Poirier, Romeo
Plage Arriere
A much needed repress of French ambient composer and lifeguard Roméo Poirier's cult debut record, 'Plage Arrière.' Released with updated artwork, by London imprint Kit Records. 'Plage Arrière' is a deep sea meditation on a constellation of Greek beaches across three islands. Trumpets, echo-clicks and Harold Budd-esque shimmer piano whirl together on these sand-caked missives, tumbled and re-engineered by their surroundings like seaglass. Poirier evokes the sub-aqeaous ambitions of Jürgen Müller, or Jan Jelinek inspecting a coral reef. Limited to 300 copies.
