Megabasse

 
Usually tied to the rock excesses of Jimmy Page or the unfortunate memory of the endless solo in “Hotel California”, the double-neck electric guitar becomes, in the hands of Pierre Bujeau, a portal out of those bloated, phallic conventions. A member of Omertà and Tans Mein Herz, Bujeau uses Megabasse as a solitary vehicle for long, hypnotic traversals across the instrument’s strings, unfolding a melodic minimalism that gradually turns in on itself as an “orchestra” of resonances and harmonics — echoing bells and cathedral reverberations, a kind of secular, psychotropic liturgy with all the time and space it needs to exist, and to carry us along in its current.
