I will enter the Markus Stock's Studio E for recording the second Alcest album from the 27th of July to mid August. The mix/mastering will be done by N. Xort in september at the Drudenhaus Studio.
 
This album will contain 6 tracks : 4 new ones and the 2 ones from "Le Secret" re-recorded. As for the total playing time, it will be around 55 min. The concept will change a bit from "Souvenirs...", since I am dealing with the usual Alcest subjects but this time using ocean's thematic as a metaphor. I have been inspired a lot by seaside romanticism these last times, it's strengh and mysteries and I wanted to use it as the main idea/imagery for the new album.
Musically expect something slightly different as well, more complex in the structures (two of the new songs are 10 minutes lenght), emotionally wider, with a lot of contrasts and dark blue soundscapes...
But obviously this is still 100% Alcest, with its typical ecstatic moments and deep nostalgia.

Also Winterhalter (Amesoeurs/Les Discrets/ex Peste Noire,..) will play drums on this recording.

The release date is planned for january 2010.

oh man, this is great news and everything you have in mind for the new cd sounds very interesting! I remember when I first heard Alcest's music I just thought "wow, this is such a different sound and yet its so familiar", it didn't take me long to look for that last one you put out! I really like that one, its probably one of my favorites! well have fun recording this new one and I'll be sure to look out for it when you release it! ok then, take care man!

..Ocean's thematic as a metaphor? Velvet Cacoon's Genevieve? I expect a really deep and nostalgic sound. Make me smile and cry since like you did with Le Secret. Might you come the next year to the Ethereal Fest of Catalonia? It would be a great news. :P
