TRACKLIST SIDE A  A1_It's amazing A2_ Vivant.e.s part I A3_Faites vous des bisous A4_Hoho A5_Mais A6_Vous êtes parfait.e.s SIDE B  B1_Jacob B2_Elliott B3_Carnaval B4_Yagé B5_Vivant.e.s part II INFO French composer Lucie Antunes is broadening her sonic horizons with second album šCarnaval›. Following the resounding critical success of 2019™s šSergei›, the Perpignan-born, classically-trained drummer and percussionist releases an ebullient, electronically-oriented followup that is designed for the dancefloor. Antunes unites the pop world with the avant-garde, with a crossover appeal that traverses genres and borders with ease. šCarnaval› also sees Léonie Pernet come on board as producer, who brings frisson to these eleven tracks whilst helping to augment the grooves. Using and manipulating the human voice for the first time, Antunes was inspired in part by the American composer Meredith Monk, to use her voice as percussive instrument, conveying meaning with nonverbal phrases and phonemes. ˜Carnaval™ is more coquettish, curious and creative than anything she™s yet done, imbuing the listener with the cerebral mischief of Laurie Anderson on ˜It™s Amazing™žan opening track which more than fulfills its titular promise.
