Axxess

Axxess

Axxess has been played on NTS shows including Who's That Girl? w/ Leyla Pillai , with Masha first played on 17 March 2017.

Axxess is the brainchild of French multimedia artist Patrick Mimran. Mr. Mimran was co-director of Lamborghini Motors (along with his brother) at the time and fittingly released the album on the imprint Lamborghini Records. Heavily influenced by German electronic pioneers Klaus Schulze, Tangerine Dream, and Kraftwerk, Mr. Mimran commissioned the German engineer Andreas Bahrdt to build a custom complex synthesizer which eventually materialized into a 16 voice analog synthesizer of genius proportions named “Le Bart”. Andreas had previously designed a less elaborate prototype for Peter Baumann of Tangerine Dream fame. What then came to life as the product of Patrick’s imagination and this unique machine is a spectacular array of 15 sequenced instrumentals that is “Novels For The Moons”.

The opener “When The Lips Fly High” sets the stage for the labyrinthine polyrhythms that will enchant and enrapture the listener for the duration of the album. While most tracks have an upbeat driving vibe, others have a synth-heavy low-key subdued aspect as well. The album has been described in some circles as having cosmic qualities (as well as the track “Pages” making an appearance on a Daniele Baldelli mix in the past). Occasional resemblances to 70’s horror synth soundtracks could also be appreciated but with a more intricate song structure of layered intertwining sequenced patterns (such as in the track “Dancing Shadows”).
