Lambert's 2023 album “Bon Courage” emerges as a compelling journey through the realms of progressive electronic music, drawing inspiration from the likes of Tangerine Dream and Vangelis. The album, released under Spheric Music, showcases Lambert Ringlage's mastery over a variety of instruments, creating soundscapes that are both atmospheric and melodic. The tracks oscillate between minimalist details and Berlin School influences, with a general nature that leans towards the atmospheric. It's a record that seems to cater to a broad audience, appealing to fans of ambient progressive electronic music as well as those who hold early 80s works of Vangelis and Jean-Michel Jarre in high regard.

The album's compositions are marked by their accessibility, yet they do not shy away from complexity, offering a blend of docile, dreamy structures and more intricate ones. This duality is brought together by Lambert's highly melodic vision, which serves as the album's cohesive force. Standout tracks like “New Horizon” and “Chain of Images” exemplify this, delivering a wonderful electronic music sound that sits comfortably between JM Jarre and Tangerine Dream. The collaboration with former Tangerine Dream member Johannes Schmoelling on “Fading Memories” is particularly noteworthy, highlighting a chemistry that elevates the track to a top-notch electronic music experience.

Overall, “Bon Courage” is an album that manages to sail between the familiar and the exploratory, offering listeners a rich tapestry of electronic sounds that are both nostalgic and fresh. It's an album that should resonate well with those who appreciate the artistry in electronic music and are looking for an immersive auditory experience. Whether it's the adventurous “Runguar” or the introspective “Deep Cloud,” Lambert ensures that each track contributes to the album's narrative, making “Bon Courage” a commendable addition to the genre.
