WRWTFWW Records is super happy to announce the official reissue of Roland Bocquet’s highly sought after solo album, Paradia. Sourced from the original masters, this very comforting and warm gem is available on limited edition vinyl housed in heavy 350gsm sleeve with holographic sticker, as well as on digipack CD.
Originally released in 1977 on the legendary Cobra label, Paradia is the first solo album by Roland Bocquet, keyboard player for cult French band Catharsis. The (mostly) instrumental album is a wonderful oddball adventure blending cosy ambient, euro-folk, synth escapades, Latin fusion with a French touch, gentle bossa, a tiny bit of minimalist chanson, and a heavy dose of je-ne sais-quoi. The result is soothing, mysterious in the sweetest ways, and fully atmospheric: a must have for fans of Pascal Comelade, Mort Garson, Dominique Guiot, ZNR, Vladimir Cosma, movie soundtracks, library music, and unclassifiable gems.
It’s hard to describe but lovely to experience! Paradia, Paradia, Paradiaaaaaaaa…

this album just really planted in my soil and grew onto me. this lovely album really knows how to take care of my emotions as well as the plants around me that also dance to these songs as well as I do.
full spathiphyllum swing! may the rest of the world find and cherish this peace for all eternity! ( ? )
Joe Howe filters the influence of prog, rock, and rave into delightfully oddball modular synth songs that squelch and squirm. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 14, 2021
