New Album "Metamanoir"
out on Denovali on November 25th
 The bizarre Dark Jazz cabaret has opened again. Finally, after years of waiting, the 2nd full length of the sophisticated experimental collective from France will be released. It features vocals of Gaëlle Kerrien (YANN TIERSEN) and all lovers of DAVID LYNCH movies, artists like KILIMANJARO DARKJAZZ ENSEMBLE or BOHREN UND DER CLUB OF GORE and blue cigarette smoke in dark bars will exult again.
Métamanoir sees the band shift from their smooth, minimal and instrumental landscapes on the debut record Parole De Navarre to a more lively and rich sound. Always based upon improvisation and sound research, the solo parts of their music are now embodied by vocals.
The Quartet invited several musicians and singers to record, giving a phantomatic sound with oboe, clarinet, whitewashed drones popping out of the songs. The sheer chants of Zalie Bellacicco – who appeared on the debut album - the deep tone of Ronan Mac Erlaine and the crystal-clear voice of Gaëlle Kerrien (Yann Tiersen's singer on his last Mute album) interlaces with the still dark jazz of the band.
Always influenced by classic 50s cool jazz and the more contemporary noise and experimental styles, the Quartet and his guests built a dreamy card castle who swing and grow deeply rooted in fierce strangeness of David Lynch movies.
Métamanoir has been recorded in their native Britanny country, deep west of France, a land swept by climatic inconstancy fed by wind, rain and mystery. A place which gives the music an overwhelming but beautiful darkness.
Dale Cooper & the Dictaphones :
Gael Loison / Yannick Martin / Christophe Mevel.
featuring, Kristian Sarrau, Zalie Bellacicco, Gaelle Kerrien, François Lucas, Ronan Mac Erlaine, Cyril Pansal, Christophe Rocher

HF90 & ETIENNE DAHO
"... L’an dernier, alors qu’il présentait à Brest le spectacle du Condamné à mort de Jean Genet avec Jeanne Moreau, Etienne retrouva dans sa loge un mystérieux CD intitulé Mythomane par HF90. Ce duo breton, fan de l’album, en avait réalisé sa propre version, et Daho fut tellement séduit par le résultat qu’il a demandé à HF90 de retravailler deux titres avec les voix d’origine, l’occasion d’une rencontre de haute voltige avec passage d’un mur du son noisy qui donne une toute autre allure aux morceaux. " Christophe Comte
Mythomane (1978-1982)
The duo worked with french pop singer Etienne Daho on past few months. Two selected tracks will be released on monday 31st october on "Mythomane (1978/1982)". Mythomane was the first ever release by Etienne Daho back in 1981 featuring part of Marquis de Sade as backing band & produced by Jacno. 30 years after, a deluxe edition will include the album, rarities, demos, live and then... two cover versions by HF90 sung by Etienne Daho : "il ne dira pas" & "ton cinoche". woooooooh !

Monsieur Daho
featuring "Il ne dira pas" (HF90 version 2011),
En parallèle à la réédition de quatre albums clés de sa discographie, Etienne Daho a composé Monsieur Daho, une double compilation voulue comme un parcours intime en 40 titres choisis avec minutie par leur auteur. A l’opposé d’un best of impersonnel, il s’agit véritablement d’une playlist idéale regroupant ce qu’Etienne a voulu retenir de plus fort et de plus étonnant de ces premières trente années de carrière.
