Description
Get ready! After 3 singles, 1 EP, and 1 LP, French instrumental band LE CHIFFRE ORGAN-IZATION is back with their second long-player, "Illustration". The band features Alain Jullian, also known as Billy Coog or Mr. Le Chiffre, on organ, Alain Chapot (Number 9) on bass and mastering, and Alexandre Besson on drums and vocals, with Eric Pouchet (aka Eric Damod) on guitar.
After extensive touring across Europe, the band returned to the studio to create 12 tracks of new material and two covers. While remaining primarily instrumental, this record includes special guests: Arthur de Cossette, the recording and mixing engineer who helped bring their thoughts and commands to life, Cyril Cucumber from Woom Studio, who designed the cover and added flute to one track, and Eleonor Rochas, who contributed her fantastic voice to another.
LE CHIFFRE ORGAN-IZATION is proud to share this chapter of their story with friends and family and invite you to join them on the dance floor with their incredible gogo dancer Celia. "Illustration" pays homage to library music, a significant influence on their sound, and delivers a blend of psychedelic vibes, pop-jerk energy, and Hammond groove from France.
File under: Acid jazz, Soundtracks, Michel Magne, Michel Legrand, Hammond groove, James Taylor Quartet, Corduroy, Janko Nilovic, Pop Jerk, Big Boss Man.
