After the fantastic Colmar Tapes, beautiful book/album dedicated to the sessions that French band Herman Düne and friends recorded in Alsace, the label Hiéro came up with the same concept in Berlin.
Pull's leader David Lespes stayed there for a few months and recorded sessions alone in his own environment, non-stop recording jams -including mistakes, tries and accidents.
Amongst all those attempts, sixteen nervous rock songs were chosen, each of them containing dozen of various melodies. A gorgeous album, with a lot of comments, pictures and illustrations (drawn by comic’s author Vincent Vanoli) and brilliant pop songs.
