Rose Land

RoseLand, a one-man band from Annecy, in the french Alps, was born in 2005 with an eponymous home-made debut album.

The first official album "Maladivine" was self-produced in late 2007. Thanks to the Myspace network, Maladivine drew the attention of various reviewers from webzines and fanzines (Obsküre, Brokendolls, Sentinels of Time, Mick Mercer Live Journal...).

"Au Mont des Soupirs", released in early 2011, is a 14-track voyage within imaginary landscapes, personal dreams, melancholic memories... Produced by the french label Frozen Wing records, this album kept drawing attention of reviewers : it was selected among the top-thirty albums in 2011 by the english famous author and radio animator Mick Mercer, reviewed by the US website Heathen Harvest (rating 5/5) and in quite a few magazines and webzines in France, Europe and further.

After two appearances in french compilations (in particular "D'Eux" from Fatal Object), a new album, "La Vie est Ailleurs", is released in spring 2015. This self-produced album has again received favorable reviews and interviews, especially from the well-known Obsküre magazine, the main french reference in dark music and culture (rating 76 % and selected as "independent of the trimester" in september 2015).
The project name became in 2015 'RoseLand' in one word...

Just a few quotes..
From the german website Naturmacht about RoseLand :
"Dreamy and melancholic music from another world. RoseLand makes us explore wonderful landscapes created of piano parts, synths, strings and whispers.
A journey beyond the eternal horizon..."
From Heathen Harvest american website:
"Imagine a vast world...sweeping vistas, misty mountains, and the view through a lens of perfected mind's eye. The sun greets the clouds of days long past, blending the darkness and light as one entity. True time has no hold here, for all is timeless. Close your eyes and see the days, the months, the years. See them in the eye of the mountains, see them in all their ageless allure. Now, put a soundtrack to your visions. Better yet, let Rose Land do it. It has been a long time since an album has affected me as such. I simply closed my eyes and tried to take all the beauty in at once. I couldn't"
From Mick Mercer's Live Journal:
"Rose Land's music is just sensitive beauty. Modest magnificence !"
From the french magazine Obsküre
"La Vie est Ailleurs, dont les intimes échos font quitter le temps"
"Peu de choses et l'irradiation du beau..."
