Because I love this sort of thing, let's face it...

'First, make a list of your overall top-20 artists. Then, for each of these artists, add the 8 most similar artists to your list. Delete any duplicates, add up the number of entries on your list and this will give you some idea of how eclectic your listening habits are. A score of 9 represents an extremely unvaried musical taste while a 160 represents an extremely varied one.'

WIM MERTENS L'HEURE DU LOUP

With L'heure du loup, Wim Mertens presents a work for large ensemble (strings, brass, drums and percussion, pianos and harp).
L'heure du loup includes 11 compositions with French titles:
Pas de chiffres, Hors-nature, Mal vu, Mal dit, Le mal, Pas de lutte, Même terre, La honte, Le regret, Plus de mots, Pas d’âge.
This composition is a musical quest where Wim Mertens explores new horizons, while demonstrating an impeccable skill of the score.
The composer exposes himself in this work, gliding elegantly between the day and the night, and the music subtly accompanies the listener towards that precise moment, L'heure du loup.
This transition then expresses itself delicately through each instrument, each 'tone', each articulation.
The result is an album of large musical richness, and which at the same time is easily listened to, where the music slowly reveals itself and guides the public where he shall want to go.
