Woodkid, de son vrai nom Yoann Lemoine, est à la fois auteur, compositeur, interprète, graphiste et réalisateur. Après des études d’illustration et d’animation à l’école Emile-Cohl à Lyon (il y décroche son diplôme avec mention), il décolle pour l’Angleterre où il étudie la sérigraphie à l’université de Swindon.
De retour sur Paris, il réalise en 2006 une série d’esquisses pour pour Marie-Antoinette de Sofia Coppola. Woodkid s’est surtout fait connaître à partir de 2007 pour les clips qu’il signe pour plusieurs artistes français comme Yelle (en 2008) et Nolwen Leroy (2009).

Entre 2009 et 2010 c’est la publicité qui lui ouvre les bras. Il réalise la campagne ” Graffiti ” contre le SIDA, elle est vue plus de 10 millions de fois sur YouTube. Il reçoit pas moins de cinq Lions au Festival international de la publicité à Cannes.

En 2011, après avoir réalisé des clips pour plusieurs artistes, il décide de sortir ses propres compositions avec un premier EP. Son single ” Iron ” est accompagné d’un clip qu’il a lui-même réalisé. Tout en noir et blanc, ce premier clip personnel laisse entrevoir l’univers très particulier de cet artiste.

Woodkid - Iron (jack Essek Edit)

Album Preview

Life on Land’s Edge is our ode to migratory shorebirds, one of the world’s most extraordinary, and most threatened, species groups. Every year, millions of these birds travel on vast migratory corridors, Flyways, between their breeding and feeding grounds. Our Flyway, the East Asian-Australasian Flyway, stretches from the tundra of Alaska and Siberia in the north, to the coastlines of Australia and New Zealand in the south. For shorebirds, who dwell beyond society’s awareness on overlooked tidal mudflats, at the edge of the land and the sea, migration is in their DNA. Some of these birds have broken records that defy the imagination, flying uninterrupted for more than 13,000km.

Characterised by their extraordinary physical feats, diverse beaks for feeding in deep mud, and their soft, haunting calls, the 58 species that use our local Flyway have suffered the steepest population declines recorded anywhere in the world in recent decades. This, like so much ongoing degradation of the natural world, is due to climate change, human disturbance and loss of habitat. Certain species have experienced declines of between 60-90%, some with only a few hundred individuals remaining.

The music on this album comes from our live production of Life on Land’s Edge, which tells the story of these awe-inspiring birds through scientific and traditional knowledge, poetry, soundscapes, music and imagery from across the Flyway. In partnership with BirdLife Australia, eight new Australian compositions were commissioned, and then juxtaposed with works by Philip Glass, Dai Fujikura and Vivaldi. Life on Land’s Edge takes audiences on an epic journey alongside migratory shorebirds as they connect continents and cultures: a musical and visual odyssey, and an uplifting call to action.

Nickodemus and the Turntables on the Hudson crew return for Volume 10 of the long running compilation series, showcasing the eclecticism of the infamous, now worldwide party. Entitled “Uptown Downtown”, this compilation CD paints a picture of the dancefloor from the beginning to the end of the night at TOTH’s NYC Summer 2015 Uptown home (La Marina in Washington Heights) and their year round downtown home, above the clouds at Le Bain on top of the Standard Hotel in Manhattan. Deeper, electronic house vibes are represented by the likes of Bonobo, Claptone and Alex Barck, while the Latin and Afrobeat sound is of course heavily represented through tunes from Captain Planet,  Quantic, Alsarah & The Nubatones, Novalima, Chancha Via Circuito, Jose Marquez and more.

Douglas Greed has arrived in Berlin and continues his circles. For the shining title track of his new Fenou release "True Blood" he gets vocal support from MAMA, who may know some of her productions with Tiefschwarz or Argy. „Just Keep Swimming“ is a magical, hypnotic tune just perfect for the sunrise. On „Silly Me“ he also plays with ambient sounds. But the dry and stumbling beat propels you until Monday noon. After his split EP with Dapayk solo in 2015 and the previous "Fenou Bouquet Vol.3" compilation, we are pleased to have Douglas back with us.

The 50th release on Sol Selectas Records comes from the label founder himself - Sabo, and features the musical talents of a mother & her son, as represented by the title Earth & Sun. Twenty year old Elijah Sage plays the ancient ravanhatta string instrument on the opening track "Young Wisdom", weaving an emotional mid tempo blanket to lie under the Sun.  "Obatala" is the story of the Sky Father Orisha, who creates all human bodies according to Yoruban mythology. The deep tribal groove is complemented by the vocals of Elijah's mother Nikila Badua, representing the roots of the Earth.

Nicola Cruz from Ecuador, delivers a stellar remix of "Obatala"  taking us high into the Andes Mountains, where organic percussion and live marimbas flow like wind through the valleys. Blond:ish transforms "Young Wisdom" into a psychedelic tech house trip, adding infectious build ups and mind-altering  drums for peak time energy. And lastly Paris' Birds of Mind take us on a voyage into deep bliss with their ethereal reinterpretation of "Young Wisdom". 
The artwork by Helia Jamali, represents the loving balance between the Earth & Sun, and the energy they have created, makes the puppy flower dance in the desert wind.
