Corps Diplomatique
Dans Ta Nuit
French coldwave act Corps Diplomatique comes to Dark Entries with Dans Ta Nuit, a collection of tracks recorded between
1984-1987. Founded in Marseille by Olivier Aubin, Marie-Eve Bensussan, Patrick Loubet and Nicolas Pélissie, Corps
Diplomatique remain shrouded in mystery. The band only released one 7" during their time, 1988's Paradis I, in addition
to appearing with three tracks on the La Muse Vénale compilation, a holy grail for devotees of the French coldwave. Dans
Ta Nuit brings us nine tracks from this cult band, seven of which have never before appeared on vinyl. These cuts are
raw and unembellished but not at the expense of dramatic tension. Tracks like "Sin of Flesh" and "Eros Phobia" deliver
the kind of high octane mix of despair and ecstasy that coldwave enthusiasts crave. Comparisons are inevitably to be
made with fellow Marseille act Martin Dupont, and the bands were indeed close; Alain Séghir from Martin Dupont lent
Corps Diplomatique synthesizers for their own recording endeavors. Cold hearts care for each other. The cover art for
Dans Ta Nuit includes photographs of the band from a 1985 concert in Marseille, and the record includes an insert that
includes a photograph of the band as well as lyrics and notes.
