The Beatforest Dance Jams

December 5, 2008: What does it mean when we speak in different ways to different people? Is it a sign of duplicity or the mark of a complex sensibility? Novelist and critic Zadie Smith takes a look at register and tone, from the academy to the streets, through black and white, with examples.

The Robert B. Silvers Lecture is an annual series created by Max Palevsky. The series features writers and thinkers whose fields correspond to the broad range of Mr. Silvers’s interests in literature, the arts, politics, economics, history, and the sciences.

Elizabeth Rose - The Good Life (option4 Remix)

One Bird Records is proud to present a new remix by CHLLNGR, the alias of Copenhagen-based Steven Jess Borth II, who has previously remixed The xx and Primary 1.

SINGLE RELEASED JUNE 6 ON LIMITED-EDITION HAND-CRAFTED NOTEBOOK: http://onebirdrecords.bigcartel.com/product/bonjay-stumble-creepin-limited-edition-notebook

The dancehall pop sounds of Toronto-based duo Bonjay set the spine a-tingle with basement rattling tunes set to vocals that stand the hairs on end. Born out of Ottawa's legendary Disorganised parties, what began as a simple crowd pleasing party lark has developed into a serious commitment to songwriting and production, including remixes for labels like Mad Decent, Ninja Tune and Ghetto Arc (XL Recordings).

Drawing their name from Spice Island slang for “good god!”, singer Alanna Stuart and multi-instrumentalist Ian ‘Pho’ Swain have opened for bands such as Twin Shadow, tUnE-YarDs, Glasser, as well as playing alongside club acts Kid Cudi, Diplo, South Rakkas and Kingdom – a mix that fits a unique proposition of dancehall innovation, twisted pop sentiments, and R&B hooks. It’s an unlikely mix, but one that makes sense coming from two strong, contrasting personalities brought together in one of the world’s emerging melting pots.

"'Creepin' is a conversation between a brutally honest friend and a woman who's fighting to hold onto a relationship not worth saving,” says singer Alanna Stuart. “She’s afraid her time is running out and she’ll secure a man - any man - out of fear of being alone," Alanna explains. "Her friend asks her 'Why'd you fight so hard? To deepen the grooves of your scars? It’s a blind chase in the dark. Know the good in you...'”

The Fly: "a thoroughly refreshing mix of Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ sultry sass, Dirty Projectors’ complicated pop and the klaxons and dancehall of the clubs Bonjay was conceived in"

The Stool Pigeon: "capable of a poise and maturity well in advance of their bashment roots, adding pop hooks and Stuart’s gorgeous, R&B-inflected vocals into the melting pot... a group we’re properly excited about"

The Guardian: Toronto-based duo who mash up dancehall bass culture with electro dance vibes and hypnotic R&B hooks

Bonjay - Creepin (CHLLNGR Remix)

Barbatuques is a Brazilian collective that produces music mainly through their bodies, like beatboxing, clap of hands, whispers, finger claps, hitting their chests, tap dancing etc. resulting in stunning sounds. Now hot Italian producers Milangeles and The Clerk have teamed up to rework Barbatuques´epic "Baiana" anthem in contemporary bass style.

"Ingenue" is the first single from Bonjay's much-anticipated debut album, Lush Life.

FADER: "Listen To Bonjay’s “Ingenue,” A Beautiful Anthem For Growing Up"
http://www.thefader.com/2017/09/11/bonjay-ingenue-premiere

Lyrics:

Hey
Feeling abashed
There's no need
There's a freedom
In the unknown
Feel it
It will pass
Now is a time for savouring

​Ingenue
Is curious
Acronyms
Make her delirious

​Ingenue
Considers winning
Pink lace
In games of spinning

​Ingenue
Let go
Of the hand
Of the Holy Ghost

​Seem sure
The new folks
But ingenue
It's all a hoax

​CHORUS

​Ingenue
Think you won't win
Think if you carry weight
That it's a sin

​Now you're closing up
Open up again
How am I to know
If you won't let me in

​Ingenue
I'm not right
But, if I may
Let me shine a light

​Think that my face
Reflects the truth?
Stop looking, my love
It's in you

CHORUS
