A 25-chapter narrative.
Mystères à la Rue Morgue
by Greg Lawrence
Mystères à la Rue Morgue is a dark, atmospheric concept album by Greg Lawrence, inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s groundbreaking detective story The Murders in the Rue Morgue.
Across 25 instrumental tracks, the album invites listeners into a sonic labyrinth of mystery, suspense, and gothic beauty. Each piece is a musical chapter, evoking scenes, emotions, and characters from Poe’s haunting universe — from dimly lit Parisian alleys to unsettling crime scenes, from moments of deduction to sudden revelations.
Blending cinematic electronica, ambient textures, and subtle rhythmic tension, the album moves like a psychological thriller in sound — cerebral, immersive, and poetic.
Whether you’re familiar with the original story or discovering it through music, Mystères à la Rue Morgue is an invitation to lose yourself in a world where nothing is as it seems, and every detail carries a hidden clue.
