Parc en Ciel is the solo work of Mathieu Thomas, a multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer from Scotland via suburban Paris. A soundtrack project influenced by scientific discovery, the natural world and harmony, the album veers from to spare and simple layered arrangements to more dense synthesized pieces.
There is a clear lineage back to new age library recordings, progressive rock and Giallo film scores, using analogue equipment, then augmented with guitar, voice, percussion and archive material.
The first in a series of annual Parc en Ciel records exploring new age soundtracks and global music inspirations.
