Reviews & Discussion
I'll be the first here to say what a genius this man is. His music has stood the test of time and more. I think the album "Opera Sauvage" is highly underrated in the electronic music underground. It needs to be heard...the track "Reve" is an instant classic, that unfortunately is pretty much unknown. Obviously there is Bladerunner, but take some time to check his other works and you'll surprisingly find many more gems hidden throughout his vast recording career.
