Press Release :
ENTRE L'ARKESTRA DE SUN RA ET SOFT MACHINE, MIND PRÉSENTE LE BIG BAND LE PLUS SPATIAL DU 21ÈME SIECLE!

L'auditeur doit connaître certains éléments, autres que la virtuosité et la sensibilité musicale, pour comprendre et totalement apprécier le contenu de cet album.

Not Your Frequency, collectif d'artistes d'horizons divers, part du principe que chaque artiste détermine sa propre forme d'expression. En plongeant dans son univers intérieur et ses expériences passées, il décide de la meilleure façon d'exprimer ses idées au monde extérieur. Historiquement, l'artiste a toujours été un chroniqueur du temps présent, à des degrés divers. Ainsi, certains sont romantiques, d'autres impressionnistes, ou encore expressionnistes, ou néo-classiques... En citant Max Roach : "L'artiste doit refléter le tempo de son époque, il doit aussi anticiper et créer le changement... Les médias sont remplis de cris pour la liberté venant des quatre coins du monde. Il est impossible pour un homme d'échapper au monde dans lequel il vit: il n'y a pas de tour d'ivoire..."
Ces quelques lignes expliquent pleinement avec quelle force Not Your Frequency se trouve relié avec le monde actuel, mais également son engagement, encore mieux décrit par sa musique. La musique de Not Your Frequency peut choquer par son arrogance, sa créativité, sa tendresse, son espoir ou encore sa demande. Le chant des cuivres, les contours des mélodies, la conduite du rythme amènent l'auditeur à la totale compréhension du tableau en train d'être peint. La liberté, puisque c'est de cela qu'il s'agit, permet à chaque auditeur de trouver sa propre voie, piochant dans la musique les éléments dont il a besoin. Avec cet album, Not Your Frequency espère apporter aux gens la compréhension... Et cette compréhension est la première étape vers le sentiment et l'action. Ainsi, la justification de la musique est intimement reliée aux besoins de l'homme...

(CD/Digital) Comet, late may 2011

©© les Freres Smith - the Smiths brothers - is a Paris based 14 piece collective specialized in afrobeat and ethio flavoured grooves. These music smugglers have been touring the French and European scenes for more than 10 years, always with the same blasting energy. Well known for its explosive live interventions, the band is now releasing its first real album after various collaborations with artists such as Tony Allen, Kutiman, Franck Biyong, or Kokolo, among others. Already accounting as a reference on the Parisian live scene and after a first 7" single on Melting Pot Music, the crew is now releasing its very first album!! 11 crazy afro joints mashed up with as many influences as there are family members in this band, and gathering the cream of the Parisian afrobeat family. Produced by les Freres Smith themselves with support and precious help by mythical afrobeat label Comet Records led by Eric Trosset, featuring the great Tony Allen and the crazy guitarist minister Oghene Kologbo from Fela's Africa 70, the album was mixed and mastered by experienced producer Grant Phabao (T.I.M.E.C.), with the help of afrobeat specialist Loik Dury (Kraked Records) who mixed one of the album's tracks.

Doctor L- Open Window - out on COLORED-INC.

Doctor L Open Window
Doctor L - Open Window
(Download/limited CD) Colored-Inc. COLI022, 2011-01


Doctor L's new album is once again different!
Rather than classify it simply as music, the performer use sound to express feelings he cannot put into words. He's free, free to use sound in any style he may conceive, free to avoid the obligations of any debt to the rules of standard harmony or anything that has gone before him in music. He's free to observe these rules or break them.
Open Window is a walk through the musical universe. It explores new areas, plunges into territories never before investigated, says whatever it pleases without being concerned staying in any one musical bag.
Open Window is a lifestyle, it is beyond category. The sources of its words and music span the centuries. Its concept and interpretations are timeless and boundless. If its contribution can be summarized in a phrase, 'Open Windows' is the sound of now, encompassing all the yesterdays and all the todays in the limitless cosmos of sound.
