Après une absence de quatre années, Femi était revenu par un coup de maître en 2008 avec Day by Day. Africa for Africa lui ressemble comme deux gouttes d'eau, à une importante différence près :
Day by Day avait été conçu à Paris, celui-ci l'a été à Lagos, dans l'historique studio Decca où Fela grava quelques œuvres immortelles et où Femi débuta sa carrière. Et la tension de la
mégalopole nigériane innerve chacun des grooves de ce disque, certains parmi les plus frénétiques enfantés par Femi, comme "Politics in Africa" ou "Now i See", où l'enchevêtrement clavier/guitare
et les riffs des cuivres libèrent des déflagrations semblables à celles de bombes incendiaires. Ses attaques contre la classe politique africaine, son absence de légitimité et la conséquence de
son inanité sur le peuple ("Nobody Beg", "Bad Governement"), n'en ont que plus que d'urgence, même sur les morceaux lents, qui se consument d'un feu inextinguible (l'explicite morceau-titre). Un
léger bémol : la présence de trois morceaux qui figuraient déjà sur le live Africa Shrine.

Vous avez été sensible au dernier Asian Dub Foundation? Alors, ce troisième album de Fun'da'mental vous sera absolument essentiel. A la fois plus varié musicalement (on passe d'une pluie
d'échantillonnages corsés à la manière d'un Prodigy, mais avec de la substance, à une actualisation de la tradition musicale hindoue) et plus extrémiste dans le propos qu'ADF (on trouve dans le
livret une retranscription de la Déclaration des droits de la personne superposée à d'horribles photos d'enfants torturés et assassinés...), Erotic Terrorism est une des missives les plus
puissantes à être issues du mouvement Asian underground anglais. Une bombe à retardement.

Good album. not really roots indeed but very smooth and melodic with the hardest rythm section ever. I think it's really worth listening. Once again, the sound is close to other early 80' 's
wailers works. The voices are more like ballads or folk songs, but the mix is nice and original.

Originally released in 1970, Prisoner Of Love marked Dave Barker’s arrival as one of its most promising and versatile talents on the Reggae scene. Highlighting his skills as both singer and
toaster, the set provided an ideal showcase for Dave’s versatility at the mic, while also perfectly illustrating Lee Perry’s rugged production style of the period. 36 years on, this classic album
has been augmented with an additional 13 Lee Perry-produced recordings from the period, selected by Lee Perry biographer, David Katz.

As the second of four releases in their current "Nomad Series", Cowboy Junkies' new January 18 Demons follows up this past year's excellent Remnin Park with this tribute to their late friend,
tour mate and musical compatriot Vic Chestnutt. Originally the plan was for the band to back up Chestnutt on a new project, says Junkies founder Michael Timmins, a strategy that was first
discussed when Chestnutt guested on the band's 20th anniversary reworking of their classic Trinity album in 2008. Following the death of the the Athens, GA songwriter in 2009, Timmins and the
Junkies sketched out the plans for a special commemorative collection of Chestnutt songs and the seeds of the new album were planted.
"We tried to approach Demons with the same sense of adventure that Vic undertook in all of his projects (or at least that is the way his recordings sound)," observes Timmins. "We let happy
accidents happen; we tried to invest his songs with the same spirit and the adventure with which they were written, at the same time investing them with our own Northern spin. Exploring his songs
and delving deeper and deeper into them has been an intense, moving and joyous experience." From the Crazy Horse-styled distortion of album opener "Wrong Piano" to the wistful desolation of
"Square Room" to "West of Rome" -- a song originally pegged as a Junkies cover fifteen years ago but never completed -- Demons brings the Cowboy Junkies trademarked ethereal understatement to
Chestnutt's song with love, respect and restraint. A remarkable, inspired collection.

Australian songwriter and producer Hugo Race is a prolific and visionary performer, musician, writer and producer. Originally from Melbourne, Australia, Hugo’s creative journey has given him
‘world citizen’ status, having lived over the course of the last 25 years in Sicily, France, Germany, the UK and the USA. Hugo’s songwriting draws on pop culture from rock n roll to soul to delta
blues to avantguard electronic soundscapes.
First introduced to the international stage as a founding member of Nick Cave’s Bad Seeds (he appears on the debut, “From Her to Eternity”, and features on several other Bad Seed’s cds and
various compilations), Hugo then founded the seminal Australian art-punk cult band The Wreckery (1985), released through the White, Rampant, Citadel and Normal labels. (A Wreckery
retrospective,”Past Imperfect”, was released in 2008 through Memorandum/Fuse Records, Sydney).
In Italy, Hugo has produced albums for Cesare Basile (amongst many others), appeared live and in studio with Afterhours, and created genre-bending projects like The Merola Matrix and Sepiatone
(with Marta Collica).
With his band The True Spirit and his various Helixed productions and collaborations, Hugo defies any easy label and has staked out a creative territory between rock, experimental and
psychedelia.
Hugo Race’s most recent releases are with the internationally acclaimed “BKO” by Dirtmusic (recorded in Africa and released by Glitterhouse Records), the electro-acoustic instrumental “Between
Hemispheres” (Gusstaff Records), and the French/USA Lilium’s new album “Felt”, (Glitterhouse).
Hugo Race’s new solo album Fatalists is raw, moody and lyrically driven. Recorded in Italy, guitarist Antonio Gramentieri (Sacri Cuori, Delavega), Arizonan violinist Vicky Brown (Desoto Caucus,
Lilium), percussionist Diego Sapignoli (Sacri Cuori, Delavega), and Dutch bassist Erik Van Loo (Willard Grant Conspiracy) create an acoustic, melodic sound that casts Hugo’s songwriting and voice
in a whole new light.
“We all met up in an old villa in rural Italy on a cold autumn day. I’d just finished a month on tour with the True Spirit and in the tour’s closing stages had come down with pneumonia. Because
most of the songs I had for Fatalists were about death, this seemed a fitting background, and for the duration of the recording sessions I was laid-up with a fever in a room adjacent to the
studio. I could hear the band tracking my songs but couldn’t participate. So the sessions were really produced by Antonio and the other Fatalists, and they gave the songs a different slant.
Having self-produced my recordings for a very long time I thought that here was a chance to step back and let a whole new album materialize, if I could just trust in the process. Cal and Andy
mixed the album at the Mill studio on a hill overlooking the Southern Ocean where the wind blows in off the grey water with a cold metallic edge. There are few neighbours, and like the Cosabeat
studio in the Romagna, a sense of nature and desolation and human insignificance predominates. I never planned to make this record, it just kind of happened – hence the title Fatalists – because
often fate has other plans for us…”

Los Angeles, CA Black Dub, a powerful new group led by celebrated guitarist and producer Daniel Lanois, will release their debut Jive album on November 2. Black Dub is a distinctive, rock-edged
album featuring an outstanding level of musicianship and a soulful, symphonic commentary informed by Jamaican dub culture. The band features Lanois on guitar, New Orleans virtuoso Brian Blade,
who has performed with such jazz titans as Wayne Shorter and Herbie Hancock, on drums, the impassioned vocals of Belgian born Trixie Whitley, the beautiful 22-year-old daughter of the late, great
Texas bluesman, Chris Whitley and rounding out the quartet is famed Louisiana bass player Daryl Johnson.
Black Dub recorded the album in Los Angeles with a focus on live sessions often done in one take. Lanois recently told Rolling Stone magazine "I had been fantasizing about putting a band together
for a long time that would allow me to write music with a funkier angle." The music is accompanied by a series of live off the floor videos that Black Dub has been posting on their new website
(click to watch a performance of the single I Believe In You ).
The eleven tracks on the album include the single I Believe In You, (click to listen) the bluesy, sexy Surely and the beautiful gospel-like Caanan. Two trademark Lanois instrumentals Slow Baby
and Sirens round out the album.
Over the years, Lanois has carved out a reputation as a sonic iconoclast, skilled in conjuring up deep, ethereal, almost 3-D soundscapes. He makes haunting, music layered with electronic waves of
unearthly guitars and eerie pedal steel playing.
Among his credits, Lanois produced Bob Dylan s Grammy winning 1997, Time Out of Mind, and U2 s anthemic 1987 breakthrough, The Joshua Tree. He has produced music for an array of genre busting
artists, including Brian Eno, Neil Young, Willie Nelson, Emmylou Harris and the Neville Brothers.

L'un, Vinicius Cantuaria, est brésilien, originaire de Manaus, en Amazonie, installé à New York au milieu des années 1990 ; l'autre, Bill Frisell, est né à Baltimore (Maryland). Tous deux sont
guitaristes, reconnus pour la finesse et l'inventivité de leur jeu. Ils viennent d'enregistrer un album, Lagrimas Mexicanas (Songline-Tone Field/Naïve).
On ne pouvait rêver meilleur casting, que cette rencontre entre deux musiciens d'envergure planétaire. Le premier, le compositeur-guitariste Vinicius Cantuaria, originaire de l'Amazonie
brésilienne, distille depuis 25 ans à New York, une bossa contemporaine et classieuse, qu'il frotte au son éclectique de la Big Apple. Dans la même cité, le second protagoniste, le guitariste de
jazz Bill Frisell, emmène ses cordes vagabondes sur des terrains be bop, folk, country... remarquées notamment aux côtés de John Zorn. Les deux hommes avaient déjà collaboré au cours de leur
carrière, mais l'album Lagrimas Mexicanas marque bel et bien le désir d'une œuvre commune. Tout en nuance et en sobriété, la voix du Brésilien, assise sur une rythmique et des accords bossa,
chante l'amour, l'absence, la tristesse, leur donne d'infinies couleurs et modulations. Une osmose que rejoint Bill Frisell, avec sa subtilité, son élégance, son jeu atmosphérique et son usage
d'effets discrets, toujours à propos. Cordes et âmes entremêlées, les deux s'écoutent, s'appuient, laissent affleurer des chaloupes samba et des rythmiques cubaines, mexicaines, au gré de touches
impressionnistes. Dans ce jeu de matières et de lumière, il y a la tendresse, le goût de l'esquisse, celui de la justesse, et par-dessus l'épure, la quête de l'essentiel. Jamais une note de trop,
mais un dialogue sur le fil, qui dessine les rêves en apesanteur de l'auditeur-voyageur...
