Title: Invisible Tape
Lyriks by Jean-Daniel Granruaz

Body language of the mind
Part of the swinging universe
I am here now and try my best
I get oﬀ the track and I ﬁnd my way
 
I would go chant to everybody 
Oh its necessary to see your soul
I start moving a mountain climb
everything i have is going whith me

Invisible Tape, that holds all things together 

I found my way to tell the story
My spirit needs the sound of the earth
I start moving a mountain climb
everything i have is going with me

Invisible Tape, that holds all things together 

Music is part of the vibrating universe
Art is the body language of the mind 
Culture is not something visible, being an invisible bond that holds things together
Above all, for the sake of the soul, the body must move

Invisible Tape (Jeanruaz Group Live)

Dead man under my bed

I summoned up courage last night
I couldn’t fall asleep even I was tired
I prowled in the dark to listen what he said
I spoke with the dead man under my bed

I turned to him with the same old stories
telling him about this day’s glories
Asking for some things they go through my head

He stayed in silence, was I still awake 
I spoke with the dead man under my bed
He stayed in silence, no answer I should get
I spoke with the dead man here under my bed

I thought I was conscious of what I knew
Looking for explanations to my points of view
searching for solutions, questions in my head

I spoke with the dead man under my bed
He stayed in silence, no answer I should get
I spoke with the dead man under my bed
He stayed in silence, was I still awake


What do I look for here under my bed
He stayed in silence no answer I should get
For someone who’s deaf to my words
And someone who’s dumb to my ears
It came to my mind to run away

That’s no more a joke what I yet play

A warm hand it thrilled on my shoulder
It’s surely the fear I feel growing colder
I call it patience that’s what you’re wanting

Stop to your conscience that’s what you’re hunting
Remember answers will take their time
even for a dead man like I’am

When Yelli Yelli was a young girl, her mother would often play her recordings of traditional Kabyle music. The songs seemed so mysterious, sung as they were, in a language that she couldn’t understand. But the music captivated her child-like imagination, bound together in a twin dance of melody and rhythm, the songs seemed to bring the voice of a whole people to her ear, planting a seed in her that would later bring her to explore the musical and cultural trace of her own origins. 

The years passed and the child grew up but she never forgot the voices of Kabylie that her mother had played her. Having recorded two Folk albums under the name of Milkymee and looking for new musical routes to take, she met songwriter and producer Piers Faccini and decided to delve, with his guidance, into the secret sounds of her childhood memories. 
And lo and behold, the branch bore fruit and out sprung the true voice of the child her grandfather used to call, Yelli Yelli or “young girl” in Kabyle.

Yelli Yelli - Yemma (From debut EP - out now)

It is a rock-pop song that i composed in ladino language. That's my mother tongue and the words of this song are about relationship. A distant love that you keep in your hearth. I hope you will enjoy it.

STEVIE WONDER Acer Arena, October 22 

"ARE you with me? Are we together?" cried Stevie Wonder at the top of a reggae-tinged Master Blaster, asking perhaps the most superfluous question in the history of questions. If love was in need of love in 1976 - as the man born Stevland Hardaway Judkins put it on his classic album Songs In The Key Of Life - there was certainly no shortage of it last night. Wonder gave love, dedicating the whole show to the Four Tops singer Levi Stubbs, who died this week, before a jubilant rendition of the soul band's classic I Can't Help Myself. (It ended with Wonder crying visible tears.) And boy, did he receive love. Before his daughter, Aisha Morris, had even led him all the way to his piano and banks of keyboards, the sold-out arena screamed with adulation. Wonder at first just ambled towards the centre of the stage, beat-boxing to himself. Then he pulled out a harmonica, jammed along with his band to a Miles Davis jazz classic and pretty much earned every last scream. His band was deliciously tight - a crack 14-piece unit including multiple horns, guitars and percussionists - and their leader almost shone with the star power and charisma you expected. You can still see that he really feels the music, loves hearing it and can't get enough of playing it. Sure, but it's hard to think he could put a foot wrong. Really, he could have just stood at the stage for two hours humming to himself and this would have been a triumph. As it was, he played some mighty fine soul and funk as well as the occasional flourish of jazz and reggae groove. By the end of the show we'd seen it all. A suspiciously good singer, "plucked out of the audience", duetting with his idol; a barrage of hits, good and not so good (but still irresistible), often jazzed up. And the presentation of a lifetime achievement award for sales in excess of 1 million in Australia before a roof-raising Superstition. It was all about the love.

Löm

Ah ch'i vëghi pa le ci bel bröm
cambié è le tomp

Ah ch'i sonti 'ndô la liberté
cambié è le monn

Cô che i crëii è döt ma bröm,
canche i prëii è döt gran löm

Sc' al è vëi è döt ma bröm
Cô che i crëii è döt gran löm

Starting out on vocals, the Ladin* songwriter Jean-Daniel Granruaz, aka Jeanruaz, picked up his first guitar relatively late, at age 17. After his initial exposure to jazz and classical music in South Tyrol, he left to attend the Taller de Músics in Barcelona. He then left Europe in 2002 to pursue jazz studies in Argentina, where he also had more exposure to the Latin American experience and a combination of pop and ethnic sounds. This inspired his own mixing of styles and an eclectic approach to music. Jean was subsequently accepted by the jazz institute at the Accademia del Suonno in Milan, where he studied guitar under Bebo Ferra — and met his creative partners and bandmates Loris and Francesco Dallago.

Jean writes songs in Ladin, English and Italian, or a combination (A Safe Place). Sounds from the Ladin language, often considered Portuguese-like, are used (Perde) to create little muddles with the taste of samba or bossa nova.

* 	An old alpine Rhaeto-Romance language spoken by about 60,000 people, mainly in the Dolomite Mountains of Northern Italy.
