A remarkable document of post-'68 French counterculture, Synths, Sax & Situationists (Music From The French Underground 1973-78) compiles six tracks from some of the most adventurous artists working in France during the mid-1970s. Spurred by the cultural fallout of May '68, this generation of musicians drew from free jazz, psychedelia, prog, and early synthesizer technology to create something entirely their own — a French underground that deserves the same recognition long afforded to the German Krautrock scene.
Featuring contributions from Heldon, Lard Free, Etron Fou Leloublan, and Jacques Berrocal alongside others, this compilation serves as a compelling introduction to a world of experimental music that sits at the crossroads of electronic, jazz, and avant-garde rock. Released on The Roundtable label, it acts as a companion piece to the Synths, Sax & Situationists book, making it as rich in context as it is in sound — an essential listen for fans of boundary-pushing music from any era.
