简介
Favorite Recordings proudly presents this new official reissue package of Révolution Française, a French band produced by legendary obscure producer and musician, Jean-Pierre Massiera. Presenting the career of Jean-Pierre Massiera is not easy… First, because his ascension began in the early 60’s to fly to the vanishing point in the din of the 80’s. Then, because he was a genius, but also kind of a mad/freaky producer, playing and mixing with genres up to confusing them (and us…). Last, because even his identity was never easy to follow: Charlie Mike Sierra, Jean-Pierre Areisam, JPM and Co. Erik, The Horrific Child, Jesus, Les Maledictus Sound, or Visitors,… here is just a small part of all the personalities he wore. However, if we had to highlight the finest era of his path through music, it would obviously start in the mid 70’s, just after he moved to Antibes and started his famous studio. During this period, he would also release most the pieces that make him today one of the unconditional target for all Prog-Rock, Disco and Italo-Disco international collectors. Amongst others, some would mention Space Woman by Herman’s Rockett (1977), Love to Fly by Venus Gang (1978), or Human Egg (1978), which was reissued by Favorite Recordings (FVR050LP) in 2010. Through a catalog where it seems quite easy to get lost, we recently asked Massiera himself for more details about an occult 7inch called Bon baisers d’Antibes, which was supposed to include an amazing track called “Translocomotion”. In respond, we learned that it was only a promotional gift and that the track was also included in another 7inch called Discocorico. Additionally, we discovered the “Discocorico” song: a crazy disco-baroque version of the French anthem, which perfectly demonstrates how eccentric and outrageous Mr Massiera could be. Eager to add a touch of contemporary lunacy to this incredible package, we asked Psychemagik for a remix. As we presumed, the duo is huge fans of the mad-scientist and also provided a massive rendition of “Translocomotion”, perfectly respecting the original feeling, while giving it a modern House and Disco flavor. Finally, Massiera’s craziness happened to even woke up label mate Dwilt Sharpp, who delivers an exquisite House version of “Discocorico” to complete this 4 tracks 12inch release.
