Première Vision de l'étrange (1978)
Ocarinah's sole work is a real gem to be found in the French underground mine. Try to imagine the first two Clearlight albums - but as strictly a keyboard trio (with occasional guitar) - combined with a strong dash of metronomic rigidness similar to the Canterbury movement. In particular the early albums by Egg come to mind. Première Vision de l'étrange contains five long tracks of incredible creativity and complexity. An easy-to-listen-to masterpiece of the style.
