Jean-Michel Blais & CFCF – “Hypocrite”
Montreal producer Mike Silver (aka CFCF) has teamed up with neo-classical pianist Jean-Michel Blais for an upcoming collaborative EP entitled Cascades. The project features five songs, including a rework of John Cage’s “In A Landscape” and new recordings from each member’s respective catalogues, and is led by the original composition “Hypocrite.” It’s a simply striking number that blends elements of trance music with Blais’ elegant piano playing. The music becomes increasingly epic, at times resembling so much as the Glitch Mob through its wide-screen production. Yet it’s also a completely natural extension of both artists’ impeccable styles.
