"It was a long journey.
I went to the Society Islands in august 2000, and I heard singing in a church, in Taha Island.
Outside, it was raining a lot.
Inside the little white church, people were singing marvellous poliphonic sacred songs, "Himene".
A very strong, beautiful feeling.
Since then I tried to found something like that sound, but
i found out it was not easy.
After three or four mistakes, i got it!
This CD is a deep emotion for me, and for anyone that
knows "moana" (the pacific ocean) and the original sounds of the outer islands. And for everyone that loves music."
