Ok.Strangely it is same rate or even cheaper for me to order vinyl from some european countries (UK,Greece) than from my homeland,Finland.

Can someone recommend 2 out of the 3 latest batch?

[Pangolin]

Yeah...what is he up to these days?

For a while (?still) he was involved in classical Indian music:

..but this looks to be related to his involvement with Auroville that spacefreak mentioned.

[Udi Koomran]

wow I had no idea he is so musically active in India
Very interring
I'm curious

imho none of them is as good as "Dr Faust", "Hathor" or "Logos".

[Modry Effekt]

I don't like " Les Fous d'Or" at all.Operatic female voice, sounding like sniffy puppy,baby crying,madman laughing.

[Udi Koomran]

I dig 'Let's start'

I dig 'Let's start'

Me too.I'll take time to listen it more.And other Wakhevitch's as well.

Got the new bunch today. Top quality work. Even "Les fous d'or" comes in clear vinyl, just as the original...

I didn't know original was clear vinyl.It is sure trend nowadays.
I listened Lets' start a side twice.Too busy to flip.Great stuff.

I agree, these are his best.

I think side 1 of Let's Start is pretty good but then the rest gets bogged down with sweetness-and-light keyboard pieces with no depth musically or texturally. Les Fous d'Or and Nagual are too scattershot. Les Fous d'Or particularly loses lots of points for the track by that solo female vocalist trying desperately to sound weird. Even if the rest of the album had been great, this one track alone could seriously compromise everything. Just awful. And Etre Dieu is bloated, haphazard and too sparse, just about never gelling into anything aurally satisfying.

Yep, Dr. Faust, Hathor and Logos are his best. No question.

Here's something a little unexpected - new Wakhevitch album!

https://transversales.bandcamp.com/a...ye-of-the-bird

For a certain value of 'new' - recorded at the commune in 1999. Still, I did not think we would hear more from him.

Unfortunately, generic 80s new age style. Nothing like his previous works.
