I love 'Vous et Nous' - very sprawling indeed but despite the variety (some folk stuff, some Oud/arabic Areski jams, even some proto-electro stuff) all the songs capture a kind of floating eeriness that's really poetic. Her new stuff ain't bad either

three years pass...

I found an Areski record, Un Beau Matin, that is equally fantastic. About half the songs are credited to Fontaine/Areski and I hear her vocalizations throughout the record tho Areski takes the driver's seat on the record.

Just got a reissue of this album. Mesmerising.
