“Five episodes from Le garage hermetique” is a trip into the imaginative world of French artist and writer Moebius (Jean Giraud) freely transformed in music by Di Bos. It’s part of a larger project called “Le Garage hermetique de Jerry Cornelius” (in collaboration with other Italian musicians: Hysm?duo, Torba, M!, Clov, aaldo, Vip Cancro) that will be released at the start of 2012 by Hysm. Sound-Collage music for a short psychedelic journey!

In his own words, "my first efforts were a real experimental mishmash, but they at least were an initial, important step en route to further developments."

Maybe it’s this curiosity for both musician and listener that makes C. Reider such a daring and admired experimental sound artist.
