Superpoze’s new studio album “Nova Cardinale” will be released on March 25th, 2022.
After composing for cinema, theater, multi-platinum French rap singles and French Chanson albums, Gabriel Legeleux, aka Superpoze, continues his journey in electronic and instrumental music.
He expands his intimate and singular work with a third dense and extensive album, where strings, flutes and choirs join synthesizers, pianos and percussions.
Gabriel wrote a letter of intention. In it, he tells the story of the conception of his album, from the birth of the impulse to the pure technical realization.
“Nova Cardinale is an album conceived as a world rather than a story. A place made of sounds in which one can find a path, get lost or stand still and observe the surroundings. An album in which the tracks live on a grand scale,
ranging from intimacy to emphasis. An album with perspective and vanishing points. It was an intimate and sensitive writing work, and also a real technical work of sound and production. Listening to the album, these two aspects seem to me indissociable today.”
“The writing work was solitary. The recording and the production were a group work: first in my studio with Sylvain de Barbeyrac – sound engineer, faithful friend – to lay the foundations of the album: prepare the sessions, record the first synthesizers, sort out the sounds of the demos that I wanted to keep, etc.
Then, we recorded the acoustic instruments at Studio Pigalle in Paris and finally, I went to the Motorbass studio in Paris to record the drums, percussions, drum machines and synthesizers, then to produce these sounds with the magnificent machines that inhabit this studio: amps, reverbs, filters, echoes, delays, etc. and mastered by Joe LaPorta at Sterling Sound in New York.”
