For the past decade, French producer Franck Zaragoza has been making music under the moniker of Ocoeur that fuses electronics, glitch, and intricate sound design with atmospheric compositions drawing influences from both classical and cinematic sources. His latest album for the project called Nouveau Départ is rooted in the practice of attentive mindfulness which Zaragoza has taken up in recent years.
"We can all transform our emotions from anger and sadness to happiness and compassion. Such a transformation in thought can profoundly affect the people around us. Nouveau Départ was composed in the spirit of love, empathy, and deep understanding." - Franck Zargoza
Believing that happiness is attainable now, and not only fleetingly tangible in the future, he pleads his case in musical form by taking listeners on an optimistic journey through six luminous soundscapes teeming with the trademark attention to detail and nuance that has characterized the Ocoeur sound from the beginning.
