The Real Thing - Selected by Rare Moods

the best of 2005 part 1The Real Thing - Selected by Rare Moods
Various - "The Real Thing - Selected by Rare Moods"
(Mind Records)

Voilà une compilation qui démarre très fort, avec un clin d'oeil à un groupe globalement inconnu et pourtant ultra-mortel, Drugs, nos hippies funkmeisters favoris (dont l'album est disponible dans le TIMEC SHOP pour les retardataires), remixés ici par Doctor L, qui réalise cette compilation-album pour lancer son nouveau label Mind. Le disque est très difficile à décrire, à chroniquer, mais on ne peut que considérer son achat comme essentiel, obligatoire et indispensable.
C'est de la musique du monde de Paris, de la musique de métropole avec une vision futuriste, mais sans vraiment de noirceur. Une musique de voyageur, de cités, multi-raciale et multi-culturelle, avec une touche personnelle qui lie vraiment le tout. C'est une pas mauvaise vision de l'humanité, un disque ensoleillé, roots, varié, novateur, latin-funk-afrobeat-electro-jazz... Tous les styles y sont mélangés et séparés à la fois. Un disque universel. Et je pèse mes mots.

©© 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
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.
