dOP - LHôpital La Rue La Prison

Review by Reggie Rodrigue

dOP's album LHôpital La Rue La Prison is a stunning work of art that blends electronic and acoustic sounds in a unique and captivating way. The French trio, composed of Clement Zemstov, Damien Vandesande, and Jonathan Illel, have crafted an album that is both experimental and accessible, with a sound that is both futuristic and rooted in tradition.

The album's title translates to "Hospital Street Prison" in English, reflecting the themes of confinement and isolation that permeate the music. The tracks are moody and atmospheric, with haunting melodies and intricate rhythms that draw the listener in. From the opening track "A Night in Sausalito" to the closing "L'Hôpital," the album takes the listener on a journey through different moods and emotions.

One of the standout tracks is "The Dying Night," a haunting ballad that showcases the trio's vocal harmonies and emotional depth. The track "L'Hôpital" is also a standout, with its pulsing beats and hypnotic melody that build to a crescendo.
