Be on the outlook, listen, and take the time to immerse yourself. Le Guetteur protects a small world full of surprises, a collection of treasures that come from different fronts. It is a path that winds through various musical oases, that invites exploration, but that still remains clear, never forgetting its past. We can exclaim: “It really is Néodyme!”

The acoustic piano combined with electric guitars rediscovers duality within complicity. Once again, inventive and diverse rhythms shape a solid and reflective base where the groove can breathe more than ever.

More and more, the traverse flute sets apart the identity of the group by bringing out new flavours and by occupying a steadier place. Our winds section grows, with an ever-present trumpet, while recorders swirl around for a few moments. Various percussions, atmospheres, and samples, all in service of the music, enhance these explorations. The track arrangements, still as exploded as ever, keep their concern for unity and give each track its own unique character.

Even the most challenging listeners will be charmed by this lively and profound instrumental production, and its accomplished and inspired performances. This complete artistic work was created with simplicity, for the love of music and art that remains true.
