Orbis Tertius review on Synth&Sequences

Sylvain Lupari wrote another very nice review of my album Orbis Tertius on his huge blog Synth&Sequences.

"(...) A very beautiful album which has all the ingredients to please to those most demanding fans of vintage Berlin School EM. Sylvain Mazars shows a stunning maturity and a sense of writing which is quite disconcerting with all those music turnovers which bring the listener in his sonic heaven. You have guessed that to me “Orbis Tertius” is wonderful surprise! (...)"

Orbis Tertius review on MusicZeit

First review of Orbis Tertius by Dave Law on MusicZeit (where the album is also available)

"The final album uploaded by Syngate since the last update ‘Orbis Tertius’ is by a new artist Pharamond. Again sequences abound. It does have some Berlin School moments but also covers wider ground. Indeed it can be quite inventive while at the same time never becoming a difficult listen. The opening track is probably the one with the greatest punch, the others chugging along nicely with pleasant melodies. The third and fourth tracks ‘Uqbar’ and ‘Uqbar 2’ are probably my favourites, To sum up, Pharamond does have a sound of its own but there is also enough familiarity about it to avoid sounding alien. A superb debut."
