RSD22 Le DIscopathe Montpellier

It’s spring again, and this uplifting little masterpiece may just be the perfect soundtrack for it: Looks Like You’ve Already Won (MA 64) – the long awaited second album from Boston’s pop duo Ashby, following up their critically acclaimed 2001 debut Power Ballads (“Luxurious, intelligent pop” – Q Magazine).

Ashby have expanded their sound quite significantly – with intricate multi-layered arrangements, a shimmering widescreen production and great contributions from an array of guest musicians, incl. Brazilian arranger Zé Luis (Bebel Gilberto, Brazilian Girls). The album’s ten tracks were recorded in Boston, New York City and Los Angeles.

Richly layered horn arrangements are a trademark throughout the album courtesy of New York City wunderkind arranger Jeremy Adelman. The atmospheric instrumentation is offset by hard hitting funky drums played by multi-instrumentalist Bill Cowie, one half of the duo. The icing on the cake is Evelyn Pope’s pure, understated and floating voice that somehow manages to sound light and deep at the same time.

And Ashby’s greatest signature are, of course, still simply beautiful melodies.

Check it out, folks! And you’ve already won…

Sorie Kondi, Chief Boima (INTL BLK) and Will LV join forces once more for another essential dose of Freetown freestyle.Following on from their ‘Salone’ album in 2016 and the massive single ‘Yeanoh’, the new recordings further hone the group’s unique fusions of Sorie Kondi’s inimitable vocals and the kondi thumb piano with intricate dancefloor electronics. The album was gradually recorded over a period of four years with Sorie on the road in Belgium, Spain and Canary Islands with the main production collaboration between Boima in Los Angeles and Will in London. The result is a varied and colourful set of tracks infusing Boima and Will’s wide-ranging dancefloor influences. Infectious first single ‘She Doesn’t Love You’ features guest vocalist Mariama Jalloh speaking home truths about rejection while future 4/4 dancefloor anthem ‘It’s God’s World..’ features a mighty bassline from prolific L.A. musician / producer Sweatson Klank. ‘The Sweetness Is Gone’ ramps up the dub and sound system energy while ‘How Will It Be For Me In This World’ sparkles on a bed of electronic textures and kondi lines.
Avec « The Orange Album », Gasoline veut rallumer le moteur du blues !Un nouvel album de blues rock dans le jus Amérique des 70’s ? Ne partez pas, celui-ci est réussi : c’est « The Orange Album » de Gasoline.Si Gasoline sonne comme une cavalerie assourdissante de blues rock américain, c’est en fait un duo français qui est aux manettes. A la guitare et au chant, on retrouve Thomas Baignères, anciennement LeSpark, qui gravite dans la (grande) galaxie du rock depuis 2015. A la batterie, il y a Théo Gosselin, peut-être l’un des meilleurs photographes de sa génération. Le duo vient tout juste de sortir un premier album, « The Orange Album », chez Celebration Days Records.L’inspiration est claire, et si par hasard vous ne l’aviez pas, la voici : blues rock des années 70 et éternel rêve américain. L’autoradio grésille sous le moteur, le bitume fait de la vapeur dans le désert étouffant, à moins que ce ne soient les cigarettes des passagers de ce convoi nostalgique.Gonzai
