Mr. Oizo - The Church (full album)

In french, we have a word :"quintessence". I think it fits this album well

Thierry Machuel : "Dark Like Me" : Afraid - Homesick Blues

Really fantastic writing for voices mixing several esthetics and technics in a striking way !

Winston Choi - Lenot: Oeuvres pour piano, Vol. 1

Jacques Lenot is appart in the musical word in Europe. Refusing to submit himself to  dogmas, instituions, fashion trendings or "musical systems", he has produced over the years a music often tough and austere, but also deeply coherent and wide in expression but with a particuliar fondness for a sort of nocturnal feeling, a mix of mystical contemplation, severe lucidity and elegant sadness.

Akira Nishimura - String Quartet No.2 "Pulse of the Lights"

i will quote myself : "wow, thank you so much for making me discovering this beautiful masterpiece ! that savagery and delicacy altogether make it wonderful to listen to ! and the musical writing is astonishingly efficient ! thank you again."

Enjoy !  

Beau Diakowicz - Things 15

He has his own world, and it's fascinating to wander through it. Sometimes you feel like dancing, other times like singing, but you never lost that feeling of deep and profound expression.

Georg Friedrich Haas - limited approximations

6 pianos and orchestra. All using very precise microtonal intonation. Giving us a thrill of amazement and excitation !

Philippe Manoury. Fragments pour un portrait

This music is like a long and mysterious ritual full of subtle colors and wild melodies !

Brian Ferneyhough - String Quartet n°2

When incredible complexity brings both entertainment and lyricism !

Gavin Bryars ‎- Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet

A simple concept can lead to beautiful musical moment.

"Thoughts In The Morning Time" // MonoNeon

Incredibly catchy and audacious at the same time !

Azumanga Daioh Opening Music

Light hearted, humorous music, and yet surprinsingly melancholic at times.

Ph. Manoury - Toccata pour piano

Proof that repeated notes and pianistical virtuosity can be used in a compelling way with the musical language of our time !

Heinz Holliger - Sequenzen uber Johannes I, 32 for Harp

Superb writing for the harp ! Delicates harmonies, subtles melodies, mysterious resonances, dancing rythms !

Marisol Jimenez

There's a kind of magical aura to this music, like a ritual performing in front of us without fully telling us what's going on. And you can't stop listening to it and being fascinated.

Phil is dancing, 80's style and it's great.

Ah... Philip Glass is such a troublesome composer to me, because he is so able to mix bad and good at the same time.... but here is the very very very good !

microtonality allows us to sing with nobility.

Because a noble mind and a noble heart prefer subtility even in violence.

Eight Lines

Clearly one of my favorite Steve Reich's work, especially the superb mix of canonical techniques and funky rythms. Plus, modal harmony doesn't hurt.
Thanks to ThePochaccos for putting the score along with the sound !

William Sheller

Delightful isn't it ?

Crop Circles

The word "wonderful" is meant to fit this music !

A Journey into the mysterious worlds of Boulez

I coul link this music to some parts of Les Cités Obscures a wonderful comic by B. Peeters and F. Shuiten.
