    EP07: Howler

    Hanté par le cri rauque des singes hurleurs et l'artificialité du vocodeur, ce titre bref engage à suivre la piste animale, tandis que son pendant filmique, hanté par la violence sourde de l'orientalisme pictural, guide le regard vers une appréhension nouvelle de l'art et des rapports de force qu'il engage.

    Haunted by the hoarse cries of howling monkeys and the artificiality of the vocoder, this brief title invites us to follow the animal trail, while its filmic counterpart, pervaded by the muted violence of pictorial orientalism, guides our gaze towards a new apprehension of art and the power relations it engages.

    EP06: Palm Wine

    Segment le plus dĂ©libĂ©rĂ©ment kitsch dans son exotisme de pacotille, ce titre aux sons vintage et au noir et blanc granuleux conte le glissement de l’ivresse joyeuse du vin de palme Ă  l’obscĂ©nitĂ© de l’exploitation de l’huile de palme, mauvais rĂȘve tropical de notre temps.

    The most deliberately kitsch segment in its cheap exoticism, this track with its vintage sound and grainy black and white picture tells the story of the transition from the joyful intoxication of palm wine to the obscenity of palm oil exploitation, a tropical nightmare of our time.

    EP05: "Kaplan Redux"

    NĂ© du souffle d’un harmonium usĂ©, ce nouvel extrait de “Sleeper Hits : Tropical Abstractions” explore en trois temps - temps de la valse, et temps du dĂ©coupage cinĂ©matographique - la question de l’identitĂ© et de son rĂ©vĂ©lateur qu’est l'Ɠuvre artistique. Librement inspirĂ© du film “North By Northwest” de Hitchcock, “Kaplan Redux” rejoue Ă  sa maniĂšre l’errance du personnage fantoche de George Kaplan au sein d’un territoire porteur de mĂ©tamorphoses essentielles.

    Born of the breath of a worn harmonium, this new extract from "Sleeper Hits : Tropical Abstractions" explores in three steps - the steps of a waltz, and the steps of the cinematic cut - the theme of identity and its revelation in the artistic work. Freely inspired by Hitchcock's "North By Northwest", "Kaplan Redux" re-enacts in its own way the wanderings of George Kaplan's ghostly character in a territory that is the bearer of essential metamorphoses.

    EP04: "What Doesn't Kill You"

    Morceau d’ouverture du projet cinĂ©matographique et musical “Sleeper Hits : Tropical Abstractions”, “What Doesn’t Kill You” se prĂ©sente comme la naissance d’un monde, la genĂšse de l’univers harmonique, visuel et symbolique Ă  venir.

    Exploration de l’identitĂ©, du processus crĂ©atif et de la rĂ©silience, ce segment alangui joue d’un contrepoint fort entre le fil narratif de la chanson, portĂ© par l’idĂ©e d’une nouvelle naissance, et les fenĂȘtres du film qui s’ouvrent sur une sĂ©rie de mondes Ă  la minutie troublante.

    The opening track of the cinematic and musical project "Sleeper Hits : Tropical Abstractions", "What Doesn't Kill You" appears as the birth of a world, the genesis of the harmonic, visual and symbolic universe to come.

    An exploration of identity, of the creative process and of resilience, this languid segment sets up a strong counterpoint between the narrative thread of the song, carried by the idea of a new birth, and the windows of the film, which open onto a series of worlds of unsettling detail.

    EP01: “Night of the Lost Explorers”

    PiĂšce maĂźtresse de Sleeper Hits : Tropical Abstractions, d’une durĂ©e de 12 minutes, “Night Of The Lost Explorers” invite Ă  une plongĂ©e sensorielle dans un monde englouti.

    L’explorateur, personnage romanesque destinĂ© Ă  glorifier la geste de la colonisation se tient, invisible, au centre de ce poĂšme cinĂ©matographique et musical, figure symbolique d’un esprit d’aventure aux consĂ©quences funestes. Car le rĂȘve d’un Ă©den tropical vire au cauchemar, dans un clair-obscur bleu nuit qui fait Ă©cho aux pĂ©riples terrifiants d’Au Coeur des tĂ©nĂšbres ou de La Nuit du Chasseur.

    “Night Of The Lost Explorers" is the centerpiece of Sleeper Hits : Tropical Abstractions. Lasting 12 minutes, it invites us to a sensory dive into a sunken world.

    The explorer, a romantic character intended to glorify the story of colonization stands, invisible, at the center of this cinematographic and musical poem, symbolizing a spirit of adventure with disastrous consequences. For the dream of a tropical Eden turns into a nightmare, in a midnight blue chiaroscuro that echoes the terrifying journeys of Heart of Darkness or The Night of the Hunter.
