- Univers Zero: Live At The Triton 2009
(2025, download / streaming, --, bandcamp)
(2025, cd+dvd, Belgium, sub rosa)
Recorded at Le Triton in Paris.
In 2009, the Triton venue (near Paris, France) was sold out to celebrate the 35th anniversary of Univers Zero, an iconic band of the Rock In Opposition movement. These two exceptional concerts highlighted a radical and unique style of music, at the crossroads of new music and chamber rock, skilfully blending acoustic and electric instruments, as heard on the cult album 'Ceux du Dehors'.
Around Daniel Denis (drums, composition), Michel Berckmans (oboe,
bassoon), and Andy Kirk (keyboards and guitar), three historical figures of the group, complemented by four other talented musicians, offered an intense multimedia show, intertwining a condensed version of key pieces from the repertoire with more recent compositions. These concerts were part of a key phase in which the band offered one of its most accomplished line-ups, taking the opportunity to establish its sound and image.
Intense. Beautiful.
