27/06/2014, Didier BECU

Sometimes being a reviewer is the hardest job in the world, believe me! Take this for example. You get an email from a band who would like to have a review on our pages. You click the Soundcloud-page, but all you know is that they’re named Flares and that they have an album out which is free. Et voilà! That’s all.

Their music, well every track is different. I hear influences from Robert Fripp, Clan Of Xymox, Orbital, Radiohead, Massive Attack or even The Wolfgang Press. Or is it just me not being able to classify intelligent electronics? Who knows, but I love it…and I think you too. Hell, they even write better tunes than Coldplay, so there you go!

I am often a little frustrated by the complexity of my music, which in turn motivates me to keep composing, hoping that one day I will write a simple song.

As always, the writing process is one that I truly enjoy. To be so creative and have so much freedom, freedom to go with your instincts, freedom to try new things and freedom to write absolute crap - and that be okay.

I think we only come out stronger, more grateful and more passionate at what we do and feel privileged for having the opportunity to play in this band, and feel the love and support from the fans.
