WEIDORJE, formed in 1977 by two ex-MAGMA members, Bernard Paganotti and Patrick Gauthier (also keyboardist for HELDON, a group that featured Richard Pinhas) is one of Zheul's children, probably the most faithful and the closest musically and spiritually to MAGMA. One can find a mythology close to MAGMA's one : "the wait of a flying saucer that would come one morning take us with its new values, sane and safe”.
Weidorje - Weidorje (1978)

Rooted heavily in the MAGMA school of progressive rock, WEIDORJE delivering blistering improvisational-like prog jams. WEIDORJE actually were a MAGMA offshoot as members of MAGMA joined to form this band later. Like MAGMA's music, WEIDORJE is heavily dominated by accentuated bass guitar solos accompanied by percuission, keyboards, trumpets and sax. Songs are long and have an extended jam feeling to them giving the band lots of time to change tempo and stretch the songs out to its maximium. This CD has been played to death in my CD player and fans of MAGMA should be placing their orders as we speak. CD packaging is also well done and typical of Musea does provide a nice history with photos of the band.
abulous album, by a 1 album band. Having roots in magma, the influence isnt large, it's life seize. Completely absorbing and continuing the Magma sound, with throbbing bass, wordless chanting vocals, wonderfull drums, repeating paterns and just hypnotising deep jazzy music.
Elohim's Voyage is a 16 minute bass dominated track, with fabulous drums and augmented with some brass and bells, stunning song. The second song "Vilna" is more melodic, with a lead part for the keyboard, not as intense as the first track, and I wouldn't have minded if it was three minutes shorter, a very good track nevertheless. The final song is called "Booldemug" focussed on the jazzy side of zeuhl music (Jazz being an intricate part of Zeuhl bands anyway), a great song.
The two bonus live tracks "Rondeau" and "Kolinda" are nice, but I rarely listen them, as I enjoy albums best as they are ment in the first place. But it's very nice to have those tracks added, as it's the only off-album material that's avalable from Weidorje.
