Those in the know regard Space Art as one of French electronic music’s most under-appreciated acts. Active between 1978 and ’81, Synthesizer obsessive Dominique Perrier and drummer Roger Rizzitelli were famed for releasing killer chunks of “cosmic pop”, before performing them live wearing specially made silver space suits. ‘Nous Savons Tout’, which was recorded and released in 1981, remains one of their most potent singles. Creepy, strange, hypnotic and undeniably cosmic, Perrier’s trippy synth parts seemingly rise and fall over Rizzitelli’s metronomic, proto-techno drums. Flipside ‘Melodie Moderne’ has an altogether different feel, coming on like a pitched-down, cosmic disco take on the artier side of 1970s progressive rock.
