KARL HEINZ SCHAFER : LES GANTS BLANCS DU DIABLE OST
Ultra Limited reissue on Vadim.
Grading (Record/ Cover) : SS / SS
Description thanks to Vadimmusic Les Gants Blancs du Diable simply isn’t like other records. Its preciousness comes, first of all, from the fact that it was never re-edited
A drug for the senses, opening the doors wide into a fantasy world, shaped by unique musical forms: jazz tempos played on tablas and grooved with free form sitars, chords at the abyss’s very brink, held back by reassuringly rounded bass sounds, lightening electricity escaping from epileptic guitars, and the voice of an angel singing the colours of magic, existing only within this music.
Somewhere between feline jazz, crazed orchestral pop, opiate jerk and lunar funk, the music turns on its multiple charms, seemingly led by a longing for both violence and calm, the driving force behind the record’s dramatic power.
A power culminating in its two emblematic themes, Utopia and Couleurs, breathtaking and elegant melodies, casting a radiant light across all in their path.
A tragic beauty, somewhat reminiscent of the sombre notes of the La Planète Sauvage soundtrack, another hidden treasure from the 70s.
At the helm of this strange vessel we find a certain Karl-Heinz Schäfer, a discreet arranger of German origin, having led from the shadows of French studios (for Christophe, The Rockets and Claude Ciari amongst others...) and who would subsequently go on to writing other soundtracks, with varied success (La Grande Trouille, Zig Zig, L'Empreinte des Géants, Extérieur Nuit, Polar)"
