Black Magic - Hard 2 Find Vol.5
(Download/Limited CD) Colored-Inc. COLI019, 2010-12-20

An artistic revolution has been ongoing these recent years in Paris, with some unique producers breathing new life into the idea of jazz music, upping the standards of sound and production to those of the masters - Miles Davis, Lee Perry, Fela Kuti, Sun Ra, Traffic and the such...

From the message-intense material, impressionistic soundscapes and folk musings of Doctor L to the dancefloor-filling cosmic afro and soulful roots reggae vibes of Grant Phabao, the Colored-Inc. collective has managed to create a solid universe, showcasing the many facets of the jazz spectrum in the shape of a free-minded label, undoubtly this year's most ambitious one.

Black Magic is their fifth experience in cooperative expression, a voodoo-themed concept album of music suitable for the dancefloor or the living room, a fresh wave of Jazz, Soul, Afro & Reggae production, untangling the scribble of the wicked world with clarity and maturity, and bringing Paris back to its rightful place, the cultural center of the world.

La Famille Farrell - Exposition à la Maison populaire (Montreuil)

Monday 27 September 2010, 00:23

La Famille Farrell - Une exposition Seine-Saint-Denis style!
du 4 septembre au 31 octobre à Mains d'Oeuvres, du 29 septembre au 17 décembre à la Maison populaire

D'origine irlandaise, Seamus, Liam et Malachi Farrell vivent en France depuis une trentaine d'années. Très unis, les trois frères partagent le même engagement artistique: un univers urbain explosif connecté à la réalité sociale et politique de leur temps. La Famille Farrell est composée de deux plasticiens (Seamus et Malachi) et d'un musicien (Liam alias Doctor L) qui pratiquent un art accessible et immédiat, mélange foudroyant d'écologie, de robots et de culture hip hop. La Maison populaire et Mains d'Oeuvres les invitent à collaborer pour une exposition spectaculaire construite sur le modèle d'un scénario de blockbuster. Machines, sons et projections fusionneront dans un décor brut et foisonnant inspiré par l'imaginaire d'un avion dont la trajectoire se déroula en deux temps: décollage à Mains d'Oeuvres et atterrissage à la Maison populaire.

vernissage à la Maison populaire mardi 28 septembre à partir 18h

The Drug Store - Hard 2 Find Vol.4 - out on COLORED-INC.

Tuesday 21 September 2010, 23:49

The Drug Store - Hard 2 Find Vol.4
(Download/Limited CD) Colored-Inc. COLI009, 2010-09-06

The Drug Store is the first venture for the Colored-Inc. label into Psychedelic Folk & Rock vibes. Blending Nigerian harmonies with American Folk and Jazz, Reggae chants with Stoner Rock and Hip Hop beats or Nyabinghi percussions, freaky electronics with Afrobeat or deep poetry, James Bond-like arrangements with 21st century Chicago Soul, and inviting some famous Zulu Nation King & MC to a deep garage-blues session, this is indeed a kind of a Multi-Colored Thing, a nearly hallucinatory record pushing the Colored-Inc. label's identity towards more edgy forms of African, Carribean and Afro-American music.

Production duties by Erik Rug (3), Doctor L (1,4,6,8,10), and Grant Phabao (2,5,7,9), with star guesting Amayo from the Fu-Arkist-Ra and Allonymous (USA), Kiala Nzavotunga and Tony Allen (from Nigeria), The Jays (from Jamaica), Le Damn Dog, Kactus Hunters, The Joslyns and The Farell Girls (from Paris)

Kactus Hunters - Silver Clowd
(Limited CD/Download) Colored-Inc. COLI015, 2010-10

The two scientists of post-psychedelic progressive rock of the 21st century are back with a second album, nearly a decade after the first one, and they’ve been travelling through new territories, exploring new textures and tasting new flavors while keeping a similar vibe that only belongs to the Kactus Hunters!

Haunting voices, conscious while poetic lyrics, dope beats and soft rock guitar lines, the Kactus Hunters push things further with attitude, humor and poetry!

Kactus Hunters are :
• Doctor L / musician, performer, irish, composer, producer, film maker, father of 3...
• Mister Baby / actor, cooker, singer, performer, writer, musician, composer...

Doctor L - Land-Escape
(Download/Limited CD) Colored-Inc. COLI005, 2010-05-31

In those troubled times, where the world goes upside down, we do need good medecine to cure our sorrows... Hopefully the good Doctor is back with a new remedy, a full LP set untitled Land-Escape.

It's free and improvised music with attitude, definitely different and personnal stuff, uncompromised yet popular, one for the road or for your living room, a great combination of live sounds and studio wizardry.
