Hand-in-hand with the production sound mixer Marie-France Barrier and the sound engineer Johann Levasseur, the trio filmed and recorded a myriad of extraordinary encounters, scenes of everyday life, the carnival... a highly-evocative documentary that was to become the matrix of Big Sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBack in France, he composed, edited, rehearsed and created the 27 tracks of a 70- minute West Indian space odyssey. Big Sun is a weaveworld of birds' songs and Pipo Gertrude's whistling, Joby Bernabe's poetry and a tete-a-tete with a lady mountain-dweller, Sissido and Samak's rap, Mario Masse's flute, the Fort de France carnival, conch shell echoes, the ocean's music and the hullabaloo of a game of dominos. And sumptuous pieces of music like La Route de la Trace or Reich \u0026amp; Darwin, which suddenly spring up at a bend in the road and take our breath away.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tricatel","offers":[{"title":"2026 Repress Edition","offer_id":54796004098371,"sku":"RPT-31705","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/1601\/8499\/files\/SRD_20260907_1300_122333_013_p_TRILPFR046_027.jpg?v=1788789463","url":"https:\/\/www.recordplant.co.uk\/products\/chassol-big-sun","provider":"Record Plant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
