Elysian Park

Description: Elysian Park Elysian Park is the third album by French, London based producer Franz Kirmann and his second for Denovali. If Franz Kirmann s second album, Meridians (2014) was a continuation of the nostalgic dreamlike electronica of his first, Random Access Memories (2010), then Elysian Park is a complete departure from it. The album was born from Hyper Trophies , a 2012 installation project by Berlin art studio Zeitguised that Kirmann was commissioned to soundtrack. Both the visual and sonic aesthetic of that project were instrumental in defining the artistic and sonic approach to Elysian Park. Hyper Trophies was a crossover art/fashion project and consisted of three endless video loops presented in a vertical format and showing unemotional and deadpan female models floating amongst nocturnal backdrops, evoking ghostly figures in some apocalyptical wastelands. Another key influence on the development of Elysian Park was the reading of Michel Houellebecq s 2005 novel The Possibility Of An Island . In Franz Kirmann s mind, Zeitguised digital sculptures offered an interesting graphic extension of the novel s themes in which human clones living in a post apocalyptical future study the lives of their originator from the early 21st century and attempt to understand human emotions and connect with each other. But for all its bleak harshness, there are many moments of tranquil clarity on Elysian Park and a sense of a search for a better, more peaceful place. The brooding and bleak numbers are offset against pieces of sepulchral beauty (Tears In Your Eyes, Halcyon, Darknet) or sedated peacefulness (Mirage / Diazepam Dreams / Paradiso Beach). Through its everyday sounds vaporised into oblivion, and it s majestic sense of emptiness, Elysian Park eschews a fragmented black geography of an emotionally alienated consumerist society.
