Cthulhu is a creature created by H.P Lovercraft in the beginning of the 20th century. Symbolized by a computer generated voice in this record, is comes back on earth to brings the hell and desolation. With the help of a Thaï prayer, the world will be saved. This album is a journey in the mystic world of H.P Lovercraft but also sounds like a warning to the future generations. The music itself is a mix of rythms, orchestral and electronic music, sounds, voices in melodic environment.

Cthulhu has been made between the time I was Paris at Hillairet street, and the time I moved to Santeny the house I leave when I write these lines. Two friends participate to the album : Isabelle and Amelie. I`ve worked a lot from samples coming from stock music, and samples I made myself. It is a sample base album. I`ve re-used the robot voice that was in Prophecy. It is now my `trade mark` that sign my style. This album has been designed like a story to play on stage, like an Opera. The narrator tells the story and each piece of music is an event.

The message of this album is not that trivial. Cthulhu symbolize a part of the world, a religion, and the story is an allegory of what I think will be the 3rd world war. Maybe the last war?

Introduction - 3:26

In this introduction, the narrator, exposes the meaning of the album. With an orchestral mysterious background the main themes are played with piano and guitar. Be ready…

Strange Aeons - 4:02

This song describes the message of Cthulhu and the crowd that arrives from all over the world to celebrate its coming. Cthulhu has the power to hypnotize people while they sleep. Millions of people from all races, and animals are coming to assist to the event.

Narrator 01 - 0:31

“Cthulhu the beast and his daemons are ready to come back on earth, but he still needs a key! The Princess must open the door by giving her love to him. Cthulhu will transform himself and will fit the body of the prince of her dreams.“

Release Me - 3:57

Several computer generated voices are talking for Cthulhu. The Princess voice comes from Isabelle Dahak a friend I met in Paris. This song is very powerfull with heavy drums.

Narrator 02 - 0:29

Cthulhu has opened the door. And now all the spiritual forces in presence prepare the great battle. The two armies are waiting for his coming. The sea opens and Cthulhu comes from the deep.

It is Coming - 5:43

Description : This is one of the greatest song I\’ve made. I use guitars, piano, choirs, orchestra, and abstract noises at the end. This song is in the style of Prophecy Part3. It is a movie by itself. The song progressively change to a final explosion when Cthulhu arrives for real.

Agnus dei - 3:52

A Beautiful orchestral piece with full orchestra and choirs. Cthulhu is here and stands. The world burns, and people suddently realizes that they have assisted to the end of the world. The end of the pieces some crazy monks are coming from the deep while the children\’s choir try to resist…the hell is here : Agnus Dei.

Nikko – Incantations - 4:41

This song is really frightening. Based from the sounds from real Voodoo celebrations, it is a pure abstract music. It describes the hell on hearth the total anarchy with daemons and monsters killing and dancing everywhere. Everything is made in this song to create a really weird atmosphere!

Narrator 03 - 0:46

`Captain, our hero has found an old Chinese prayer hidden in the mountains. He had learned the power of the ancients thru the Necronomicon : the lost books of secrets and demons. A procession of women and children joined the battle and the incantation started.“

Prayer - 5:13

Based on a piano theme I`ve made when I was 15 years old, I`ve re-arranged this piece with Enigma in mind. I`ve used an old Thai month and with help of the orchestra tried to describe the procession of the good against evil. As you can see the 3 continents music have a role in this album… Europe/US are defeat by the Africa and saved by Asia. Prophetic?

A new Hope - 5:32

Based on a cool piano theme, this song has a solid rhythmic background. Hope comes back again.

Narrator 05 - 0:28

Captain breaks the charm and free Princess. She falls in love for the second time. This time the hero is real, and Captain take her in his flying machine for a wonderful trip!

Wings of Gold - 4:38

In this techno song with jungle rhythms our heroes will fly off the wings of gold . As you can see the different voices in this album have a role. The computer generated voice is for Cthulhu, the real voice for the hero and Cthulhu when he has hypnotized Princess. The woman voice is Princess of course.

Narrator 06 - 0:46

We are at the end of this story. I hope you ll read between the lines and see how much this story and the way it is played can be warning for all of us. Today the demons have changed their face. They talk at the TV and sometime, they are loved by the crowd. But they are still evil, an enemy to light, an ally of the powers of darkness, disruption, and decay.

Europera - 3:41

The final part of Cthulhu is a very optimistic song with an Opera style singer and a techno style. The Opera voice has been totally re-synthesized. Credit must be given to Amelie Glenn who gave her voice for this song.
