Exactly twenty years ago (happy birthday!), Bumcello performed their first concerts in a bar with the idea of replacing the DJ with a cello and a drumkit. It worked. In 2006, the duo competed in Victoires de la musique in the electronic music category without using a single electronic instrument. They won. Bumcello's first album since 2012, ?Monster Talk? marks the return of the Vincent Segal - Cyril Atef duo. It's a big step forward. The line-up is as unexpected as ever ? a drummer, a cellist, total freedom and originality in guests ? and the music as unclassifiable. Combine a multitude of influences (from dance to Haitian rara, dub to contemporary music, post-punk to go-go), all the better to transform them and break loose from them. 'Monster Talk' is outstandingly rich, intense, dynamic and surprising.
