Almost 5 years to the day since his Bricolage debut, "Imitation of Faith", the prolific Belial Pelegrim returns with his latest musical escapade, "The Astronaut's Last Polaroid", and t's a very special one indeed.

This album tells the story of Jack Hawthorne. A 68 year old former NASA astronaut that is now grappling with the onset of Alzheimer's disease. Once celebrated for his groundbreaking lunar missions, Jack now finds himself lost in the uncharted territory of his fading mind.

Alzheimer's disease is a subject that is no doubt close to the hearts of a lot of people and it's a subject that Belial has carefully mapped out with the utmost respect.

The music itself is 15 tracks of lucid and harmonic experimental soundscapes that set a transient stage for what feels like a dark yet beautiful dream. There's a tinge of anxiety laced throughout as you would expect with such a theme but it never becomes foreboding. It's more like giant swirls of memories and relics of the past that drift in and out of view.

Belial expertly maps out the journey through hypnagogic tones that resonate with the heart and mind. Fleeting glimpses of rhythmic patterns, flashes of brooding strings and sprinkles of melodic dust. Taking us on a trip through not only Jack's consciousness but also our own. The depth and emotion that burrows its way into each track is of grandiose proportions. At times it feels like we're witnessing a one man orchestra as we traverse through various realms of classical, glitch. ambient and electronica. A reverie of sonic tapestry.

"The Astronaut's Last Polaroid" serves as a woozy yet visceral reminder that time is not always on our side when it comes to memory but also that the mind is a beautiful place regardless.

Hey everyone! I'm thrilled to share some exciting news: my new album, "Toroidal Protocols," is ready for release! It's been a long time coming, and I'm so pleased to be releasing it on a limited series CD run.
"Toroidal Protocols" is a collection of nine tracks that explore the spaces between slow-paced psychedelic velvety soundscapes and haunting rhythmic textures. Subtle acid accents weave throughout, creating a hypnotic and immersive listening experience.
This album is a reflection of my creative journey, and I hope it resonates with you. Thank you for listening.

A tribute to Rutger Hauer and the movie Blade Runner, ending with a monologue often seen as one of the finest in cinema's history. It's Rutger himself, the actor, that modified the original scenario to produce that final death soliloquy (the exact final sentence was : all those moments will be lost "in time" like tears in rain, shortened here for musical purpose). Rutger died in july 2019, 3 mounths before the date on wich his character of the replicant died in the movie after saying this sentence, recorded 37 years before.
