A leading figure of French touch with his group Air, JB Dunckel has also been working independently for about twenty years, from soundtracks (François Ozon’s Summer of 85 in 2020) to electronic collaborations (with Jonathan Fitoussi on Miracles in 2019). This time, however, he’s recorded the album entirely on his own, with a single instrument: the piano.


Well, not really on his own, since he was communicating telepathically with his childhood piano teacher, who is no longer alive (hence the title Paranormal Musicality), and explains that the legacy of his teachers Ravel, Debussy, Chopin, and Glass can also be heard on the album. An exercise in style as much as an exercise in spiritual connection, the composition of the pieces was something between improvisation and meditation, “letting emotions, colours, and memories pass through my fingers.” The result is a pared-down record, with lovely moments like “Key Games”, which he describes as a pop song, the poignant “Spring Emotion”, and the funeral march “Melo Walk”. 18 tracks to listen to and connect with your feelings. © Smaël Bouaici/Qobuz
