Earlier this month, French minimal synth pop artist, Nantes based Romain Lallement, together with the help of Maethelvin and Olivier Deniaud released his deeply affecting EP Aquiobonism under the LENPARROT moniker on the always reliable label Atelier Ciseaux. Using simple synthetic constructions and employing an unforgettable voice that quivers and pierces, the EP takes the listener in English through an intense, almost forlorn journey of self deprecation, heartbreak and regret. That’s not to say there are not lighter sides, as the latest hope laden single ‘Gena’ attests. There are only a few vinyl copies left folks so if you like the three tracks, the aforementioned ‘Gena’, the celestially dark escapism of ‘Les yeux en cavale’ and the slow drive of ‘A Fake Prophet’ grab it here. Two great videos accompany two of the tracks as well.
