The digital- & vinyl-only release ‘PASPEUR’ is the second part of a huge trilogy that one might describe as the musical memoires of Paul Couter. The consistent triptych is a pure culmination of Paul’s numerous wanderings and lifetime experiences. Although every single record of the trilogy seems to have a completely different
sound , the characteristic voice and poetic beatnik qualities of Paul run like a red thread through the whole piece of art. ‘A Yellow Tape Trilogy’ is a coherent body of work. Not by accident: Peter van de Veire (Yellow Tape Studio) was the engineer during all the recording sessions.
‘PASPEUR’ is a private affair in a dusky city while Paul Couter is on a roll with his blues fanfare. These are twilight lamp recordings. “Je n’ai pas peur d’attendre mon amour est plus fort que la mort” (I don’t fear waiting my love is stronger than death). The songs on the new album are totally unknown, ferocious meetings with fatal open endings. Urban music on small sunlit squares in the countryside: that kind of stuff. Love, nonsense and other noteworthy items feature on the album. ‘PASPEUR’ is a secret history, ready to be revealed.
Flashback: On ‘‘A YELLOW TAPE RECORDING’ - pt. 1 of the trilogy (released in March 2015) Paul Couter winked at Serge Gainsbourg and The Velvet Underground while recalling his early days in Ostend. Quite the same vibe of an area in which Paul and Arno joined forces in the band FreckleFace (’72-’75) and formed the legendary duo Tjens-Couter (’75-’80) afterwards.
What’s next? The word is out that the third and final episode of the Yellow Tape Trilogy (title and release date tba) has a bluesy twist, who knows? The record is scheduled for 2017.
