Cataclysmic "Edition Spéciale"! In its first CD Faidate, the blood is hitting artery walls with mad and tender music of free rhythms. With winks to the jazz fans.

But the foundation, that's them: "Edition Spéciale". Within their modernity, they know how to play different styles, yet remaining themselves, thanks to the richness of their original compositions. This tentet gives birth in its inner rhythm to the present, with all its excesses that galvanize and enthuse.
