Irezumi (2) - Endurance - 26-Oct-09 03:31 AM
It is worth paying an honored attention for Manuel Mesdag, who could easily enter to the competition of the greatest ambient artists with his confident and beautifully spiritualized first album Endurance, limited to 1000 copies. Manuel was born in 1985 in France, and even during his young ages he was pretty interested in jazz, rock and classical music (he was mostly amazed by the scores), and as a big booby he was already crazed about the actual house hits. 2006 was the year of his first deep house work, and the label was that Soulstar that can be proud of great compilations such as Latin Soul Fusion and A Lounge Supreme. After then, he composed a few tracks at Groove Baby, but these were released in digital format only. Meanwhile, Mesdag got very good friends with an other style: ambient. In 2007, he got in touch with Hana and Asmorod in Japan, and the result of this meeting was a brand new label and its first release - Endurance.
In order to distance himself from his deephouse project, the guy picked up a new artist name. It is not so surprising: Endurance opens such a window in your mind that is much deeper and more complex than the easily understandable house music. Since the sound of the album was inspired by the Ernest Shackleton’s tragic Antartic expedition, the whole journey has a quite dark, cold and sometimes restless mood which represents the melancholy, the beauty but the instructability too of the night and the darkness. These textures embrace this generally calm and innocent world that Endurance has. Although it may be misunderstood, you still can hear a "winter-ambientish" atmosphere, where you can even smell the snow in your face and see it falling down gently. In spite of that, the temperature of Irezumis sound is definitely not bleak. Winter, which is usually attributed with estranged and meaningless life in literature, philosophy and fine arts, appears now as a gorgeous, timeless landscape. Low and high tunes are alternated, and surrounded by predictable, yet fascinatingly extended loops. Moreover, you can recognise Manuels advance in classical music, too.
Endurance comes in a deluxe six-fold digipak edition with tantalasing artwork by Skyhigh. After such a great debut, we all can be curious about the next step of Snowblood - and Irezumi as well.

José Padilla - Bella Musica - 30-Nov-08 10:26 PM
Have you ever thought about the "perfect Christmas present"? Imagine a friend or a member of your family, whos obsessed with good music, and youd like to give him or her a gift that is the synonime of good music. Well, prof. Padillas Bella Musica is undoubtedly the best choice for such a present.
With a really nice and creative cover it already gives us something different from other well-known chillout compilations. And it is really different, even if you take a look on the tracklist in the back cover. You may recognize there is a variety of nowadays greatest performers (Gabin, Christophe Goze, Ive Mendes, Padilla itself) and the oldies (Gloria Lynne, Love Unlimited Orchestra with Barry White on the top, Baden Powell, Joao Gilberto). General chillout compilations are tend to collect very boring and similar tracks, but you can join a very tasty and colorful session here. Main style is mediterranean, the album itself has a warm influence from the beginning till the end, and besides, chillout, acid jazz, deep house, flamenco, soul and quality pop are very good friends on Bella Musica.
Actually - except track 8 by Emiliana Torrini, which is terrible if you ask me - every track is a simple masterpiece. Padilla has a good sense to gather them together, create an order paying attention to the mood-conception. With this compilation youll get love and power to your heart, and you can also give them to your loved ones - for example with this disc.

Boozoo Bajou - Juke Joint II - 01-Nov-08 10:43 PM
Just like the first chapter, now we can also join a wonderful downtempo hour with the dreat duo. Juke Joint compilations have such a special feeling like nothing else. Boozoo Bajou gather their very favorite artists in one continous mix, and though the styles are very varied, we can still listen to a coherent and mellow set.
Not only are there excellent music can be found here only, but the harmony between them is incredible. Peter and Florian have a huge talent to put the tracks after each other, so that the listener will be engaged with a super colorful session, and yet very pure.
As you may know, "juke joint" means a little, dirty taverne with black people who plays blues during the whole night. Regarding that, the mix starts with classical blues and soul. Then, we turn into trip-hop, hip-hop, jazz, downtempo, reggae and soft rock.
One thing is sure: Juke Joint II (and I as well) will make every evening of yours special and gentle.

Ott - Skylon - 07-Feb-08 06:02 AM
Due to those delayings on this album, expectations were very high for Skylon, I guess. In any case, we talk about Ott, who made Hallucinogen In Dub (2002) and Blumenkraft (2003), so I think I dont exaggerate if I say that his second album was awaited by half of the world. After counting the days we could finally receive it.
Conception and sound is very similar to Blumenkraft. Heavy dub rhythms with hypnotizing psychedelic ambient gems, and some interesting reagge - as always. Ott doesnt renew his well-known stlye (thank God for it!), he only gives us his very characteristic music that we love so much since we first heard it.
From Trunch To Stormness (just like Jacks Cheese And Bread Snack on Blumenkraft) is the longest track on the disc, and opens it slowly and carefully. Not very dynamic, has easy drums, but pefrectly establishes the mood of the album.
The Queen Of All Everything is quite same, but has stronger world. Starts really deep and gradually turns into an acid-feeling which is stunningly beautiful in my opinion.
After these two tracks lead up Skylon, we get a much more powerful track Rogue Bagel which you may have known before from the so-called Twisted DVD. Very great part of the disc! Dynamic, organic and has very cool vocals (one of them is Meena, whose singing appears on Gaudis Bass, Sweat And Tears). This track shows very well why Ott is considered to be the biggest dub magician in the world.
Daisies And Rubies comes next. Has a pretty heavy dub rhythm, but the track itself is very positive, just like Signals From Bob. These two pieces are very trippy and twisted. Amazing tracks!
382 Seaside is a bit weak, if you ask me. Its melody is too weird for me, and at the half of the track it turns into too strong. Not a real bad track, but I would be happier without it on Skylon.
Fortunately Rolfcopter helps it out with its fantastic power, same as on Rogue Bagel. More psychedelic, more hypnotizing - crazier than the third track. Definitely cool!
A Shower Of Sparks is the last track on the disc. Beautiful finish to Skylon with nice flute and amazing guitar. Reminds me a bit to the sound of Shulman.
So, this is it... The long awaited album is finally out. As I read reviews and feedbacks I see quite different opinions. Many people find Skylon low, boring, and so. Me, I think Ott followed his line and made a thrilling work again. It was worth waiting for it for such a long time.

Pushmipulyu - 133 Thursdays - 07-Oct-07 04:19 AM
Until now Interchill has focused mostly on east oriented ambient music and has become one of the greatest label for today in this scene.
133 Thursdays is an absolutely special edition by this labels as the disc is a professional and amazing jazzy chill job. Contains lot of elements which can be known for smooth jazz-lovers, and includes tons of ambient atmospheric vibes, as well.
The disc itself can be divided into two parts. First one is the jazz part, it lengths from track 1 to 7. We can meet with more dynamic works here, such as Take Two More or Hyde Park Fauna, and easier ones, just like Wake You.
The second part is more like average ambient musics. Meditative and very relaxing, in my opinion, and which the biggest surprise for me is that there is no too sharp difference between the two styles.

If you like jazz and chill mixed with each other, than this is the best choice of the year.
