Girl In Red
If I Could Make It Go Quiet

Le prodige Boy Pablo (Bergen Norvège) présente son premier album "Wachitio Rico". Un opus largement attendu et qui ancre durablement l'artiste sur la nouvelle scène Indé Rock mondiale. Après deux EP, Nicolas Muñoz et sa bande souffle un vent de fraicheur et casse la morosité ambiante de cette période parfois difficile !L’histoire de Wachito Rico a débuté cet été avec le clip de hey girl, premier chapitre de ce qui est devenu une mini-série en cinq épisodes. Les clips, réalisés par bedroom, racontent une histoire d’amour entre Wachito Rico (incarné par Nicolas Muñoz) et Sofia, et met en scène les amis de Boy Pablo (on aperçoit notamment les membres du groupe, ou encore Jimi Somewhere) dans un univers retro et décalé, à la manière de Wes Anderson. L’album est pensé comme la bande-son de cette romance, et nous fait passer par toutes ses étapes, de la rencontre (hey girl) à la séparation (rest up, leave me alone!).

Herbert started his now cult domestic house album series back in 1998. Around The House was the first one, then came Bodily Functions in 2001 which was made from, well, recordings of internal noises generated in Herbert's own body. The maverick British producer now continues the series ahead of the much anticipated summer premier of his decade-in the making Symphony of Noise documentary. Musca finds the producer collaborating with eight singers to make for both intimate late night sound and club ready tunes that are lush, sophisticated and seductive. Word is, making this album was solace for Herbert, and is surely going to provide just as good a place to retreat for those of us listening in.

Le label Born Bad a sorti une compilation rendant hommage à l’europop et à la proto-house française des années 1990 à 1995.Curaté par les DJs Belec et Sainte Rita, l’album revient sur l’histoire de « la variante franchouillarde de la dance pop anglaise », s’interrogeant sur l’arrivée de la house en France et ses liens avec la variété de la fin des années 80, alors que les premières musiques électroniques étaient à la fois omniprésentes et diabolisées.Au programme : dix pépites nostalgiques francophones agréablement kitsch aux influences new beat, dream house, pop, trip hop et rap, reflétant parfaitement l’ambiance ingénue et rêveuse du début des années 90.While the French were building towards the global explosion of French Touch and the arrival of Daft Punk on the world stage, the British were busy getting off their tits in fields up and down the country to a mix of rave, breakbeat and jungle. This fascinating collection is the sound of a load of French artists essentially having a go at British dance music, aping rave culture and emulating club trends. It's curious and fun, with melodic tracks, expansive grooves and plenty of sinewy synths all making a new dance language that is familiar yet different to the one we all know and love. Importantly, it all works well.

Released for the first time outside of Japan, the album features remastered sound, eye-catching OBI strip and download card plus the original 4 page insert with lyrics and full line up. Undoubtedly one of the most important Japanese albums of the 70s.Wewantsounds Is Pursuing Its Ambitious Akiko Yano Reissue Program With The Release Of "japanese Girl", Her Landmark Debut Album From 1976.

In 1973 She Released A 7" With The Group Zariba And Caught The Attention Of A&r Man Koki Miura. She Then Recorded One Song, "oinaru Shiino-ki" With Haruomi Hosono On Bass And Drummer Tatsuo Hayashi (who Features On Many Hosono Albums And Also Hiroshi Sato's 1979 Album Orient) With A Full Album In Mind.After A Marriage With Musician/producer Makoto Yano And The Birth Of Her Son (named Fuuta), Yano And Her Team Resumed The Recording Of The Album And Decided To Pitch Little Feat For A Collaboration As She Loved The Group. Against All Odds They Said Yes And Yano Left Tokyo For Los Angeles In March 1976 To Record A Full Side With Them. The Legend Has It They Found It So Difficult To Keep Up With Yano's Compositions They Returned Some Of Their Fee. The Session Was Nevertheless Stunning And Lowell George Even Compared Yano To Stevie Wonder. The Little Feat Blend Of New Orleans Groove Matched Yano's Melodies Perfectly, As Witnessed On "funamachi-uta Part 2." Originally A Traditional Song From The Nebuta Festival In Her Hometown Of Aomori (part I On Side 2 Gives A Good Idea Of What The Original Form Sounds Like), The Little Feat Version Is A Formidable Slow-funk Workout Not Dissimilar To Their Classic, "spanish Moon", Serving Yano's Beautiful Vocals And Sense Of Groove To Perfection. The Whole Side Is A Match Made In Heaven, Showcasing The Classic Little Feat Line Up At Their Funkiest With Yano's Unique Japanese Twist.The Japanese Side On The Album Gives A Great Snapshot Of The Tokyo Music Scene Of The 70s With Many Musicians Gravitating Around Haruomi Hosono (and Present On His 1973 Classic Album 'hosono House' Including Sound Engineer Kinji Yoshino) And Also Several Musicians From Japanese Band, The Moonriders.Recorded At The Legendary Onkyo Haus Studio In Tokyo, The Sessions Mix Singer-songwriter Sensitivity And Pop With Traditional Japanese Sounds And Instruments Like The Shinobue Transverse Flute, The Koto String Instrument Or The Tsuzumi Hand Drum As Played On "hekoriputaa" By The Legendary Percussionist Kisaku Katada Who Was Appointed Living National Treasure By The Japanese State In 1999; Together They Create A Beautiful East-meets-west Mix Masterfully Driven By Yano's Creativity And Unique Talent.A Breathtaking Debut Album That Made Akiko Yano One Of The Most Important Artists To Emerge From The 70s, Japanese Girl Has Since Become A Milestone In Japanese Music With A Recent Documentary On Nhk Tv Telling The Whole Story Behind This Classic. Wewantsounds Is Now Proud To Present This Essential Album To The Rest Of The World.
