„La Mansarde Hermétique“ is an improvisational ambient / electronica project from Mainz, Germany.
Their first sessions took place in a mansard, a small room located in an attic. The name also is an homage to the graphic artist, cartoonist, and writer Moebius, who among many other things created the science fiction comic series "Le Garage Hermétique" („The Airtight Garage“).

Michael Brückner and Mathias Brüssel are the core members of „La Mansarde Hermétique“ but sometimes other artists have been featured in later events.
"The Attic Diaries“ is a series of albums aiming to publish those live, improvised sessions in non-chronological order.

Episode 6 of "The Attic Diaries" represents one of the more "recent" sessions of the duo again, recorded in the hot summer of 2019 and finds the artists mostly in an - sometimes slightly dark - ambient mood, with some Berlin School sequencing thrown in here and there (mostly though in the bonus track, which is based on a sequence from the original session that can be heard at the beginning and ending - with everything happening in between is a brand new addition).

There is a nice old-fashioned German expression:
"Träume sind Schäume" (lit. "dreams are foams")

The closest English equivalents seem to be "dreams are lies" or "dreams are but shadows". But that doesn't exactly seem to convey the original mood - and then again, the idea of the foamyness of dreams seems to apply to the mood of much of this session's music...
