This is the first volume of the Sensationnel series released by Illusion Production in 1983. Volumes 2-4 of this series were posted by Mutant Sounds last year, and Volume 5 was recentlyposted by Continuo.
Like all the other volumes, booklets and other inserts with contributions from the artists were included with the music. Paphio23 has provided a link to these for volume 1 here.
Standout tracks for me are the two synth pieces from Philippe Laurent, a Merzbow track with drum machines (another excellent early track), one of my favorite DDAA songs and the contributions from Rock Critics & Prince Emile de Ly (presumably Bernard C.).
The tracklist below is adapted from the discogs entry for this which appears to be incorrect. There are two tracks by Jacques & Bernard C, not one as listed there. I am only guessing that their two tracks are in succession, so there is a chance the tracklist is incorrect.

A1 Philippe Laurent Exposition Partie 5
A2 Legendary Pink Dots, The A Day At The Dreamies
A3 P16.D4 Physisch Erschöpft
A4 Deux Pingouins 3 Essais Musicaux

A6 Un Département Tu Veux Ma Radio
A7 Prince Emile De Ly Alaijozi Con Carmen
A8 Germain Hubert Ales Swinging Pool
A9 Jacques & Bernard C. Moiteur Tropicale
A10 Jacques & Bernard C. Humidité Urbaine

Again, thanks to Mutant Sounds, Continuo & Paphio23 for the other uploads & everyone who visits here and enjoys the music. Now that I am getting settled in the very cold Twin Cities area, I hope to get back to posting regularly. I sure seem to have quite a list to begin with from previous requests...
Enjoy Side A

hi,
nice to see you'r back,thanks for this excellent post. For requests: the Vanity 7" would be fine. I see your gonna post the Blah Blah blah 7",
If you want I can post there album for you.
thanks.
This is awesome. Better than previous Sensationnel volumes I've come across. Thanks for posting this, and thanks to the obliging Paphio23 for the booklet and inserts scans, very much appreciated. Besides, all Illusion Production/DDAA members were out of art schools from the West of France, so they had a solid background in visual arts as well, and it shows even in their mail art-like xeroxed material. Additionally, I'd be curious to know how you can get hold of this stuff in the US. US distro or european mail order? One last note: I'm adding you to my blogroll in the hope to challenge you posting more excellent stuff like this. Take care.
Pete - don't have either of your requests
Cranio - Gonna try and get to the Blah tonight
Continuo - All the IP stuff I've posted is long out of print, so pretty much ebay and other on-line sources is the best bet. Thanks for the add. will do the same.
