Jean Piché - Heliograms

Review by paul goss

Heliograms by Jean Piché is a mesmerizing album that showcases the Canadian composer's mastery of electronic music. The album features ten tracks that are a blend of ambient, experimental, and classical music, creating a unique and immersive listening experience.

The album's opening track, "Tribal Dance," sets the tone for the rest of the album with its hypnotic beats and ethereal sounds. The following tracks, such as "Heliograms" and "Drones," continue to build on this dreamlike atmosphere, transporting the listener to another dimension.

Piché's use of electronic sounds and instruments is remarkable, and each track is carefully crafted to create a distinct mood and atmosphere. The use of classical instruments, such as the piano and strings, in tracks like "Sotto Voce" and "Euphoria" adds a layer of depth and emotion to the album.

One of the standout tracks on Heliograms is "L'Heure Bleue," which features haunting vocals by Marie-Danielle Parent. The combination of Parent's voice and Piché's electronic sounds creates a hauntingly beautiful track that is both eerie and enchanting.
