about

When it was released in the year 2000, In Poly Sons presented this album as follows: "Alice is to wonders what the Penicillium is to Roquefort. Wonders which punctuate the life of astonishment, small fears, obsessions or absurdities. Not a life in candy pink, where Manichaeism governs rules social life." This veritable “concept-album”, the work of Klimperei, a duo from Lyon (France) at the time, Françoise Lefebvre and Christophe Petchanatz, had long been sold out in its compact disc version, a very beautiful object set with a cover art created by Alfie Benge (well known for her record sleeves for Robert Wyatt).

20 years after its CD release, Alice Au Pays Des Merveilles is published in digital version, on April 1, 2020, a beautiful facetious date quite appropriate.

Cover art by Alfie Benge entitled "Wonderdance". Recorded at Studio Les Deux in 1998/1999. Mixed in year 2000. Mastered by Denis Tagu. The instrumentation of some titles was inspired heuristically by software specially written for the occasion by Dominique Cardon. An album dedicated to all Alice.
