“Le Temps Des Moissons” was first released in 1975 after Ariel Kalma visited India to study modal singing and music. Now remastered and re-released by Beta-Lactam Ring Records, the album features two additional unreleased tracks recorded during the same sessions. The original vinyl release of “Le Temps Des Moissons” was one of the first to feature a locked groove at the end of side two, something that is replicated here in the form of several minutes of looped music. Kalma’s music is a fusion of ancient and modern styles combining saxophone, ethnic instruments, effects, electric instruments and electronic filters. Often giving the impression that it was created and improvised as it was recorded, ““Le Temps des Moissons” has a loose free form structure that gives it a sense of freedom and natural unplanned feel as illustrated with “Bakafrica”. “Voyage Reternelle” is somewhat more structured; a discrete drone is placed over layered saxophones with a vintage drum machine providing a simple rhythm. The almost 17 minute title track reflects his Indian influences of the time while “Fast Road To Nowhere” has a distinct ethnic sound, although not Indian, featuring mouth harp, flute and chanting that conjures images of Aboriginal tribes although it is based on a Middle Eastern melody. Closing the album as it began is the almost 17 minute “Reternelle”; a hypnotic track featuring an undulating looped drone and a pair of saxophones echoing each other. Kalma experiments with electronic equipment, fusing the old with the new and focusing his experiments around the saxophone. For an album released some 33 years ago, “Le Temps des Moissons” is at times a completely absorbing creation that takes traditional instruments and does something fascinating with them. The saxophone content will not be to everyone’s taste but it must have been way ahead of its time when it came out and still holds a captivating sense of experimentation to this day.
