Modern Way materializes as Teddy Lasry's most accomplished statement - Vinymatic Records presents the visionary 1981 opus where analog mastery collides with futuristic imagination in an essential artifact of French cosmic music.
With Modern Way, Teddy Lasry delivers one of his most accomplished albums, where analog synthesizer mastery meets a distinctly modern vision of instrumental music. Originally released in 1981, this rare record embodies both the elegance of jazz-fusion and the boldness of electronic experimentation, crystallizing a moment when the future seemed infinite and technology promised transcendence. Known for his key role in Magma, Teddy Lasry established himself as a discreet yet essential pioneer of French cosmic music. A saxophonist, flutist, and keyboardist of remarkable versatility, he began developing a rich and personal body of work in the 1970s, blending film scoring, sonic science fiction, and synthetic dreamscapes into a cohesive artistic vision that anticipated electronic music's most adventurous developments.

On Modern Way, he explores uncharted territory at the crossroads of space funk, futuristic library music, and cinematic synthetic landscapes. This isn't merely instrumental music but speculative audio fiction - each track evokes vivid scenes that unfold in the mind's eye: a race against time through neon-lit corridors, the rhythmic pulse of a machine-city, the ethereal drift of digital dreams made manifest. The album captures that unique moment in early 1980s France when electronic instruments had evolved beyond novelty but retained their sense of wonder. Lasry's compositions balance technical sophistication with emotional immediacy, creating an imaginary soundtrack for an era that still believed unquestionably in tomorrow's promise. His synthesizers don't merely replicate acoustic instruments but forge entirely new sonic languages. Modern Way represents library music at its most visionary - functional yet transcendent, commercial yet uncompromisingly artistic. These are compositions that could soundtrack films never made, documentaries of futures that never arrived, advertisements for products that exist only in imagination. Yet they possess an internal coherence and emotional logic that makes them complete artistic statements.

Reissued on vinyl for the first time in deluxe gatefold packaging, Modern Way emerges as a key work for fans of rare electronic gems, atmospheric jazz, and avant-garde music long left in the shadows of history.
