In Those Days is a dark-fantasy jazz/blues concept album built on the book of Judges—half film score, half rock opera, all one continuous world.

Obligé scores a crownless Canaan with smoky horns, upright bass, haunted guitars, and stormy drums: temple nightclubs for Baal, crooked odd-meter stealth for the left-handed assassin, noir prophecy under the palm tree, iron chariots rolling like war machines, midnight tension in Jael’s tent, Gideon shaking in a winepress, a daughter caught in the teeth of a vow, and a man who looks ordinary but tears down gates and pillars by a strength that makes no sense.

Some tracks play like pure score, others like songs sung from inside the story, but the same themes keep resurfacing—motifs slipping between sax lines and vocals, big-band blasts giving way to quiet, wounded prayers. This is Judges as a jazz-shadowed myth: no king, too many gods, and a handful of fragile people trying to stand up in the ruin.

Under the Palm

Kicking off the first official week of summer with an all-new edition of Balance!

BALANCE - Show #554 (Hosted by Spacewalker)

Hi everybody, welcome to the 25th edition of My Favorite Things, in this Jazz world I love. I’m really happy to have as guest one of the Parisian DJ’s who has had one of the best vinyl Jazz collection I’ve ever seen: DJ Yellow. I met him at Panorama Records, the Shop where I’m currently working, and I can tell you this guy knows his music!

Before becoming one of the biggest name of the French touch movement with his label Yellow Productions which included artists like Dimitri From Paris, Joe Claussel, Salome de Bahia and of Course Bob Sinclar, DJ Yellow was during the 80’s a real old school Hip Hop DJ’s who has played at The Palace, les Bains douches and the legendary ‘Chez Roger Boite Funk’ Party at The Globo in Paris.

After a decade of fruitful cooperations and dedication to helping other people’s careers, DJ Yellow finally decided to begin Composite Records in 2009, as an outlet for his own sounds, and that of his close friends, including King Britt, Dubfire, San Soda and more. As a producter, DJ Yellow is behind many massive club hits like “No One Gets Left Behind” on Compost Records. As a true passionate musical lover, Alain Ho, continues to dig records ton complete his beautiful collection.

For My Favorite Things he did mix to trace a musical path from 60’s to nowadays. As usual I have selected the best of my last digging tracks included the brand new El Michels Affair, Jimi Tenor, Greg Foat and a new fantastic fusion jazz project called The Sultan’s Swing feat Chip Wickham.

Enjoy.

JazzDee #9

Hi Everybody, it’s good to see you there for a new My Favorite Things with a very special guest, one of my favorite Contemporary Jazz musicians, Nat Birchall.

I opened the show with a great Lebanese track compiled by Habibi Funk for a tribute to Beyruth, called “Villes invisibles”. Then the first part of this mix contains tunes recently appears with artists we know very well here like Tall Black Guy, Idris Ackamoor, Kamaal Williams and Carlos Garnett for his great come back.

For his hour of favorite tracks, Nat Birchall put together a lovely selection including Reggae cuts (Tommy McCook, Augustus Pablo & King Tubby) and spiritual Jazz tracks (John Coltrane, Sun Ra, Byard Lancaster) to finish with a taste of his brand new LP.

The last part of my mix starts with the last project of Sir Paul Murphy “Take Vibe E.P.”, a great future jazz dance classic, and some uptempo fusion and broken beat nuggets like Deborah Jordan remixed by Kaidi Tatham, Mausiki Scales, Setwun and Jerk.

Enjoy!
