Out Of... le BLEU

leBLEU is an Edinburgh-based francophone space pop project. Various musicians are brought together by Phillip L.Holmes to create intelligent home listening. The results lie somewhere on the musical spectrum between Air and the Velvet Underground. Out of le Bleu is the groups debut full-length offering. Minimal arrangements dream of Brel, with gtr/elec. percussion and ersatz Gallic charm wafting cafe society/bohemian aromas around like an old neglected Weekend track. [Ptolemaic Terrascope] If you rounded up all the foppish Sarah bands from 1986 and told them that the real language to sing about life in was French (however tedious life in a bedsit, failing to get off with girls from the indie disco might be), then told them to tune their fucking guitars and develop an additional dimensions then, with 15 years trying, they might have ended up sounding half as good as Le Bleu [Jimmy Possession, Robots & Electronic Brains]
