GONG

Psychedelic, electro jazz crossover, anarcho-pataphysical hippy idealist revolutionary nursery-rhyme, goddess mantra-trance delirium

Gong est un groupe de space rock fondé par l'australien Daevid Allen, guitariste de Soft Machine à la suite d'un exil forcé en France à partir de 1967.

À la fois délirante, joyeuse et énergique, la musique de Gong allie des mélodies naïves, des rythmes parfois simples et puissants, parfois sophistiqués et des ambiances planantes..
