Une fille pétrifiée

by Mouchoir Étanche

supported by

Steven Ray An enchanting dream from start to finish, this album can inhabit the background and subtly influence your surroundings, or be listened to critically from beginning to end. Mysterious and exotic. Favorite track: Une fille pétrifiée.

Soft Seas Deeply unsettling. It reminds me of those AI generated photos which seem familiar at a glance, but, on closer inspection, nothing is identifiable.

about

"I am sitting in a garden, I haven't left the property in weeks, someone is dropping off food once a week. I haven't seen a human being in ages, I feel like a reverse Schroedinger cat - do I exist when nobody sees me? I must be somewhere in France but I don't remember. I have lost my consciousness again. When I wake up I hear a broken record looping somewhere in the mansion. A washed-out opera. Behind the trees I see the dilapidated hermaphrodite sculpture in a field of verdant nettles and fern. I hear gunshots far afield, aeroplanes in the sky, sirens on the main road.

When unconscious I dreamt of sitting on the Concorde observing the scarab blue ocean and iridescent clouds from above, an erstwhile receding memory. Sometimes I hear the organ of the nearby Renaissance Cathedral merging with the Russian Church bells.

I am hallucinating again. Someone's humming in the kitchen? Singing? A Radio? I overhear two young women talking about art galleries in the neighbour's garden. Bees attack, again…..again and again. The hairspray finally intoxicates them. An amphoric japanese voice is whispering in my head saying I will die soon. Someone (something?) bangs on the vases. The fountain's water turns dark red.

Fleur calls and says mum died. The funeral will be televised on tuesday. We opt for the synthetic choir for the service. The call is suddenly interrupted. Mold is slowly taking over the house.
I go back inside."

This is my absolute favorite album of all time, words can not even begin to describe how much I love it. It nails the concept of dementia as an album perfectly 100/10. I don't know if I could find anything better than this. rod

“Do you still dream in water?” she asks. He nods—“only when it rains inside.” Their words drift, slow like signal loss,, soft clicks between heartbeats. A drone hums overhead, its shadow stroking their faces. “Are we free now?” she whispers. He laughs, small, broken. “We’re just less afraid.” They share one headphone, listening to the city’s pulse— loops of breath, echoes of what could’ve been “Hold me,” she says. “I am,” he answers, “in the static.” magoski
