ART DIRECTION AND DESIGN FOR THE ELUSIVE VAN CARTON'S FIRST EP. THE HYPNOTIC LA SAISON CONSISTS OF SLOW, WAVY MUSIC THAT IS PLEASANTLY REPETITIVE. IT INSISTS ON RHYTHMIC CELLS THAT BECOME MANTRAS; THE PROGRESSION IN THE CHORDS ARE VOLUNTARILY LIMITED, CHIMES CAREFULLY SELECTED. THE OBJECTIVE FOR THE PHOTOGRAPHY WAS A RAW UP-CLOSE FEEL WITHOUT MAKEUP OR STYLIST.
