To stay too much in the shade, there is always a time when you want to flourish in the light. This is the journey of Emilie and Igor. Two engineers of the business sound, even if the young woman then specialized in the mastering, having attended the lair of the legendary Ferber studios. Igor having participated for example in the recording of the BO d ‘Emilia Perez by Jacques Audiard. They could have continued to follow a path in which they excel. Except that the passion for music, to make music, caught up with them. A kind of homecoming. The duo practiced the battery very young before Emilie became a talented bassist and Igor chooses for twelve years of the most incongruous bassoon conservatory. Such CVs could only lead to an atypical project.
Echafaudé in a studio tinkered in a common summer in the Var, their first album Come me at buisson road challenges as soon as it is instrumental, LIFT. As wrapped in a benevolent cocoon, but intriguing, we let ourselves be embarked by the sweet melancholy of a diaphanous melody between jazz, post-rock and New Age. The discovery of a very personal universe, where synthesizers are in a good place, which is also expressed through unreal vocal titles. Even if Lianor (the contraction of the two first names, we imagine) gives us proof with Don’t WORRY, SADNESS REMAINS that it is quite capable of delivering an addictive single pop. But we submit that it is not the lighting of the flashy spots of the mainstream affrioler that this delicate tandem aims. Summer, light rather.
With simplicity and realism, the singer tells with tenderness, in piano-voice format, one of the great popular fiestas of our country, rather a follower of the steepness fanfars. Beauty lies in contrast.
The protégés of the British producer DJ Gilles Peterson have fun in Tropical-Jazzz-Soul mode where the brightness of this false rumba is slightly veiled by the melancholy of the melody. Gorgeous.
This brilliant Swedish duo finally announces an album. If everything is at the level of this deafening track Electro-Rap-Drum’n’bass very metallic, this could be grandiose. We certainly believe in it.
Two electronicsmen, Louisahhh and Maelström, associated with a post hardcore trio, Birds in Row, deliver with a sort of sort of techno-punk soundtrack for a next apocalypse. Wrongly?
The Electro-Techno veteran associates with another Grenoble musician for two titles between Detroit techno, Bleep de Sheffield and Souvenirs de Rave. Irresistible.
