Magnetique by ASTRAL WAVES |ARCDA49|


Recommended Posts

"Astral Waves, (aka DJ Zen) founder of Altar Records, has made you ''Magnetique.'' His third studio album.


a1719926862_2.jpg

With the unforgettable help of some amazing musician friends, this long term project was carefully crafted for over 4 years in studio.
A very long process where everything had a story.

Through 8 tracks featuring the collaborations and works of Suduaya and Sukhush, Androcell's track 'Efflorescence' remixed and interspersed with Zen's own 'La Danse des Elfes' and 'Deploie tes Ailes', ''Magnetique'' unfolds good track after track. Sufi's life & Merlin, mystical ambiances from Aureohm, Alwoods and Astral Woods.

Suntrap is as brilliant as it is in cue as it sounds. Astral Woods warms the mind when it comes to playing good morning tracks. Smooth powerful drones and 4/4 kicks all in balance upon rolling bass-lines.

Astral Waves has clearly defined his sound and selected highly talented artist's.
True to his electronic music roots and evolving his arrangement in a beautifully balanced way, ''Magnetique'' is centered in stride to it's depth.
With a finish that as though waking from a dream, make this one a deeply charming addition to your collection "

"Listening is a magnetic and strange thing, a creative force. The friends who listen to us are the ones we move toward, and we want to sit in their radius. When we are listened to, it creates us, makes us unfold and expand"

Merci Gabriel ! :)

 

By the way, the French titles for the tracks are lovely :

 

Emergence > Emergence (obvious but not to be taken for emergency)

 

Rêve éveillé > Awaken dream

 

Les liens du sang > Blood ties

 

Déploie tes ailes > Spread your wings

 

La Danse des elfes > The dance of the elves

 

Suntrap > y not french ? :(

 

Efflorescence > same word in French than in English. Refers to the process of mineral blooming. One the most beautiful and mysterious word of the French vocabulary.

 

L'Oiseau de l'aube > The bird from Dawn

 

EDIT2 : I'm having a listening of the album. Oh, man, it has this Jaïa-esque energy that can be felt in this legendary album :

You are a wonderful continuator of this rare morning vibe, of this skilled poetry of light and wonder. You master !

Thank you so much for your words, I'm touched

 

As per the 'Suntrap' title it refers to the original song already released on the first Alwoods album. So I kept it original although I should have named it 'Cataliseur de Soleil' or maybe 'Energie Solaire' ? (I don't like the "Piège a Soleil' translation ;)
