Marietta - Basement Dreams Are The Bedrooms Cream (2015)

Influences, Syd Barret, Jonathan Halper, first Becks albums, Robert Wyatt, Kurt Vile, Cate Le Bon, Bill Callahan, John Lennon, Grover Lewis, Lou Reed, Bob Dylan, White Fence, Spectrum, etc. Back to bedroom, to happy accidents and magic errors. I turn the tape. I record over Bob Dylan, Syd Barett and in Beck's grave. I take out the drum machine, the flanger and the accoustic guitar. Caffeine, nicotine. Garbage bags under the eyes, where kids sing swinging. Anxiety of passing time. Pitched boy, reverse woman. Take it as a trip. A colony of ants through the bloodstream. A yoghurt pot burst on your hair. Baby whale cum against an obstructed sky. Effervescent, multicolored nails parings. Sun in your mouth. I play according to my own rules. I walk in the footsteps of my home. That's how records catch fire. Marietta is the new project of Guillaume Marietta after The Feeling Of Love. First intimate album, recorded solo and hacked in a bedroom on a four tracks recorder. In 2014. Ten raw, lysergic, melancholic songs, with folk, pop and psychedelic tones. Mixed with Olivier Demeaux of the band Cheveu.
