumentalist Yochk'o Seffer, who went solo after playing for Magma and Zao. Zao member Jean-My Truong and backed by a string quartet led by Michele Margand, also of Zao. An ambitious style that combines elements of avant-garde, free, improvisation, rock, more, includes amazing A side "Heart" begins with a tense riff and drifts into a psychedelic style with distorted trumpets and fuzz bass, "Jonetsu (For Judith)" is avant-garde jazz with free-form tenor saxophone, overdubbed harmony vocals, synths, piano and "Orkana" is a highly experimental track that changes its development constantly with a synth solo in between. Side B is structured to emphasize the more avant-garde elements.
MagmaやZaoで活動した後、ソロに転じたハンガリー生まれのパリのマルチ楽器奏者 Yochk'o Sefferがソロ活動最初期にリリースしたプロジェクトNeffesh Musicによる76年作。ZaoのメンバーJean-My Truongに同じくZaoのMichele Margand率いる弦楽四重奏団がバックを務めています。前衛、フリー、即興、ロックの要素が組み合わされた意欲的な志向で、緊張感のあるリフから始まりトランペット、ファズベースが歪みながら漂いサイケデリック調の展開へ移っていく”Heart”、フリーフォームのテナー サックス、オーバーダブされたハーモニー ボーカル、シンセ、ピアノ等による前衛ジャズ”Jonetsu (For Judith)”、間にシンセソロを挟みながら休む間もなく展開を変えていく実験度高めの”Orkana”のA面が充実しています。B面ではより前衛的な要素を高めた構成になっています。
