"Abyss" is an album dedicated to the memory of Jacques's father, the late André Schwarz-Bart.
«I hope it lives up to the love and admiration I will have for him forever. I wanted to express something infinite: infinite love, infinite grief, infinite awe in front of the mysteries of life and death.
In strictly musical terms, i used mystical rhythms, -rhythms where the One could be anywhere- like Takuta, Lewoz, Kaladja and Padjanbel. A lot of the rhythms on the album are not the traditional versions, but extensions created to fit the emotional content of each composition.» –Jacques Schwarz-Bart
