SETNA - CYCLE I - 2007

This band was discovered several years ago when they released a small number of really short musical snippets via their webpage and everyone's zeuhl-radar went into overdrive. Mixing a classic zeuhl sound with an original slant, this features female voice, two keyboardists on Fender Rhodes and mini-Moog, soprano sax, bass and drums/percussion. Guests also appear, including James MacGaw (Magma, One Shot) on guitar. This has a quiet, insistant groove; it never really breaks into something that slays you hard, but, rather, draws you in via the over-all excellence and development of the entire album. Modern zeuhl doesn't get any better; highly recommended!

"This new French band has finally his first recording available, after several announcements & an increasing buzz around them. The music is influenced by Offering and the CD has only one long track divided into several sections. Classic line-up, with a superb female singer. Music ranges from dark to quiet, to cristal clear vocals; at the border of progressive, jazz, zeuhl, pop, atmospheric. A CD to be listened again & again to reveal its magic."
