The Irresistible Force - It's Tomorrow Already

the irresistible force its tomorrow already
The Irresistible Force - It's Tomorrow Already
(2xLP/CD) Ninja Tune ZEN38/ZENCD38, 1998-09-28

Info :
Ah! Si Céline 'donnez moi un Mars' Dion avait fait de la musique, peut-être ne serait-elle pas devenu dix fois plus maigre que son ombre. Non mais c'est vrai, on laisse les gens sombrer dans les affres du show bizz, comme ça, sans prévenir, et un beau jour, il perdent 40 kilos. Les raisons de cette perte de poids sont simple à expliquer: dépression, réalisation soudaine du syndrôme du 'j'suis vraiment trop conne!' et début d'une névrose obsessionelle basé sur 'mais alors, on m'aurait menti!' (classique chez les artistes de majors). Bref, tout ça pour dire que c'est peut-être à cause de ça que Céline n'a jamais fait de la jungle ambient chez Ninja Tune. De toutes façons, il y en a qui s'en occupe plutôt bien déja: c'est le cas de the Irresistible Force. Une force qui vous entraine vers le haut sans que vous puissiez dire quoi que ce soit. D'un coup, la musique se respire comme une odeurs envoûtante, elle embaûme les poumons d'une légèreté douce et suave, se traine dans les moindres pores de la peau, envahit, soulève et repose. En résumé, un album de scotché qui mélange jungle, breakbeat et ambient. Du Ninja Tune grande cuvée... comme d'hab'!
Note jungle breakbeat ambient : 4/5 (Tiff)

Monophonics - In Your Brain - out on Ubiquity Records

Monophonics In Your Brain
Monophonics - In Your Brain
(CD/2xLP/Digital) Ubiquity Records UR299, 2012-05-15

Monophonics are a San Francisco soul/funk band we've been following quite some time. We played their afrofunk track Ageless feat. Karl Denson from their 2010 album Into The Infrasounds (check here), we've selected for the upcoming third volume of the series their epic afro/funk/jam thing Baobab Tree from their 2007 album Playin & Simple, and since we received this fan-tas-tic third album to be released on Ubiquity Records mid-may, we've also played their soul burner There's A Riot Going On in last month's Bag of Goodies selection and kept a few other marvels on the side for some upcoming selections… Their cover of Bang Bang will surely fit a Molesting Laura mix soon, for example… The Monophonics sound is deeply rooted in 70s Funk & Soul, but with a lot of fuzzy psychedelics and bits of 60s garage rock, nods to afrofunk and blaxploitation, rather close to the best productions from Orgone or Daptone's studios, and it's quite understandable that the band left their self-releasing politics to join a worldwide label such as Ubiquity! This one won't leave the Paris DJs stereo for weeks… and vinyl is recommended, as always.

Alan Evans Trio - Drop Hop - out on Royal Family Records

Alan Evans Trio Drop Hop
Alan Evans Trio - Drop Hop
(CD/Digital) Royal Family Records, 2012-05-14

Soulive's drummer Alan Evans is back in the groove with a trio formation. If you're into Booker T. and the MG's, Medeski Martin & Wood, The City Champs, Will Bernard Trio, The Meters and every good organ trio, Drop Hop is a must-have and a future classic. Loaded with instantly catchy tunes, it reveals the obvious talents of Alan Evans' longtime friends: heavy Hammond lines of Beau Sasser (a true revelation on B3 - at least for us) and superb Danny Mayer's Grant-Greenish guitar riffs. We love the rough and dirty sound of this release, one of the Spring's grooviest soul-funkwise platter, along with the new Sugarman 3 and the terrific Wil Blades/Billy Martin duo's album (Shimmy).
