Jon Kennedy - Useless Wooden Toys
(CD) Grand Central GCCD136, 2005-04-01

Info :

Un album qui risque fort d'être incompris par une grande majorité comme un disque sous-produit, alors qu'il s'agit de l'évolution naturelle d'un artiste qui en a finit de jouer des boucles et se consacre désormais à la production de chansons, avec des instruments et un mix volontairement bien "rough". Volontairement brut de décoffrage afin de rendre son âme à sa musique, ce troisième opus de Jon Kennedy est pourtant son meilleur et il est évident que ce raw funk'n'soul urbain et perpétuellement éclectique ne va pas tarder à exploser, sil continue à progresser ainsi à chaque disque, toujours en phase avec son époque. À priori, quelques mois de tournées avec un vrai groupe vont passer, et Jon reviendra en 2006 avec un nouvel album encore plus bouillonnant. Et tout ça avec un groove reconnaissable en quelques secondes comme étant "du Jon Kennedy". Un talent UNIQUE et inclassable.

Speech Debelle - Freedom Of Speech - out on Big Dada Recordings

Speech Debelle - Freedom Of Speech
(CD/LP/Digital) Big Dada Recordings BD193, 2012-02-06

Two years since winning the 2009 Mercury Music Prize for her debut album, Speech Therapy, and having ridden a rollercoaster through life since then, Speech Debelle is ready to drop her second collection of music. Entitled Freedom of Speech, the album sees Speech turning from introspection to stand up, face and engage with the world around her, spitting confident themes of revolution and love. A first taste of the album came in the aftermath of this summer's riots, when Speech reacted immediately, leaking the track Blaze Up A Fire, (also featuring Roots ManuvaRealism), a track about political revolution written months before. Now the build-up begins to the release of Freedom of Speech in early February 2012 with the free download of the track Studio Backpack Rap. From political to musical revolution, Speech describes the track as being "all about virtual instrumentation and an ode to KwesSpeech Therapy, while showcasing just one aspect of her remarkable new album.
