Le Philosophe, by Arsule

Le Philosophe

by Arsule

supported by

rocketredfern surely the nutcracker suite of DS.
it has the drama of a stage play score in miniature, conjuring maybe John Dee bent over an alembic in his cramped, dark study.
fantastic Favorite track: Face aux secrets de la Terre.

Maurice Chaloupier Whimsical and poignant in equal measure, a fantastic album showcasing everything beautiful about Arsule. Favorite track: L'alambic brisé.

MarsDragoner Peaceful medieval renditions with a dash of whimsical spirits dancing around the study. Maybe not the most innovative release of its kind but well arranged olden invocations of the mind. Favorite track: L'interminable étude.

about

This album is dedicated to my love, my companion and brother in arms Ferïn. Without him I could not have reached the serenity necessary to the elaboration of this musical work. Thank you for this light brought to my daily life.

I imagined this album as an opening towards something else, it is in no way a final point. It constitutes an important stone of the construction of my being.

"Le Philosophe", by the strange springs of the destiny, also echoes another album, that of Werna Wolf "La Nuit des Magiciens". Our approach is very different, but when we realized the similarities of what we were preparing, without having consulted each other at first, releasing our two albums on the same day was an evidence, in order to link them symbolically. As if by a game of mirrors, which would reveal two realities, the tracks answer each other to tell a new story.

Cet album est dédié à mon amour, mon compagnon et frère d'armes Ferïn. Sans lui je n'aurai pas pu atteindre la sérénité nécessaire à l'élaboration de cette œuvre musicale. Merci pour cette lumière apportée au quotidien.

J'ai imaginé cet album comme une ouverture vers autre chose, il ne s'agit en aucun cas d'un point final. Il constitue une pierre importante de la construction de mon être.

"Le Philosophe", par les ressorts étranges du destin, fait aussi écho à un autre album, celui de Werna Wolf "La Nuit des Magiciens". Notre approche est très différente, mais quand nous nous sommes rendus compte des similitudes de ce que nous préparions, sans nous être concertés au départ, sortir nos deux albums le même jour était une évidence, afin de les lier symboliquement. Comme par un jeu de miroir, qui dévoilerait deux réalités, les pistes se répondent pour raconter une nouvelle histoire.

I first heard of Ghoëst when the demos started popping up in everyone's end of year lists, and listening to this the hype is 100% justified. This demo is a whole journey: atmospheric, focused and surprisingly hooky in places. Really great stuff. lichdom
