Deep Forest were one of the first French electronics acts to have won a Grammy.
The next one after their triumph? Daft Punk.
During a 20 year career Deep Forest have worked with everyone from Peter Gabriel to Lokua Kanza, and many more. The project recently completed work on a new album, as composer Eric Mouquet explains.
"Composing a new album is always something special and quite a magical process. I compose and experiment in the studio for months, crafting sounds, taking notes, exploring new machines, playing, improvising and finally letting the music evolve without any pre-conceived idea. One day without any special reason, everything starts to make sense, the different ideas gather in a logical form and there it is: the finished, brand-new album."
New album 'EVO DEVO' is forthcoming, with Deep Forest set to play a one off London show at the Scala on June 10th. Before then, however, Clash is able to provide a special preview…
'Sings With The Birds' veers close to ambient climes, a slow exhalation of gentle euphoria that delights in the everyday.
Tune in now.
