Une Cartographie Idéale collects 12 gems from the Magnéto-
phonique catalog to map a nuanced portrait of his evocative
mirage exotica, wavering between bliss and abandonment,
paradise and prison. Isolation and island fantasy intermingle
in bewitching delirium, the sound of waves and tropical birds
refracted through heat-stroked haze while melting cassettes
unspool refracted melodies into lost horizons. Escape is
heaven – until it isn’t; in the artist’s words: “You’ll never
belong here.”
