Guillaume CAZENAVE is a French composer and performer, right in the middle of his twenties. Despite his relative youth, the artist creates an unique and concession-free world, already extremely refined and coherent. With a few albums already in his bag, our man issues today "The Mediation Project One - Worship Scraped" (2003), a first part in a concept-series to come. Omnipresent lyrics deal with the drifting in conscience that Religion (And its icons) can provoke on a relatively fragile human-being. Accompanied by numerous musicians, Guillaume CAZENAVE performs an interesting kind of music that one could roughly situate between experimental pop and Progressive rock. No need then to look for any possible comparison, given this music’s unique style ! As captivating as disturbing, it alternates between ethereal synthesizer parts, tense sequences during which the vocal lines mingle, schizoid guitar lines and sudden uncontrolled explosions. All of this including also dissonant style, gothic ambiences, some jazzy interludes and even a few primal screams ! An unique program, isn’t it ?…
