B-STOCK - Plastic Cover is broken - Music = Mint .... 3 years on, and after their first critically acclaimed album on Versatile, Five steps (aka Jonathan Fitoussi and Clemens Hourrière), who have been likened to the godfathers of the synthesizer genre (think Suzanne Cianni, François Bayle or Morton Subotnik and you re almost there!) are back with Espaces Timbrés a brand new episode in their exploration of the legendary modular synthesizer - The Buchla, specially crafted for Versatile Records. After 2 years of tireless work, ever pushing and furthering their musical research, Fitoussi and Hourrière reveal to us new territories, textures, sounds and feelings to explore with the help of the equally legendary I:Cube on mixing duties to add even more sonic reflections and mixing desk wizardry. This one s a hyper-jump into the future made possible through a machine from the past, giving birth to those most captivating of electronic mantras... dive in, the water s warm!
