'The Cloud Making Machine'. What is it exactly? The soundtrack to an imaginary film? Why is the French Godfather of Techno giving us a cinematic album? Why such a dramatic break with the music that we already knew? Why not bring out a techno album (yet another one), an electro clash album (so fashionable) or a rock album (like everybody else)?

It's definitely Laurent Garnier's most personal album to date. 'The Cloud Making Machine' album describes Laurent better than any feelings and words can - it's emotional and cinematic, mature and experimental, questioning, deep, bluesy and dark.
It's an album that truly reflects his wide approach to music, challenging and expressive, it is also a story of his meeting musicians along the journey to its' completion.
Ten songs written over the past four years that are reflections of the intimate, deep vision of Laurent Garnier. An album with the same palette of muted, dark colours that have always been present in his work.

It's important you know that 'The Cloud Making Machine' is not an album to dance to. In fact, you should find yourself a relaxing spot, unfold the album sleeve and use the clues that it gives you to take a guess at the different chapters that are waiting for you. Don't look too hard but just let yourself go, take a journey. Let the music take over space and then open it's palette of contradicting emotions: chaos and poetry, beautiful mornings and morning after blues, crazy laughs and quiet contemplation, deep experience and raw emotion.
