On June 8th, film and off-Broadway composer and recording artist Melody Nicolette Pilotte, who creates music under the project name Le Bas-fond, will be releasing her 5th full length record, 'The Course of Empire.' Written in the span of two months, 'The Course of Empire' is Le Bas-fond's 3rd record in an 18th month period.
Based on the painting series by Thomas Cole of the same name, 'The Course of Empire,' covers apocalyptic themes of the ends of eras: the destruction of superpowers--from global powers to power couples, the downfall of civilizations, vermin infestations, death, abuse and acute losses such as issues with fertility. "It's the apocalypse, so we might as well dance!"
