Despite the relatively low DR, SQ on this one is excellent!
(Bought it today on ProStudioMasters)

This time the DR is exceptional, so is the Sound Quality!
Heard this album recently released was actually recorded in 1998, in Brittany.
The crystalline harp and voice of Kristen Noguès mixing with John Surnam’s sax and clarinet.
But clearly Brittany (I have ancestors there) does also greatly contribute to this album, bringing its mist and mysteries everywhere between the notes of the two musicians.

Hard to find, neither on Qobuz nor on Tidal.
I purchased the CD directly to the “Souffle Continu” label via Discogs last weekend and just received it today.
Note, a YouTube link also exists: https://youtu.be/6kcWk1KARuE?feature=shared

Although I’m not fond of reggae at all (as every reggae tune makes me hit the “Red Hot Chili Pepper” button like J.Darko would say), when listening to any track of this album, I’m getting hooked every time :heart_eyes:

To people who are “Techno Refractory” or “Electro Shy”, give this album a try. :wink:
The Sound Quality is excellent -audiophile oriented- and the music rather accessible.

Available on Qobuz and Tidal.
