"It only takes one to two milligrams of nutmeg per kilogram of body weight to trigger harmful effects on the central nervous system. If you ingest a tablespoon of nutmeg, you may experience numerous side effects, including nausea, vomiting, euphoria, hallucinations, and an increased heart rate."
The percussive alluring mystery of "Noce Moscata" by Paris based, Italian composer Louis Fontaine, feels like a 1966 Parisian version of Mission Impossible. The track with a vintage feel is propelled by amazing drum patterns with the skins seemingly tuned tighter than your average drum kit. The suspensions of sound whether guitar lead notes or bending sounds, bells, tubular pipe sounds or maybe a theremin adds to the cool and to the eeriness. The abstractions make for tensions that sound both illusory, surf noir cool but horror pop-esque too, dips into other dimensions, oddly sexy or sexually odd, you take your pick. And as retro as it sounds it sounds potently fast forward too. Think of an amalgam of Henry Mancini, Thom Yorke, Michel Magne and Nigel Godrich.

I want this track in a movie or the next Netflix binger. I also want to put a turtle neck and tight pants on and dance to this (not a pretty sight) with a low angle light casting huge shadows on the wall.

Dive today into the fascinating universe of Louis Fontaine, an Italian composer from the outskirts of Milan. This musician, passionate about film music, library music, and cinema, is also a talented self-taught multi-instrumentalist. He has mastered drums, guitar, bass, and piano by drawing inspiration from his favorite musicians and composers, and has recently ventured into exploring analog synthesizers, inspired by the electronic universe of François de Roubaix. In 2008, Louis Fontaine took a step forward by producing his own music from his studio located in the Italian countryside. He used an 8-track Tascam analog recorder before making the bold decision to move to Paris, where he has been living for 10 years. It is in the French capital that he recreates his home studio and produces his first two albums: "L'obsession" and "Ritmi Moderni". These albums draw inspiration from the original soundtracks and library music of the 60s and 70s, a period he considers as the golden age of this musical genre. Louis Fontaine has a particular admiration for the freedom of composition, experimentation, and unique sound of music from that era, which is also found in pop, psychedelic rock, and electronic music. "Ritmi Moderni" is an emblematic album, inspired by library music and original soundtracks of the 60s and 70s. Composed by exploring various grooves and rhythms, this album reveals the composer's incessant quest to create themes and melodies capable of evoking cinematic images. To develop his pieces on this album, Louis Fontaine relied on old archive footage (documentaries, commercials, TV shows, films...), muting the sound to recreate the suggested soundtrack by the images. Each track on the album aims to tell a story, paint a landscape, draw an image, and immortalize a situation. The titles are chosen to evoke images, worlds, and universes to be imagined by the listener, making "Ritmi Moderni" a true invitation to travel through space and time.
