[uprGOLD01] Discipline

by BLIND DELON

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Blind Delon livre un premier album chargé d’une énergie sombre et d’un lyrisme profond, audacieux. Happée par la noirceur du monde actuel, cette matière sonore rigide mais vivante, révèle définitivement une hybridation puissante entre sons organiques et synthétiques. Les textes et voix, assurés par Mathis Kolkoz le fondateur et chanteur du groupe, mais également les artistes invités sur cet enregistrement (Kris Baha, Lapse Of Reason, DJ Varsovie), scandent une plainte mystique et dansante, comme une incantation. D’autres amis du groupe sont également présents sur certains morceaux, comme I Hate Models ou Arabian Panther.

    Les nombreuses respirations ambient, chimiquement sensorielles, agissent comme des rêveries analogiques, artefact d’une humanité corrompue et révolue. En travaillant les détails de leurs sons, parfois à la limite de l’habillage et du design sonore, le groupe parvient à nous communiquer un univers qui lui est propre, parfois dérangeant, toujours puissant. Il y a autant de synthwave dans ce Blind Delon que de références aux musiques amplifiées des années 70 et début 80. C’est grâce à cette base saine que l’album parvient à se tailler une identité tout particulière.

    Pour apprécier « Discipline » on doit s’installer confortablement, se munir d’un casque d’écoute et se plonger les yeux clos dans cette odyssée. On en ressort bousculé, avec l’envie de secouer son corps, l’envie d’extérioriser sa fureur, sa révolte, sa jouissance. Un album mature, très riche, qui innove et rompt de manière heureuse avec les précédentes productions du groupe.

about

Founded in 2016 by the french artist Mathis Kolkoz, Blind Delon draws his energy from the cold and synthwave references: ancient synthesizers, icy bass lines and black romanticism, the ingredients of a recipe that combines raw elegance and pure melancholy. In the line of Boy Harsher, Poison Point or The Soft Moon, they immortalize the Post-Punk ideal and elevate it to an invulnerable absolute.
We are very proud today to announce this real masterpiece DISCIPLINE!

Blind Delon’s first album is laced with a dark energy and a daring and deep lyricism. In the darkness of today’s world, the sound material, at the same time rigid and alive, reveals a powerful encounter between organic and synthetic sounds.Mathis Kolkoz, the founder and singer of the group, as well as the invited artists (Kris Baha, Lapse of reason, DJ Varsovie) carry the lyrics and voices. Like chants, the dance and mystical music are close to incantation. Friends of the group, I Hate Models and Arabian Panther, are also guests on a couple of the tunes.The band builds a sensory atmosphere, an analogical reverie, an artefact for a corrupt and aging humanity. By working all the details, sometimes at the edge of sound design and sound decor, the group invites us in a world at once personal, sometimes disturbing but always powerful. This album carries references to amplified music from the 70’s and early 80’s as well as synthwave. These references carve the album’s strong identity.

To fully appreciate « Discipline », make yourself comfortable, slip on your headphones, close your eyes to start the voyage. One might emerge shaken, filled with the desire to move, to externalize anger, revolt, and pleasure. Blind Delon explores a new direction in this rich and mature album."
