PRESS REVIEWS :
Dmute.net “The Orientalist est un de ces autodidactes, fouineurs de samples, amoureux des ambiances ethniques, composant avec une approche clairement sombre et illbienne. “ read the review
Sefronia.com “Un gros boulôt est réalisé sur les samples et le traitement des sons. Le style est épuré et prend son temps pour définir des climats globalement oppressants. On évite de très loin l’écueil world-lounge estampillé “Bouddha bar“ read the review
Catching the Waves “If you like grainy, cavernous soundscapes then you’re in luck. Book a seat if you like slow, grooving Big Beat. Do you care for Indiana Jones, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and spooky sound effects? “ read the review
Sonomu.net “The result is a glorious mish-mash of cultures, tones and stylings, all held on a tight leash of pelvic rhythms. Vastly entertaining third otherworldy fun fun fun from beginning to end.“ read the review
Hoxman on jamendo.com “Des sons indus sonnant parfois à la Prodigy, une zik entre jungle, drum&bass et trip-pop, une atmosphère qui m’accroche énormément avec des instrus typiquement ethniques “ read the review
