Aquaserge - Deja-Vous? Music CD

2018 release. A well-kept secret until recently, Aquaserge has been a subterranean driving force in the international music scene. The band's members have also been involved with Tame Impala, Stereolab, Melody's Echo Chamber, Aksak Maboul and Acid Mothers Temple. With shades of psych rock, jazz, and French film music, they've been described as Os Mutantes meets Hot Rats era Zappa, and their hyper-imaginative pop sound takes on an even wilder dimension on stage. Déjà-Vous? ('you, already?') was created from recordings made during several shows in 2016 and 2017, for which the band was augmented by the 3-piece horn section that joins them on specific occasions. Déjà-Vous? contains live renditions of eight tracks: four from Laisse ça être, three from the band's previous releases, and an impromptu version of the jazz standard 'My Funny Valentine'. Most songs have been thoroughly rearranged for the occasion.
