opus nigra! An obscure world because underground! What is more underground? than laboratories of alchemists, caves and mines? Like them, I proceed by analogism! The world represented by my music is based on introspection, it is often oppressive as if we leave the real world to go to the meeting of our ultimate light in these obscure places! Intra-terrestrial, deprived of pigmentation, pale alchemist, working in my laboratory, my visions become sonorities! Then in the insulation, I my search undertakes; “ the Quest ” if it is one!? to even know oneself! In the strange history of various the discoveries of metals and alchemical poisons, the deepening will be made with the travel and underground discoveries, in a world where nothing is clear, all is oneiric, an inevitable way which does not make it possible to make half turn! Because the first alchemists were the blacksmiths, who had this capacity to transform the ground into metal! I would be the minor of my heart and I would probe me to find the ultimate stone! If the gods allow it to me! Naked and lost in my darkness, not knowing the protocols I would begin, by offending them, these agoraphobic gods! Like the “rock” I am difficult to bore! I need “break” to break this interior carapace! And without “acid”, I could not corrode this coarse metal enough and extract his noble message from it! Because a world interior is full with contradictions, such of the small people of demons, I want revisit my dear goth art, where the Alchemists were great poets like François Villon! There is no chance that you see the sun in this voyage, no light that your heart, to light you in this labyrinth, these catacombs where live strange creatures, never really human! let us be us only? Human!? Are we not monsters with us even? are we becoming cannibal autoeaten? Paradoxical travels like are always these initiatory courses. Sometimes to obtain peace, it is necessary to make the war with its own demons. There is no respite granted to the travellers, it is no rest area, if they are not some uncomfortable alcoves where, it is not worthy to trail! This first work, represents one dark period as its title indicates it. A such requiem, this descent with the “purgatory”, where our nostalgic feelings are kneaded regrets of culpabilities and judgements! Without sympathy to these demons, they will not enable us to further go that our fundamental fears! By what they are only us even!
