French chanteuse Judith Juillerat presents her impressive debut album, fittingly called
Soliloquy
. For those quick to compare one can already mention her in the same breath along with
Barbara Morgenstern
or
Gustav
. Judith's electronic songwriting feeds off of a rich repertoire of whimsical musical figures and fancy tousled sounds. But in its perfect aesthetic balance it resembles imaginatively superimposed calligraphies in which every single sweep and stroke, each twist and turn, leads to an inspiring, meaningful expression.
Soliloquy
arrests attention with a paradoxical casualness that develops an irresistible attraction. An almost compelling voyeuristic element can hardly be dismissed while listening. You become an ear-witness attending an unexpected occasion of intimate and stirring moments. Melodies composed with little bugs, a mature composure in tempo, the intertwining free flow, plus freely interfering fragments unfolding an oppressive yet unrestrained beauty, all beckon to question the back-breaking, overly styled pettiness of daily routines. Judith finds her musical expression through improvisation and spontaneity, and she cites artists such as
Can
,
Amon Düül
,
Einstürzende Neubauten
,
Tarwater
or
Apparat
as sources of inspiration. It should not go unmentioned that
Soliloquy
was produced without a computer. Playing with old and new analog and digital synthesizers and beat boxes, a mini-sampler, effect machines, a microphone as well as acoustic instruments such as the piano and guitar. Track by track, she puts her songs and soundscapes together using a multi-track recorder. Whether this kind of old school production technique can be understood as the reason for the maturity of her music remains to be seen.
