This interesting release by Pupkulies and Rebecca, alias Janosch Blaul (musician) and Rebecca Gropp (singer) partners in life and in work, is a multifaceted journey into music , which starts with the gentle intro of the title track "Looking for the sea", travelling through more involving sounds such as "Fou de Toi" and "Ici" ones, experiencing more intimate landscapes with "Fullest Moon", to finally return to the extended version of "Looking for the Sea".
In this journey mild atmospheres take turns with lively ones, in order to never bore the listener. The main thread is house, not in the general American sense, but with a more European taste. Infact most part of this release has been recorded in the south of France.
The songs are sung both in English and French. They are way more than simple tracks. Maybe "chansons" is the right description, because they have heart, they communicate unrestrained joy for music and inspire to dance as well. All of the above thanks to the employment of rustling leaves, old synths, an organetta from the flea market. Each sound has been carefully chosen by Sepp Singwald to be tailored for Rebecca's voice and to make it part of the whole final design.
