After his debut album for Discrepant, Papillon (CREP 009LP, 2013), and a couple of tapes for Dinzu Artefacts (Aqueducts, 2017) and Sucata Tapes (Cercueill Flottant, 2019 (SUC 022CS)), Papillon aka Gonçalo F. Cardoso returns to the wax treatment for one last hurrah into the depths of tropical disquiet. Taking liberties from Henri Charriere's book sequel of the same name, Banco (1972), the audio reader here dives straight up/down into a world of random dream logic. The same themes of nightmare vs. paradisiac dreams are present here yet with more nuance than the first volume. The adventure here is more subdued, less spiritual as most of it is lived outdoors, free from the state's shackles of abuse. A lighter tone then, for what will probably be the last Papillon adventure. As with the first volume the album counts with contributions from fellow label artists, Mike Cooper, Cédric Stevens, David Daan, and Yannick Dauby all feature in a way or another, raw or cooked into a boiling pot of irreverence. All tracks were composed and edited by Gonçalo F Cardoso in the island of La Gomera, Lisbon and London between 2017-2019. Mastered by Rashad Becker. Edition of 300.

From Sucata Tapes/Discrepant comes Cercueil Flottant, a mini-album by Gonçalo F Cardoso's most experimental and retro avant-garde moniker, Papillon. After a self-titled LP (CREP 009LP, 2014) and a two-part tape (Aqueducts (2017)) for Dinzu Artefacts, the Henri Charrière-inspired alter ego hasn't been the most prolific of late. He now returns with seven mini-vignettes full of mood swings, silly 'ambiances' and made-up stories to make one dream and wonder. Featuring contributions from Mike Cooper and Yannick Dauby, this mini-album will be the precursor to Papillon's final album, Le Banco to be released on Discrepant in early 2020. For now, recline on that burnt-up sofa chair and enter the schizophrenic trip wonderland of Papillon's Cercueill Flottant. Artwork by the ever-talented Evan Crankshaw.
