Les Sourdes Oreilles (The Deaf Ears), is the next generation analog cinematic music from the 21 century.

Following the sound of 70’s cinematic jazz funk, this first 300 X 12″ from Cosmic Analog Ensemble is the new My Bags emergency hammer glass breaker. Designed like a ’70s movie soundtrack Graal, the album is a future now crate digging target. illustrated by the perfect hijacking artwork of Jerk 45, built like a narrative scenario, scene after scene, each composition deploys uniqueness. The album’s compositions depict a rich range of situations, moods, and intrigue.

Brilliantly composed, produced and interpreted by Charif Megarbane, playing all instruments, track after track, each song is a one man piece of art. Chiseled drum breaks, evocative bass and stirring melodies are a part of a bigger plan, sprinkled with subtle sound effects. “Les Sourdes Oreilles” is a long artisanal goldsmith work, cooking occidental classic jazz funk tradition into an afro oriental kitchen. It’s what make this release so awesome, unique and necessary to our deaf ears. This is a heavy rare groove material.

As you can imagine looking to the cover, this is all about legendary cinematic jazz funk, in the continuum of US, Italian and French composers of the ’70s like François de Roubaix, Piero Piccioni, David Axelrod, Piero Umiliani, Galt Mcdermot, Alain Goraguer, Janko Nilovic…

The red translucent vinyl comes with an A2 (59,4x42cm) poster dedicated to the artwork and its author Jerk 45. A nice way to give an extra life to a beautiful cover. And it will be like this for all the next records to come!
