POLE  0011


1975

HERE'S THE SUPER RARE FRENCH KOSMICHE KILLER, COME FLY WITH ME, BY THE MYSTERIOUS MELODY. ALL TRACKS ARE CREDITED TO THIS PSEUDONYMOUS ARTIST. RECORDED AT THE INFAMOUSLY LEFTFIELD STUDIO DU CHESNAY, PARIS IN NOVEMBER 1975 UNDER THE DIRECTION OF ELECTRONIC AVANT GARDENER, BESSOMBES WHO BEGAN THE DUAL LABEL POLE/TAPIOCA IN ORDER TO PRODUCE MUSIC OF EXCELLENCE WITHOUT COMPROMISE. BESSOMBES OF COURSE, GAVE THE WORLD HIS FABULOUSLY TRIPPY LIBRA SCORE IN 1976, FULL OF DARKLY RENDERED, EFFECTS LADEN, PSYCHEDELIC GROOVES. LATER, HE RECORDED SOME OF HIS FINEST ELECTRONIC WORKS ON THE MUCH OVERLOOKED RCA MEDIA LIBRARIES, BEFORE CREATING ANOTHER ELECTRONICS PROJECT, HYDRAVION WHICH TOOK THE COSMIC ROCK SCENE FURTHER THAN MOST MORE POPULAR ARTISTS. SIGNIFICANTLY INFLUENCED BY STOCKHAUSEN AND XENAKIS, BESSOMBES ALWAYS PUSHED THE ENVELOPE IN TERMS OF ORCHESTRATION AND AMONGST HIS CATALOGUE, THIS LP REMAINS ONE OF THE FINEST DOCUMENTS DEMONSTRATING THE MAN'S GENIUS & IMAGINATION. FULL OF COMPLEX SYNTHESISER ORCHESTRATIONS, THE MUSIC SHIMMERS AND AT OTHER TIMES THROBS, CREATING WOOZY, DARK TEXTURES AND AT TIMES, MENACING ATMOSHERES GETTING CLOSE TO THE WORK OF DAVID VORHAUS AND THE WHITE NOISE. UK LIBRARY SESSION MAN, SIMON PARKS, WHO CREATED FABULOUSLY HEAVY ELECTRO FOR DE WOLFE, [HEARD ON ROMERO'S ZOMBIE SCORES] CREDITS BESSOMBES AS HIS PERSONAL MENTOR. THIS IS CLEARLY THE HEAVY END OF DARK, OOZY PROTO-TECHNO AND WOULD APPEAL TO LOVERS OF THE EARLY DETROIT SOUND. BESSOMBES SECOND LP, ON HIS OWN SUPER OBSCURE & COLLECTABLE LABEL, POLE IS FAR MORE OUT THERE THAN HIS OTHER WORK WHICH MAKES IT EVER MORE UNIQUE. THE COVER SHOWN ALSO FEATURES THE WONDERFUL CUT & PASTE STYLIZED ART WORK OF UNDERGROUND TAG TEAM JACQUES MARVIN & SAM ALMOSNI.
