Christian Wander toujours fabuleux et ceux qui l'accompagnent sont à la hauteur. En transe il rythme jusqu'à la déstructuration de sa musique et c'est encore de la musique dans la lignée de Strawinsky,de Coltrane... Pas du bruit, d'autres états d'âme!

Nope, that ain't him.

the sound of the instruments may not be so good but to listen to the music of Magma you have to concentrate your attention on rythm, they could play MDK with Playskool instruments, it would kick ass, for sure !! The music of Magma is so rich and so clear, it may take years and years to know how to listen to their music. Magma for life.

Now that I see this vid again it looks pretty goofy. The keyboards are like a cheap Casio or something, Christian is back to playing a three piece kit that looks like he borrowed it from a 12 year old, and Didier is playing chords on his violin like he wishes he had a Les Paul. Oh, and it's obviously the early 90's because everyone is attired like they're auditioning for Seinfeld. Still fun to see them between "now" and "then". Paganotti's bass looks wicked too.

Magma intime. Entre amis.. Ca le fait... Le coeur de Mekanik est un chef d'oeuvre de rythme... Un jour, les musiciens classiques le découvriront, et enfin, Magma sera reconnu comme une grande musique, dans certains de ses moments du moins, car il y a des "bruits" aussi...

Sorry folks, but the dull keyboards are annoying here - I think there are better versions than this one...

I really must be tone deaf; I am a keyboard player and I can't really hear the "ice cold" synth sound.

actually it's Patrick Gauthier on keybords who played in Magma in the seventies

Oh, I love Didier Lockwood!!! And I always have fun with this section of MDK...whenever they play it live, it's a real headbanger! (How fast can -you- sing "ziss unt etnah"? Stella can always sing it faster!)Is it just the sound quality, or has Klaus lost a bit of his vocal power? I hope it's just the sound...
