I hope you are well



It's my friend Gayle Austin who told me about you.
And it seems we have similar taste in music !
Here's my album featuring April March, Don Fleming , Sean O' Hagan , Faust and supported by Van Dyke Parks , Robert Wyatt and Jonathan Coe
If you want to get a vinyl copy just ask -

I had rave reviews in the UK press : Shindig, Record Collector & Electronic sounds..

See what these great artists says about my album
Robert Wyatt
await vinyl with much anticipation, meanwhile, the things you have sent via this machine* are, to be succinct, MARVELLOUS~
&* even the routes through the various virtual doors and curtains to find them are consistent with your love of the obscure !
Best fishes,
Robaire Ouaitte.
Van Dyke Parks
Dear Jean—Emmanuel
The work is delicious—a buoyant energy that floats above our surface tension here.
Congratulations—-and merci.

Dear J-E

I enjoyed the album very much. Musically of course it is very much in my favourite area – I hear lots of echoes of my favourite bands, but especially the High Llamas. (The opening of ‘The Governor of California’ bears an uncanny resemblance.) Maybe there is a little too much spoken word for my liking – I used to experiment myself with these combinations of speaking and music, and in the end I decided I preferred to keep them separate. It’s great to hear a couple of covers of Gilbert O’Sullivan songs: I’m a big fan. Have you heard his recent albums? (The last two are both very good.) I’m in email contact with him, would you like me to send him one of your versions?

Best wishes

Jonathan Coe

I'll just say here that I did not
know what to make of "Rouen Dreams" at first. As I continued listening I found myself enjoying it
more and more. I find it both wonderful and strange, and I think that the album art very much fits with the music inside.
Cool innit?

Jean-Emmanuel Deluxe — The Biography
Graduate in Fine Arts, Jean-Emmanuel Deluxe quickly realised that pop culture offered a wider field of investigation than a bloodless art world where being conventional is required of everyone. A specialist in pop culture, J-E Deluxe is also an author (check his Yéyé girls of 60’s French Pop published by Feral House) and an artist. Journalist for Shindig, Acid Beans, Rock and Folk, Citizen K, Transfuge, Schnock and many other magazines, he knows that one can't be both judge and jury, which is why he prefers to promote the artists he likes rather than criticize the ones he doesn't. He also runs the Martyrs du Pop label which made a name with April March, Jacques Duvall and Jay Alansky. At the start of the 21st century he recorded a "Tribute to Alain Delon and Jean-Pierre Melville" with his long-time friend Alexandre Faem, with such guests as St. Etienne, Bertrand Burgalat, Jacno, Helena Noguerra, X-Ray Pop and Ariel Wizman. Sometimes time flies faster than we wish and it has taken almost two decades for M. Deluxe to bounce back. In the end, if you believe Robert Wyatt, Bid (Monochrome Set) and others, our pop activist was right to return!

The Concept
The concept of Rouen Dreams—like the cover by Bart Johnson—is an interior voyage: Hollywood seen from the eyes of a Frenchman who has never been there, but knows that no matter in what part of the world we live, our collective unconscious has been shaped (brainwashed?) by the "dream” factory.

Musically, the album is inspired by a sort of tradition of weird Pop from Francois Werthheimer to Dashiel Hedayat… as well as seeking its
