This track was originally written for one of the so-called “Japanese divas” popular at the time, but it was never used.
In the 1990s, whether it was Acid Jazz or alternative rock, the mainstream sound was gritty, hazy, and atmospheric—quite the opposite of today.

Watching Professional arrangers at work in the my sound making recording studio, I learned that even on keyboards, playing in a clavinet style could instantly make the groove funkier.
I remember throwing myself into the keys with all my energy.

The melody itself leaned heavily toward traditional Japanese pop, but recently I replaced the vocals and other parts with AI, giving it a fresh new character.
Because the original data was preserved on hard disk, I was able to recover the multitrack parts and faithfully reproduce the arrangement as it was.

Listening back to those old sounds, I can clearly hear what I myself was listening to at the time.

当時流行していた「JAPANESEディーバ」と呼ばれる女性シンガーのために書いたが、採用されずにボツになった曲。
1990年代は、アシッドジャズにしてもオルタナロックにしても、ざらついた音やもわっとした空気感のあるサウンドが主流で、今とは逆だった。
スタジオで僕の曲を編曲してくださった、プロのアレンジャーを見て、キーボードでClavinet奏法を試すと、それだけでグルーヴィーでファンキーになることを学んだ。
夢中で鍵盤を弾いていた記憶がある。

メロディは典型的な歌謡曲のようだったが、いまはAIを用いて声や他のパートを差し替え、当時とは違う響きで蘇らせている。
この頃のデータはハードディスクに残してあったため、楽器ごとのマルチデータを再現でき、当時のアレンジを忠実に蘇らせることができた。
昔の音を聴くと、その時代の自分が何を聴いていたかが鮮明に思い出される。

Swiss supergroup Alma Negra who will be releasing a 12" on Lumberjacks in Hell next contribute a very fitting remix on B1 that straightens the quirkiness of the Original out and it's their own vocals.

Pre-order "Brume" By Ishkero

✅ https://chuwanaga.bandcamp.com/album/brume

Parisian label Chuwanaga curated by Clémentine & Saint-James is back in the production game with fresh music from Ishkero, maybe the hottest Jazz-Fusion band of the capital city. Going from Jazz-Funk to Afrobeat through Prog and Psychedelic influences, Brume infuses together killer grooves, irresistible melodies and excellent musicianship. The 12inch, coming with its beautiful illustration, reveals a uniformly good yet diverse musical journey.

Behind Ishkero, you’ll find five young and gifted musicians with strong jazz knowledge: Tao Ehrlich (drums), Adrien « Dridri » Duterte (flute & percussion), Antoine Vidal (bass), Victor Gasq (guitar) and Arnaud Forestier (keys). With its strong evocation power fuelled by their youthful energy and creativity, Ishkero’s music is a one-of-a-kind variation on the Jazz genre. Fusion at its best potential! Expect intense rhythmic sections, virtuoso solos, lush FX sections and robust arrangements. Used to play a lot live, the musicians developed a vigorous connection that really shines on stage and during studio sessions.

Collectively with Saint-James as their co-producer, they recorded Brume in summer 2019 at Studio Delta (Paris) with sound engineer David Cukier aka Greita (Disques Flegon). The first track, "Triple B", is an ode to 70’s jazz-funk carried by Jeff Mercadié’s Sax performance. "Tonik Gin"’s mighty jazz-rock groove which comes afterwards brings the genre to its emotional climax. B side starts with the main track "Brume", bringing together long-tailed reverberated guitars and Mizell-like piano chords for a very warm and hazy effect. As the last track, "Gare De l’Ouest" is a nice jazz variation on the Afrobeat genre, again with Jeff Mercadié on Saxophone.

Brume

[PREMIERE] Ishkero - Gare de l'Ouest (Chuwanaga)

The Kraut Jazz Futurism compilation shows what's cookin’ in the new German Jazz scene. Young German bands and a few of the international musicians working in Berlin now. Fresh artists that combine Jazz, Kraut Rock, Afro, Hip Hop and Electronica in a new way.

The first part of the compilation came out last year and was described by The Wire as  „… a re-drawn map of underground Berlin. Refreshingly new, eccentric, badassed and sometimes funny.“ 

This second part goes further. Similar to Gilles Peterson’s We Out Here compilation, where he shows mainly the new hip english Jazz artists, on Kraut Jazz Futurism Kryptox records head honcho Mathias „Kapote“ Modica puts together what’s hot in the new club jazz scene in Germany. And there is a lot cookin’ in Berlin right now. Kraut Jazz Futurism comes out on Kryptox. Sublabel of Gomma & Toy Tonics records.

This is the first presingle by @lukaslehmann & @triorit-t

Release: 19.03.2021
