Les Dupont

Les Dupont — 26th Album: An Electronic and Cinematic Odyssey

---

With Trans i-D Reworks Vol.1, Les Dupont unveil their twenty-sixth album, opening a new chapter in their ongoing musical exploration. While preserving the cinematic and contemplative atmospheres that have defined their sonic identity, the duo delivers a work of remarkable fluidity and expressive depth — a fully immersive listening experience.

The album opens and closes beneath the sign of the storm. From the very first notes of Fade To Grey, the listener is drawn into a hypnotic introduction that sets a tone both dramatic and poetic. Mirroring this, the closing track, The Storm, combines synth choirs and lyrical voices in a sweeping ascent toward emotional and sonic grandeur.

Between these two poles, the music unfolds in luminous waves. To Dance Is To Live and Gordon’s Gin — a futuristic homage to The Human League — infuse the album with rhythmic vitality and melodic grace.
Autobahn follows with raw kinetic energy, while Voyager ventures into darker, more introspective territory, blending New Beat textures with expansive electronic landscapes.

With Trans i-D Reworks Vol.1, Les Dupont reaffirm their commitment to a distinctive musical language that merges production precision, rhythmic mastery, and poetic openness. Each listen reveals new layers, guiding the audience through an ever-shifting soundscape — both physical and inner.

Note: Tracks 01 and 07 are reinterpretations — all elements were played and produced by Les Dupont.
The remaining tracks are original compositions, written, performed, and produced by the duo.Artwork: Andy Weisner
