about

On the occasion of the re-issue of Carrousel’s sole album, "La Vie Est Un Mystère," Babani Records is offering a first set of previously unreleased live takes featuring the album’s title track as well as the track “Hip.” Both tracks continue to explore the blues and funk motifs that define Carrousel’s signature style.

Accompanying the songs are their corresponding live performance videos, meticulously restored to capture every detail. These videos showcase the band in all their glory, doing what they do best: performing. This serves as a brief introduction to the musical journey that is Carrousel's music before the main event—the release of the full-length LP, available digitally and on vinyl.

Get on board and enjoy the ride.
