Architects 04:34
Architects Weak hands on the steering wheel this place really looks pristine come....tight don't... fight guilt might disappear it won't interfere architects of our memories empty space in our diaries o dangerous womb cast a spell on doom all i'm saving now rests in a sea of love... touch me in the sand make it our dream land is it hard to see.... what you did to me ? all controls to red I burn pictures instead if that's all there is...
2.
Bone 02:44
Bone Crush Valyrian steel reinvent the wheel when you need a bone let yourself be known I won, I won let yourself... I won.... suck away the blood make a giant flood let the children play don't care what they say... I won, I won don't care what they say... I won.... don't care what they say.... watch us now seamlessly collapse and time can't decide the lapse divide.

Don't talk to me (Oh I forget...) don't talk to me and that's how it'll always be ignore what your lover said / just like when I first fled sleep in your killer's bed / that's not how you were bred don't talk to me and that's how it'll always be get to that coward's head / I'll make that body bleed ever wished I was dead ? / Poor execution speed shattered in sorry smiles ! bury unwanted files ! when will stars re-align ?
4.
Noone will ever know what it was all about Coffee spilled on brand new floors new hole drilled in the wrong wall reinvent these blinds in grey is that such a weird thing.... to say ? I've known ever since your last call mess with our careful protocol your absence without leave (is) wrong time for a make believe I've heard of the bad news what are you so scared to lose ? and now run long-distance accept it's good riddance nights in fancy hotels have lots of stories to tell

Michigan speedway Touch your scars in your car businessmen feed me lies In our bed push me hard you blame it on yourself again and you don't talk to me, don't talk to me, don't talk to me you blame it on yourself again and you don't talk to me, don't talk to me, don't talk to me blame it on yourself again laying me deliciously you blame it on yourself again crashing down excessively

about

(EN)

Walking on fire. This imminent, threatening danger. The risk-taking. Five tracks to reshape the urgency of a secret, chaotic and schizophrenic journey.

1. "Architects" : Backed by martial yet fluid rhythms, crystalline arpeggi are driven by a velvety but muscular bass, in an epic and nevertheless simple indie-pop melodrama with a twist. (official video on YouTube : www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wrj39dVkhY)

2. "Bone" : Fragile notes shelled in clusters form a soft red carpet for this introspective, unscrupulous down-tempo piece. (official video on YouTube)

3. "Don't talk to me" : A swaying structure, blending analogue and electronic elements, is methodically set up before facing waves in the shape of a messy choir and repetitive motives which insist in order to emphasize the disturbing alienating message distilled on the surface.

4. "No one will ever know what it was all about": An uncompromising and well-oiled rollercoaster which interweaves aerial riffs and a private, intimate and contemplative dialogue.

5. "Michigan speedway": a multidimensional, destructured journey. Break to rebuild, and try to make sense out of everything. The guilt complex scrapes the sounds, modifies the impressions and create a sensation of brutal strangeness.


MAPS OF JUPITER is the new flagship of Michel Malégeant- also guitarist in CABALE (noise-rock trio) and songwriter behind DESMOND KORMA (folk / indie pop), previously founding member of MOONMAN and THE UNLIKELY ORCHESTRA (4 albums released on Greed Recordings between 2003 and 2012). Twisted electronic beats fuel a weirdly familiar taste for delayed arpeggi, creating a dense new kind of futuristic songwriting.

(FR)

Marcher sur le feu. Le danger imminent, menaçant. La prise de risques. Cinq titres pour reconstituer l'urgence d'un parcours secret, chaotique et schizophrène.

1.« Architects » : Sur une rythmique martiale mais fluide, des arpèges cristallins se laissent porter par une basse veloutée mais musclée, dans un mélodrame indie-pop chatoyant et pourtant simple dans le geste. (clip sur Youtube : www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wrj39dVkhY)

2.« Bone » : Les notes égrenées par grappes forment un tapis rouge en velours pour ce morceau down-tempo introspectif, sans scrupules. (clip sur Youtube)

3.« Don't talk to me » : Une structure chaloupée, mi analogue, mi électronique, se met en place méthodiquement avant d'affronter des vagues en forme de chorale et de motifs répétitifs qui insistent, comme pour mieux s'imprégner du message aliénant distillé en surface.

4.« No one will ever know what it was all about » : Un grand-huit bien huilé dans lequel les riffs aériens s'entrechoquent avec un dialogue privé, intime et contemplatif.

5.« Michigan Speedway » : Un voyage multi-dimensionnel, destructuré. Casser pour reconstruire. Le complexe de culpabilité qui racle et abime les sons, modifie les impressions et imprime une sensation d'étrangeté brutale.

MAPS OF JUPITER est la nouvelle peau de Michel Malégeant - également guitariste au sein de CABALE (trio noise-rock) et auteur/compositeur/interprète de DESMOND KORMA (songwriting acoustique), précédemment membre fondateur de MOONMAN & THE UNLIKELY ORCHESTRA (4 albums parus sur Greed Recordings entre 2003 et 2012). Des rythmiques électroniques fouillées, complexes propulsent un goût affirmé pour les arpèges et le delay analogique, créant ainsi un nouveau genre de songwriting futuriste.
