Sebastien Tellier // L'Aventura
Oh Sebestien, with your flowing locks, French accent and unusual Eurovision entry, you are a romantic dream. The cover for this, his sixth album, is reflective of his fantastical, colourful world and the perfect picture to draw all these magnificent songs together. This self produced, ten track album is a thing of summer bliss, of sunshine and bare feet, of laughing gaily with friends as you drink Gallic beers. It’s influenced heavily by Brazilian tones and he sings mostly in his native French but with the odd English and Italian phrases. Overall, it’s a massively happy album that’s full of light, with all sorts of unidentifiable instruments becoming involved, alongside Sebastien’s rather Jarvis Cockeresque voice. There’s the funky Ambiance Rio which features keyboard sounds straight from John Shuttleworth, Love, which is pure romance, Ricky l’Adolescent which you can’t sit still to, and the laid back L’enfant Vert. It’s all very lovely, and complex, whilst appearing to be so easily done. Sebastien! You’re going from strength to strength!
