Our Take

Michel Portal's latest album "Radarin" is a delightful journey into the whimsical world of British English. With his quirky blend of jazz, classical, and electronic influences, Portal takes listeners on a musical rollercoaster that defies genre conventions and expectations.

From the infectious grooves of "Londinium" to the enchanting melodies of "Tea Time," Portal's music is like a breath of fresh air in the sometimes-stuffy world of classical music. His use of traditional instruments alongside modern electronic beats creates a sonic landscape that is both familiar and futuristic.

But what truly sets "Radarin" apart is Portal's playful sense of humor. Tracks like "Pip Pip Cheerio" and "Bloody Brilliant" showcase his witty and lighthearted approach to music, inviting listeners to smile and dance along to the infectious rhythms.

Overall, "Radarin" is a truly unique and enjoyable listening experience that is sure to delight fans of all genres. So grab a cup of tea, put on your best British accent, and let Michel Portal take you on a musical journey like no other. Cheers!
