La Course is the second album from Adrien Durand's multifaceted, neo-disco instrumental band, Bon Voyage Organisation (BVO), released in 2020. On this record, the band takes a jazz turn while keeping the neo-disco grace that is their trademark. A real kaleidoscope of influences, from the spiritual jazz of Pharoah Sanders to the ambient fourth world of Ryuichi Sakamoto, La Course resembles above all those exotica theme albums of the 1950s and 1960s: it offers a variety of atmospheres and borrows from different musical languages, without necessarily trying to expose one more than another. In addition to BVO, Adrien Durand has, in recent years, produced records for others (Amadou et Mariam, Bagarre, Papooz). What stays in one's mind as one listens is less a name than a very French type of artists who, from Pierre Barouh to Michel Colombier and Hector Zazou, have made their art a way of talking about the world around them or of which they dreamed. A jazz turn showcasing a range of influences, from spiritual jazz to ambient and exotica.
