Modern Cubism Les Plaintes D'Un Icare



MODERN CUBISM is the gathering of various personalities around a common project: the transposition of poetry into music.

The album dedicated to Charles BAUDELAIRE is the first piece of a triptych and is now available, featuring 13 tracks from "Les Fleurs du Mal" and other works. The band is already working on the second album around Geo NORGE poems.
Singing poetry on electronic music, only a few did dare it so far; it was an attractive challenge. To combine sounds and electronic melody, lyrical singing and texts brings an innovating dimension to contemporary electronic music, sometimes very bitter, very dark but in complete symbiosis with our artistic view.

Goldfrapp 7th Tree



Goldfrapp are a British electronic music group known for their visual theatrics and contribution to the popularization of electronic dance music. The band was formed in 1999 in London, England, and consists of Alison Goldfrapp (vocals/synthesizer) and Will Gregory (synthesizer).

Despite favourable reviews and a shortlisting for the Mercury Prize, the ambient sound of their 2000 debut album Felt Mountain was a commercial failure. Goldfrapp's second album Black Cherry, which incorporated glam rock and synthpop into their music, was released in 2003. The album experienced success across nightclubs in North America and influenced the dance-oriented sound of their third album Supernature. Supernature took Goldfrapp's work further into glam rock and dance music, and enjoyed international chart success. Supernature produced three number one U.S. dance singles, and was nominated for "Best Electronic/Dance Album" at the 49th Grammy Awards. Their most recent album, Seventh Tree, was released in 2008.
