Kyle Hollingsworth - Never Odd Or Even

the best of 2005 part 1Kyle Hollingsworth Never Odd Or Even
Kyle Hollingsworth - "Never Odd Or Even"
(Sci-Fidelity)

Après 7 ans de tournées et un paquet d'albums avec The String Cheese Incident, le pianiste/organiste/claviers Kyle Hollingsworth a réuni quelques amis et pointures de chez lui (Boulder, Colorado) pour enregistrer son premier album solo: Ross Martin à la guitare (Drew Emmitt Band, Tony Furtado Band, Theory Of Everything...), Matt Spencer à la basse (Vibe Squad avec Jamie Janover, Grandpa Mojo, The Motet), Dave Watts à la batterie (The Motet) et Jens Ingber aux percussions (The Motet)...
Presque entièrement instrumental, cet opus semble bien parti pour devenir un classique parmi les quelques très bons albums de jambands enregistrés en studio. Le dernier String Cheese Incident, "Untying The Not" figurait déjà en 2003 parmi nos préférés de l'année avec sa bonne dose de psychédélisme entre Spirit et Pink Floyd, teinté de jazz-rock. Ici, comme on pouvait s'y attendre avec un musicien élevé au Grateful Dead, à Herbie Hancock et à Chick Corea, le jazz prend la place. Seulement voilà: ajoutez aux grooves à l'orgue B3 de l'electronica spatiale, du funk latino, du rock psychédélique, du gospel afro-américain et une pincée de country, et vous comprendrez mieux pourquoi cet album figure en bonne place dans cette sélection 2005! Si on jette une oreille d'un peu plus près, on pourra aussi rapidement se rendre compte que les invités ne manquent pas non plus, avec le saxophoniste Joshua Redman, la sensation de la pedal steel guitar Robert Randolph et le collègue de SCI Michael Kang à la mandolin électrique. Une perle parmi les albums studios de jambands, je vous dis...

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.
