In 1989, André Duchesne wrote the soundtrack for Jean Gagné and Serge Gagné's movie Le Royaume Ou l'Asile. He had collaborated with them before: The album Le Temps des Bombes contained four songs that were part of the film La Couleur Encerclée. But while the latter's music fit very well with what Duchesne was doing at the time, Le Royaume Ou l'Asile is quite different than the guitarist's output of the late '80s/early '90s. The music is very moody, atmospheric (more keyboard-based than guitar-driven), fitting the confession depicted on the screen. Dialogues are included within the body of the music, recreating the narrative of the movie. A good album, Le Royaume ou l'Asile pales nonetheless in comparison to other Duchesne albums from 1989-1990 (his large-scale project L' ou 'L and Les 4 Guitaristes de l'Apocalypso-Bar's second LP Fin de Siècle). Still, the album contained a few interesting pieces among the incidental music, namely the Ventures-inspired ballad "Saguenay" and the avant-rock piece "Le Passage." ~ François Couture, Rovi
