Jungle? Quelle Jungle? CD

Since debuting in the early twenty-teens, Parisian producer Adrien Durrand has proved adept at bending musical styles and sounds. There's much of that on Jungle? Quelle Jungle?, his first album under the newly expanded Bon Voyage Organisation alias. Across the album's 13 tracks, you'll find seductive, Air style fusions of Chanson and electronic music, stylish post-punk '80s synth-pop, humid blends of Haitian rhythms and stoned Afro-disco, simmering spaced-out soundscapes, Sebastien Tellier style orchestrated Balearica, Italo-disco inspired sunrise shufflers and even a touch of experimental, out-there electronica that sounds like the Radiophonic Workshop jamming with African drum circles. In other words, Durrand inhabits his own sonic space and the resultant music is rarely less than wondrous.
