Jean-Cohen Solal

Featuring the sounds of the French jazz flautist鈥檚 audacious 1973 genre-bending album Captain Tarthopom. Plus, neoclassical ambient, experimental rap and apocalyptic folk rock.

Featuring the sounds of the French jazz flautist鈥檚 audacious 1973 genre-bending album Captain Tarthopom. Showcasing Solal鈥檚 incredible skills as an arranger and improviser as well as a tremendously expressive flutist, it鈥檚 no wonder that he famously said in a 1972 interview, 鈥淚 express feelings more easily with the flute than with language鈥�. Captain Tarthopom is a meeting between psychedelic and progressive rock sensibility with the potent influence of avant-garde and classical ideas. Along with flute, the album is a jubilant blend of roaring bass, operatic vocals, pulsing organs and triumphant brass sections.

Plus, gorgeous neoclassical ambient scores for dance theatre from A Winged Victory For The Sullen, anthemic experimental rap from London-based duo XVOTO and apocalyptic English folk rock inspired by love and death.
