🎵🔌🎹🎤🎧 In the early ’80s, a propitious period for electronic sound experimentation, Martinique’s Claude Rodap recorded with his Frégate Orchestra, a now untraceable and untouchable album, Syn-Ka. Subsequently, only three additional tracks have come down to us, recorded between 1995 and 2000. The jack-of-all-trades multi-instrumentalist had tackled zouk and bèlè, and the set was finally released in 2016 as an EP on Dutch label Rush Hour. Bélétronic opens with Hiwa’s soaring electro-ti-bwa. Then it’s back to Paco’s mid-tempo, wacky harmonies on the B-side, served up on strings at will, before finishing with the aptly named electro-Zouklove.
Le début rappelle le chant danmyé “Hira Belgado”
En fait, la vidéo est une présentation des trois titres sous forme d’extraits. Et le premier titre est Hiwa… Je verrais bien que ce soit le même morceau ! L’EP est dispo sur BandCamp apparemment : https://clauderodap.bandcamp.com/album/beletronic?label=3306162657&tab=music
