Label: Lo Recordings

Description:

Electronic disco, full of haunting vocals, warped lyrics, twisted yet melodic electronics and crisp disco beats.

In 2004 Aphex Twin’s Rephlex label released an album by Black Devil called Disco Club, a re-issue of a long lost supposedly ‘italo disco’ classic from 1978. Given it’s absurdly ‘modern’ sound many doubted it’s authenticity, some even suggesting that it was a collaboration between Richard James and Luke Vibert.The real story is stranger still.  The album is actually the work of obscure French producer Bernard Fevre known only for his incredibly rare electronic masterpiece ‘The Strange World of Bernard Fevre’ and the even rarer ‘Earthmessage ‘ as sampled by the Chemical Brothers on ‘Got Glint?’ . The Disco Club’s music has also appeared on Grand Theft Auto IV. 

Nearly 30 years after the first album  this ‘extremely rare disco masterpiece’, got a follow up in the form of '28 After' wth the world’s hottest electronic and dance producers taking us an epic journey into the deepest electronic disco, full of haunting vocals, warped lyrics, twisted yet melodic electronics and crisp disco beats.

Now there is more from the French genius. In 1975 before the release of the first Black Devil Disco Club album, Bernard Fevre released an album called ‘The Strange World Of Bernard Fevre’ made up of quirky, cosmic library music. The release we have features new mixes of the original tracks along with previously unheard compositions. So crisp and inventive are the electronics, so haunting and eternal the melodies, it is as if this music has always existed.

If this is your first entrance into ‘The Strange World Of Bernard Fevre’ then I wish you well, deep joy awaits you but first a warning: this music really is a strong narcotic and should never be listened to whilst operating heavy machinery.
