Originally recorded in France in 1970, Pop Music by Structure is a captivating slice of library-styled jazz-funk that defies easy categorization. The album blends psychedelic and progressive sensibilities with Brazilian and Bossa Nova touches, creating a sound that feels both timeless and adventurous. Now reissued by Sommor in 2023, this long-overlooked gem is finally getting the wider audience it deserves.
The music is driven by Bernard Wystraëte's groovy flute work alongside heavy bass, drums by André Ceccarelli, violin, occasional fuzz-wah guitar, and Urszula Dudziak-like scat vocals — a truly unique combination that rewards repeated listening. Fans of Jean Cohen-Solal, Cortex, COS, and ZAO will find plenty to love here, as the album occupies that rare space where jazz sophistication meets infectious, funky energy. The reissue comes packaged in a hard cardboard sleeve that recreates the original artwork, complete with an insert featuring liner notes and photos.
