This limited edition 7" EP follows the acclaimed double vinyl release of Aksak Maboul's 'Figures' (released May 22, 2020), which is the legendary experimental pop band's first true new album in decades. These four tracks are remixes, which do not appear as such on the album. They expand the imaginative world of the 'Figures' album, with its unique instrumentation, sound collages, and diverse and enigmatic atmospheres. "Tout A Une Fin (Short)" A tight 3-minute track comprising a song part (in which Véronique Vincent's voice executes sinuous variations around the words of the title) and a section of electronic, rock, and orchestral instrumentation rising to a wild, crescendoing finale. "Blaue Bleistift" Unveiling some of the new LP's most electronic and experimental aspects, with its interlocking keyboard lines and sound collages. A kind of mysterious and ambient cousin to Aksak Maboul's Saure Gurke? "C'est Charles (Edit)" An edited version of a song that ends with the sound of a crowd chanting slogans ("What we want... Is...") "Silent Silhouet" This almost instrumental track perhaps evokes a kind of electronic tango, or a dream scene in a Fellini film?
