Carnaval
French composer Lucie Antunes is broadening her sonic horizons with second album Carnaval. Following the resounding critical success of 2019âs Sergei, the Perpignan-born, classically-trained drummer and percussionist releases an ebullient, electronically-oriented followup that is designed for the dancefloor.
Already lauded in France, Antunes unites the pop world with the avant-garde, with a crossover appeal that traverses genres and borders with ease. Carnaval also sees LĂ©onie Pernet come on board as producer, who brings frisson to these eleven tracks whilst helping to augment the grooves. Using and manipulating the human voice for the first time, Antunes was inspired in part by the American composer Meredith Monk, to use her vox as percussive instrument, conveying meaning with nonverbal phrases and phonemes. Carnaval is more coquettish, curious and creative than anything sheâs yet done, imbuing the listener with the cerebral mischief of Laurie Anderson on âItâs Amazingââan opening track which more than fulfills its titular promise.
