Melatonin Staying Awake

Little Dragon Town of tiny loops

In a very similar format hardback children (those that could produce Hachette in the 50s), and Mami Chan Blanquet we have a colorful history and music: Town of tiny loops.

Album cover for collectors or real book-CD for children? The ambiguity is not a problem: so many toddlers get used to the singular beauty and does not sanctify the book.

Moreover, the object is solid, handling him will only add luster to the patina.

But, silence!
Listen!
What a strange stirring in this little theater!

Children monsters and chimeras, cuddly and mechanisms of organic Blanquet move like the shadow expressive eyes glowing in a landscape.
lush jungle or burning sky? Carnival or cataclysm?
The four elements are present (air, earth, water, fire) to a strange sarabande where characters move guided by a kind of vital necessity, imperious.

Mami Chan enters the scene. She blew the codes, the malaise that we could seize. His music mixes the colors and it casts a dispute over the drawings Blanquet. Curious sensory work where sound acts like light through stained glass.

Mami Chan alternate titles and poetic melancholy, festive and joyful without curb the touch of madness that characterizes it. The pretty doll
us with a nicely lit album in a mixture of affiliation with Erik Satie, Pascal Comelade and Japanese pop.

And the child is constructed by closing the curtain of this small theater.
Dreams full head, he sleeps, he is beautiful.
