Déjà Si Mort
Déjà si mort is a manifesto of inconsolability. The eponymous title track is deeply moving. At its core lies a female voice of disarming authenticity, permeable and vulnerable. This creates an immense emotional density: pain that is not staged, but lived. This is underpinned by throbbing analogue drums, whose stoic pulse carries the almost liturgical synthesizer motif. The second track responds in its own way. And in general, Distoromance do things their own way – they sound like no one else.
