GB 1579CD

Originally released in 2022. The fourth album by the singular Bastien Keb. Conceived as a fantasy world to escape self-doubt and loneliness, fragments from everyday life continue to bleed through the cracks of reality -- the harmony from a distant car alarm, someone's headphones on the night bus, rain on leaky roof, a decaying siren -- to produce a dreamlike journey pieced together from half-imagined memories and late-night inner-voice conversations.

Originally released in 2020. A soundtrack to an imagined film. Bastien Keb presents his third album, The Killing of Eugene Peeps, an ode to Giallo, '70s crime flicks, and French new wave cinema. Befit with downbeat anti-ballads, psychedelic folk, and warped soliloquies, the music is an imagined score to a film that exists only in Keb's mind. The album was conceived, composed, performed, and produced by Bastien Keb in his bedroom. The music flows between spoken word narrative pulled from Keb's own journals, hauntingly layered vocals that conjure up dreamscapes and nostalgia, and rich, orchestral arrangements which were in fact all recorded via one singular microphone. Various contributions from longtime collaborators include Nottingham-based rapper Cappo, narrator Kenneth Viota, and album artwork by artist Will Morrison, who has worked with Bastien Keb for several years.
"One that recalls, variously, the proto-trip-hop of Serge Gainsbourg and Jean-Claude Vannier, the rumbling scores of Bernard Herrmann and the cinematic swagger of Barry Adamson." --John Lewis, The Guardian
