'French musician Bernard Parmegiani has composed 'Chants magnétiques' in 1974, one of the most sough after Bernard Parmegiani's album - a monster rarity which is almost impossible to find. This obscure album was composed around the same time as 'De natura sonorum' during the mid-seventies, a particularly important and effervescent era for Bernard Parmegiani. Indeed, as if one can say that 'De natura sonorum' is one of the best Parmegiani's 'serious' works in terms of technics-sound-harmonic-tone, then there is no doubt that 'Chants magnétiques' is his chef-d'œuvre on his 'dark side', the 'Parmegiani's hidden face' that few peoples knows nowadays. A collection of 10 united tracks under the title album name 'Chants magnétiques-magnetic fields' - titled before Jean Michel Jarre's album - and musically, in summary, more experimental, more organic, more spacey in compare to his famous INA-GRM works.'
