In a wild cross-section of quality, children program, play and sing Zouk and Gwo-Ka inspired electronic music, under the luminary guidance of Guadeloupean teacher / experimental musician partnership Serge Fabriano and Marie-Reine Lamoureux (of the Fabriano Fuzion project), during the late 1980s.
The album takes its name from the intention imparted to players to "stroke" the computer keyboard to coax a sound, rather than the impulse to hit percussion to create noise. Thus a choir of wholesome voices, startlingly tranquil recorder ensemble playing, and playful electronic beats with dreamy atmospheres, is the result. Uncovered by supreme head Ruf Dug more recently, ﻿Digital Caresse ﻿has been thankfully reissued by BeauMonde Records, contained within its original Keith Haring adorned cover.
