(2025) Univers Zero - Live At The Triton 2009 [FLAC]
In 2009, the Triton venue (near Paris, France) was sold out to celebrate the 35th anniversary of Univers Zero, an iconic band of the Rock in Opposition movement. These two exceptional concerts highlighted a radical and unique style of music, at the crossroads of new music and chamber rock, skilfully blending acoustic and electric instruments, as heard on the cult album ‘Ceux du Dehors’. Around Daniel Denis (drums), Michel Berckmans (oboe, bassoon), and Andy Kirk (keyboards and guitar), three historical figures of the group, complemented by four other talented musicians, offered an intense multimedia show, intertwining a condensed version of key pieces from the repertoire with more recent compositions. Recorded live in 2009 and released just days ago, the album is a well-produced and confidently-performed set that includes three pieces from the group’s early years and three more recent compositions. The newer selections align well in structure and tone with the older works. One of the main draws of pre-90s Univers Zero is its raw, dark neo-classical energy. Combining the reeds and strings of a chamber outfit with the keyboards, bass and drums of a rock band, Univers Zero carved a distinctive niche. Here, that energy remains in a somewhat toned-down form, partially replaced by finesse. Indeed, Pierre Chevalier adds clever piano motifs to classic tracks such as Présage that are almost playful but fit contextually and rhythmically. Toujours Plus à l’Est, an underappreciated track from the Crawling Wind EP, provides lighter, almost Medieval flare. The album closes with a 17-minute performance of Dense, with shifting time signatures and ominous low-end droning that make for an engaging finale. — avantmusicnews.com
