Xing Sa

Xing Sa biography Xing Sa is an instrumental Zeuhl/fusion band based in France. The group is a side project of some members of the band Setna, namely Nicolas Goulay (keyboards), Christophe Blondel (bass) and Nicolas Cand? (drums). The trio has only released one album to date, Cr?ation de l'univers, released in early 2010 on the Soleil Zeuhl label. The album displays strong playing by all three members, with Moog playing reminiscent to that of Benoit Widemann. The band played with several guests on their album, who provided vocals, Chau gongs, and saxophone to augment the band's tight playing.

The band is led by Goulay, which is apparent while listening to the music and the prominent keyboards. At times, the band brings to mind the music of Guapo (a la Five Suns, though not as heavy) and of course Magma and other Zeuhl groups. Currently the members are busy recording a new album with Setna.
