Cthulhu is a creature created by
H.P Lovercraft in the beginning of
the 20th century. Symbolized by a
computer generated voice in this
record, is comes back on earth to
brings the hell and desolation. With
the help of a Thaï prayer, the world
will be saved. This album is a
journey in the mystic world of H.P
Lovercraft but also sounds like a
warning to the future generations.
The music itself is a mix of rythms,
orchestral and electronic music,
sounds, voices in melodic
environment.
Cthulhu has been made between the
time I was Paris at Hillairet
street, and the time I moved to
Santeny the house I leave when I
write these lines. Two friends
participate to the album : Isabelle
and Amelie. I`ve worked a lot from
samples coming from stock music, and
samples I made myself. It is a
sample base album. I`ve re-used the
robot voice that was in Prophecy. It
is now my `trade mark` that sign my
style. This album has been designed
like a story to play on stage, like
an Opera. The narrator tells the
story and each piece of music is an
event.
The message of this album is not
that trivial. Cthulhu symbolize a
part of the world, a religion, and
the story is an allegory of what I
think will be the 3rd world war.
Maybe the last war?
Description :
In this introduction, the narrator,
exposes the meaning of the album.
With an orchestral mysterious
background the main themes are

ready...

Description :
This is one of the greatest song I\'ve
made. I use guitars, piano, choirs,
orchestra, and abstract noises at
the end. This song is in the style
of Prophecy Part3. It is a movie by
itself. The song progressively
change to a final explosion when
Cthulhu arrives for real.

A Beautifull orchestral piece with
full orchestra and choirs. Cthulhu
is here and stands. The world burns,

world. The end of the pieces some
crazy monks are coming from the deep
while the children\'s choir try to
resist...the hell is here : Agnus
Dei.

Incantations
- 4:41
Description :
This song is really frightening.
Based from the sounds from real
Voodoo celebrations, it is a pure
abstract music. It describes the
hell on hearth the total anarchy
with daemons and monsters killing
and dancing everywhere. Everything
is made in this song to create a
really weird atmosphere!

Description :
`Captain, our hero has found an old
Chinese prayer hidden in the
mountains. He had learned the power
of the ancients thru the
Necronomicon : the lost books of
secrets and demons. A procession of
women and children joined the battle
and the incantation started.``

Description :
Based on a piano theme I`ve made
when I was 15 years old, I`ve
re-arranged this piece with Enigma
in mind. I`ve used an old Thai month
and with help of the orchestra tried
to describe the procession of the
good against evil. As you can see
the 3 continents music have a role
in this album... Europe/US are
defeat by the Africa and saved by
Asia. Prophetic?

Description :
In this techno song with jungle
rhythms our heroes will fly off the
wings of gold . As you can see the
different voices in this album have
a role. The computer generated voice
is for Cthulhu, the real voice for
the hero and Cthulhu when he has
hypnotized Princess. The woman voice
is Princess of course.

Description :
We are at the end of this story. I
hope you ll read between the lines
and see how much this story and the
way it is played can be warning for
all of us. Today the demons have
changed their face. They talk at the
TV and sometime, they are loved by
the crowd. But they are still evil,
an enemy to light, an ally of the
powers of darkness, disruption, and
decay.
Europera
- 3:41
Description :
The final part of Cthulhu is a very
optimistic song with an Opera style
singer and a techno style. The Opera
voice has been totally
re-synthesized. Credit must be given
to Amelie Glenn who gave her voice
for this song.
