(★) BLACK DEVIL DISCO CLUB (★)
In 1978, French composer and synthesiser pioneer Bernard Fèvre quietly released Disco Club under the name Black Devil, six hypnotic tracks built from analogue synthesizers, spectral vocals and cosmic disco. Too strange and too futuristic for its era, the record disappeared almost as quickly as it arrived, only to be rediscovered decades later by collectors and DJs who couldn't believe it had truly been made in the seventies.
Its reissue by Aphex Twin's Rephlex Records transformed Black Devil Disco Club into one of electronic music's defining cult acts, revealing a sound that had unknowingly anticipated Italo disco, synthwave and generations of underground dance music.
Fèvre's return brought a new chapter of acclaimed releases, expanding his singular world of dark disco, cinematic electronics and psychedelic synths through Lo Recordings, Alter K to name a few. Nearly fifty years after its creation, Black Devil Disco Club remains as mysterious and uncompromising as ever - a rare opportunity to experience one of electronic music's true visionaries, whose future was written long before the world was ready to hear it.
Something strange is waiting...
