Malong's Round-Up #4

Le producteur Schvédranne s’associe de nouveau au poète iconique de la beat generation Jack Hirschman sur le titre Virginia Tech. Un pamphlet s’attaquant à la frénésie des armes à feu aux USA sur une musique électronique croisant poésie et messages de luttes politiques.

Après At The Lips Of A Kiss, Arme de Destruction Massive et Path, Schvédranne dévoile Virginia Tech. Un titre au nom dramatique de l’Universite qui a subi sur son campus une des fusillades les plus meurtrières de l’histoire des Etats-Unis. Sur cette thématique, Schvédranne va livrer une techno sombre et progressive imaginant le parcours de l’auteur de cet événement tragique. Jack Hirschman intervient et délivre son texte émanant de sa voix rauque et atypique. « The loner is me, the one who stopped listening, the one with the hidden fuse, with the fist of blind clench, with the hole in his heart, with the cool guns. »

Guidé par cette ambiance mystérieuse agrémentée de basses, de triturages de textures sonores et de samples de claviers issus des lives band de Schvédranne, on se retrouve capturé par cet univers électronique surprenant.

Le poète dresse alors une métaphore entre cette fusillade et les exactions orchestrées par l’armée américaine à Bagdad lors des guerres du Golfe. “and now you know what a market in old Bagdad feels like with its victims as in the wrong place at the wrong time.” Au mauvais endroit, au mauvais moment, c’est sur cette thématique que Schvédranne et Jack Hirschman vont se questionner sur ce à quoi peut ressembler une place de marché à Bagdad.

La réponse se trouve dans cette musique techno-spoken word hypnotique où les références à wikileaks, les notions historiques et l’émotion des mots, se marient à la puissance des sons, eux mêmes inspirés des scènes underground anti-militaristes et des raves berlinoises. Virginia Tech dresse le bilan lourd et meurtrier de la politique d’armes à feu et des guerres initiée par les Etats-Unis. Face à ça, le binôme invite à l’émancipation de l’humain en se rassemblant sur le dancefloor afin de se libérer de ces multiples oppressions.

Asymetrics Mixtape #12: Mr Riddler - Le Chaudron Magique

Brain Damage meets Big Youth - "2020 I Pray Thee"
From the album 'Beyond the Blue'

- - -
Opening this Big Youth album – the first since more than a decade – here is one of his most powerful hymns, « I Pray Thee », unexpectedly revisited by Brain Damage. A padded atmosphere, with languorous jazz melodies, emphasizes the thundering incantations of the legendary Jamaican master. This being a perfect introduction to the unprecedented musical breakout concocted by both artists that, while in the middle of the pandemic, refuse to slump and know no bounds to the vitality of their art.

... a story in History

… or how to condense in a sound bite, the incredible and terrible journey, experienced by Martin Nathan and his longtime friend Samuel Clayton Jr, both gone to Jamaica in March 2020, for a collaboration with the legendary Big Youth. The context of a first and unprecedented world lockdown has only left them very little time to record the takes with the famous DJ, before they both contracted the virus. Martin Nathan was lucky enough to be able to get back to France, although had to remain confined and to take care of himself alone in his studio during five weeks upon his return. Samuel Clayton Jr, however, did not come back, struck down by the disease in Kingston.

The iron determination of the producer, supported by his label Jarring Effects and the Jamaican producer Stephen Stewart, did nonetheless bring the project to completion.

For his part, one thing is certain, Big Youth is in great shape! He brilliantly signs his return with that album, made up almost exclusively of new pieces, the first in many years! In the very words of the numerous prominent musicians and singers who witnessed the takes at Anchor studios in Kingston, he has lost none of his verve: « …you still get it, man! ». Sparkling and inexhaustible, distilling an amazing variety of vocal styles, that he created himself, he recalls at once “the old days”, the golden age of Jamaican reggae in the 1960 & 70’s, performs his version somewhat conspiracist, of the sanitary crisis, evokes his faith and tells about love … while perfectly merging into each universe offered by Brain Damage.

As if we are delighted to hear the elder’s shape and inventiveness, Martin Nathan is definitely not outdone and overhauls his style once again for the occasion. Always more musical, his compositions integrate diverse influences, hitherto untapped by him, like jazz, blues, ska, rock-steady … enhanced by the wonderful and smooth horn arrangements signed by Franck Boyron and his sidekicks, Baptiste Sarat and Fred Roudet. The whole, drawing on a production that left nothing to chance, surely is a new cornerstone of Brain Damage rich discography that keeps us wondering how far it will take us anew.

Samuel Clayton Jr, however, will be deeply missed. If one can hear him regularly and clearly as samples, throughout what will remain the last album he worked on, it is above all his mindset that Martin Nathan
strove to respect with that new musical and human adventure.

The emotion is audible, tangible.
