“The two artists create something rare : the total osmosis of image and sound. It will be very hard to beat. In all it is a quite unique object, one of those few masterpieces of art that you never tire of seeing and hearing, to a level where images become sound and sounds become image.” Tribune de Genève
“Two artists have pooled their talents to create a rare and original masterwork.” 20 Minutes
“Kid Chocolat and Pascal Greco get together in Super 8 to produce a most enchanting audiovisual creation.” La Liberté
“Sensory, original and astonishing, something totally out of the ordinary, the DVD + CD box conceals a fireworks display of filmed city scenes wired to electro music backing to create a poetic universe you must first experience before you fully understand.” RTS 12:45
“The two protagonists exchange influences : luminous stills of city scenes and electronic sound, both classical and bizarrely distorted. The result is soaring, stressful, strange. A brilliantly original idea, something one so seldom sees these days.” Le Matin
“An intriguing, aesthetic exploration of art, of magnificent images coupled with a superb music track. Picture and sound take you on a trip to freedom.” Couleurs 3
“While Pascal Greco’s camera explores contemporary declensions of visual psychedelism, Kid Chocolat’s music, built on his dark and sombre beat, digs deeper into the anguished spirit of his previous album Zombiparti. Entrancing !” Profil Femme
An outstanding object celebrating the fusion of cinema and music. In the sixties, and more recently in the nineties, musicians and filmmakers worked together in order to make films inspired by music and vice versa. Musician Kid Chocolat and filmmaker Pascal Greco have decided to bring this idea back to life and created Super 8, a concept soundtrack and film. The first one composed music for the second’s images who adapted his montage which influenced again the musical composition. The result ? A film shot in Super 8 (of course) without any digital alterations, which combines a warm atmosphere and a modern view. The soundtrack is made with rough materials and sparsely scored: guitars, vocals and synth are used to emphasize this strange universe.
Direction, cinematography and editing by Pascal Greco. Original soundtrack composed by Kid Chocolat Produced by Pascal Greco & Kid Chocolat - Poor Records Length: 31 minutes
