Techno. She's in Paris, he's in Los Angeles. Their geographical separation could have sounded the death knell of Scratch Massive. She revitalized the duo that was formed fifteen years ago. Rooted culture, Maud Geffray (native of Saint-Nazaire) and Sebastian Chenut (Angers) come back in great shape, seven years after their last studio album Night of Dream , enriched by their solo escapades and their work for the cinema. This fourth album was recorded under the palm trees of Los Angeles and that is understood. It is brighter, even if the icy side remains. Garden of Love , which borrows its title from the poet William Blake, is an introspection on love, between sadness and hope. We love to lose ourselves, in a loop, in this atmospheric labyrinth, with the sweet voice of Maud Geffray (and other guests, like Léonie Pernet). Their techno based on analog synths, influenced by rap, hovers, but also hits, strong bass heavy ... A cocoon perfect for winter. (Nadine Boursier)
