| Description: | JB Dunckel, half of electronic iconic french band Air releases a new solo album.
Carbon, JB Dunckel??s first album in four years, considers the recent uncertainties that have befallen the planet
and explores diffuse visions of how a better future might look.
There are meditations on existential bliss (the airy, chiming Cristal Mind) and egotistical escapist fantasies (Sex
UFO, which can??t help but recall Jeff Bezos phallic rocket). Yet Carbon also considers the subversive pleasures of nihilism: revelling in man??s insignificance compared to the cosmos (the languid Space) and wondering
whether big tech might save us yet (the triumphalist Corporate Sunset). The album is a psychological test that
reveals the listener??s own outlook, says Dunckel ?? an artist who taught pop fans how to dream more than 20
years ago as half of the trailblazing cosmic pop duo Air.
Since then, he??s become a lauded, César-nominated composer for films such as François Ozon??s film Summer
of 85 . With Carbon, the accompanying images are entirely of the listener??s creation: ??I want them to feel ready
to travel in space,? he says. - 180g heavyweight vinyl
A 4 page booklet includes the lyrics. The first 50 copies ordered from Bandcamp were autographed in silver ink on page 3 of this insert.
A digital download is included with the purchase of this release on Bandcamp. However, there is no download card.
