Roland Bocquet-Robot Rose - Claviers Synthétiseur,LP,1982,France

After the group CATHARSIS broke up, its former keyboardist threw himself into the adventure of solo production, managing to avoid the restrictions and pitfalls of the "solo keyboards album" -which is often a pretext for an insipid display of the keyboardist's talent- by inviting excellent musicians to accompany him and by giving free expression to his fabulous talent as an original composer and gifted arranger. This album combines great electronic/experimental /space elements and sometimes touching the pseudo disco sound.An album which is an invitation to travel and to dream.

    Your blog is very awesome! But I am having a problem with your use of RapidShare. I want to hear the music you are posting, but RapidShare only allows one download at a time (and you post several times throughout the day, each shared album appears to be a gem), and only allows a certain number of downloads within a certain time frame.

    Might I suggest switching to a different service? Mediafire doesn't seem to offer the same problems.

    jgrovaswitness-Mediafire offer worse problems by far: they routinely delete links.

    This is awesome...thanks to you!

    Mediafire isn't the solution for me neither. A multi-host as sharebee might be the solution...

    I likes the rapidshare too.

    They stay up longer and people can have many downloads per day if they wait ten minutes after each download. This helps pace people anyways.

    Just my 2 cents.

    Superb blog btw!

    No one happens to have Robot Bleu available, do they? :-)

    I sure wish someone would post the "less obscure" Robot Bleu, as well. I can't seem to find it anywhere and this one has me very curious.
