    Really great album in the same mood as Nébu. Thank you Nick for the re-post. Can you suggest some more recent works of this collective? It seems that St Jak doesn't record anymore but Jean Derome and René Lucier are still active. I feel that they work in a different way now. Do you know for exemple "Fin du Travail" by René Lucier, in this album there are several members of Nébu including St Jak, Mathieu Léger and Jean Derome?

    I don't have Fin Du Travail. Lussier and Derome have been very productive for a long time in many collaborations, and most of the Ambiances Magnetique releases are kept active, but I haven't kept up with much of it.

    Thank you Nick I have the feeling that their more recent music is less distinctive but I will try "fin du travail" because it have been recorded in 1983, closer to Nébu and Oeuvralgique. Oeuvralgique is really great, between jazz, introspective and contemporary, thank again. Hope you will post soon another pianist in a very different way: Siegfried Kessler solaire.
