‘Histoires de France’ is the band’s fifth studio album and it was originally released in 1996 by the Brazilian label ‘Museum Obscuro’.
It was a follow up to the band first compilation "Days of Creation", published one year before by Cri du Chat Disques (Brazil), introducing the band to the Sao Paolo dark cold minimal wave audience. The album titles was a sort of ‘private joke’ to the overseas fans of the band. It's a second degree reading of 50's school books. Excerpts from lessons, resumes, and artworks recreate the mood of a fantasmatic Middle Age.
The fourteen tracks all all based on older versions, then published on very limited edition tapes, now true collector’s items, released in the early years of the band, around the period of time, when the project’s first 12" and album "Cathédrale" was released. ‘Histoires de France’ is a return to more minimal music and a rendition to historical keyboards, SIEL Opéra 6, Elex, Casio VL T etc…
This brand new edition, enhanced, offers the complete album and a full-length bonus CD, gathering the demo versions of all tracks, giving the possibility to hear the evolving, the sonic or structural transformations of each track, to compare the early raw versions (direct two track recordings) with the often very different final versions!
