Title

Laudanum is the electro project of French artist Matthieu Malon (a songwriter whose first album Froids was released in 2000 on Village Vert/Wagram). Between 2002 and 2009, laudanum released 3 critically-acclaimed records (his first album System: On was the album of the month and of the year for MAGIC in 2002). The first two albums featured prestigious collabs (Aidan Moffat of Arab Strap, Laetitia Sheriff, Christian Quermalet of Married Monks, Angil…). In 2018, 10 years after stopping the project (because Matthieu Malon thought he had done the trick), and as he was about to turn 50, the desire to collaborate again with other voices and to reconnect the machines was reborn. 80 people were contacted, 20 responded positively, ie 20 vocal collaborations, to which were added a few other musicians (32 in total). 102 instrumental tracks were composed, 26 made it to the final selection... it then became obvious that a single record would not be enough, especially since Matthieu did not want to release a triple album. His 4th and new album will therefore become a project broken down in 3 volumes, and with the following guests in particular: Jim Johnston (Monk & Canatella), Scott McCloud (Girls Against Boys), Aidan Moffat (Arab Strap), David Best (Fujiya & Miyagi), Pete Astor (former member of The Loft / The Weather Prophets and The Wisdom Of Harry), Christian Quermalet (The Married Monk), Federico Pellegrini (The Little Rabbits, French Cowboy & The 10 One), DJ Need (Birdy Nam Nam)… Following the discontinuation of his historic label Monopsone, We Are Unique! has decided to take over and welcome him to its team, so that such an ambitious project, which will have required more than 5 years of effort, can see the light of day!
