The Jimi Tenor was heard
a quarter of a century, a small Superstar. “Take me Baby” was the Song that made him the Surprise of all famous and today is memorable: the Charming and rudimentary techno, with Rudimentary voice and with extremely rudimentary means produced.
But the heart of the strange Lord from the Finnish Lahti, flew once with disgrace from the local jazz school, because he was tired, to offer the Jazz traditionalism, the forehead, struck just on the edge for the Western dance floor music. So, he founded soon with the Afrobeat co-founder Tony Allen, a Band that oscillated wunderlich between Finnish quirk and African Groove. After excursions in Dub and psychedelic Big-Band Jazz, he remained in Africa hang. With the two Ghanaian gospel singers Lizzy Amaliyenga and Florence Adooni he has a very ohrwurmigen African Hit, recorded: “to Vocalize My Luv” is the precursor to an upcoming Album, which we look forward as the lock dogs.

is On the Cape Verde Islands is currently quite heavily on the new Album of Mayra Andrade discussed. Long it took for the Islands, which lie in the nautical, as in the cultural field of tension between Portugal, Africa and Brazil, have recovered from the death of their musical Übermutter Cesaria Evora. Mayra is Andrade as the most hopeful and the most successful descendant of the music-crazy country, even if the 34-Year-old lived only briefly on the Cape Verde Islands and in Paris today. Stone of contention is that they are wired on their new Album, the traditional Cape Verdean Funanas, Mornas and Coladeiras with more or less modern electronics.
That sounds mostly very fine, in the worst moments of the album, it is similar to but also the Doing of the relevant organ-holder in the Cape Verde All-Inclusive Hotels. The common thing: The otherwise rather traditional Cesaria Evora has set with their “Club Sodade”-remixes 2003 in the discipline of electronic Cape Verde music milestones. The seven years ago the deceased Diva has thrown a long shadow.
The misunderstanding
Of the former Disco Queens Chaka Khan to Shine. Her misfortune was that she was trimmed after the Wane of the Disco boom in the mid-eighties in the art world hostile environment of the Major Labels to broadband Schmusepop singer. The hired producers outbid the only way in digital synthesizer Kitsch and Pop clichés. And at some point, the career of Mrs Khan was not saved. You seemed as an unfortunate victim of the boom-Pop history, the life between dusty Grammys and performances in 80s-memorial shows threatened. So much for the misunderstanding.
And now this. Chaka Khan has smiles for the first Time in their career, a capable producer, and comes with a Comeback Album around the corner, so gratifying, that you amazement from the ears. A part has to blame a man by the name Switch – a British Studio man who produced the first two albums from M. I. A., Major Lazor co-founded (and left before it was embarrassing), and with the wonderful Santigold in the Studio. Now he has created with Chaka Khan, a production-technical masterpiece. As the Basis of the seven Songs, the old Disco fantasies of the prominent singer, which are bent by the Switch in the direction of the Dub, changes in the direction of Vintage Soul and always in the direction of mind-boggling avant-garde Studio wizardry. What a blessing this encounter with a woman in the best of shape to reuse.
What is bloom
Recently, the “daily show visited” the group Patent Ochsner in the Studio. We have pricked up the ears and listen to what the singer Büne Huber was in the Vocal booth. It was brass, a love song with the salvation army and the stage is singing from a gate that opens, while another closes. It’s about love, pain and heart. And it all sounds very, very familiar. A Release only date is visible anywhere. Perhaps also the home of singers to follow now the Super-Trend of surprise albums without further notice.
The piece
There is a new voice in the field of folk music. It belongs to the Nairobi-born, today, in Minneapolis, living J. S. Ondara, and she sounds clear as a bell that the mere Listening is not clear is whether there really is a male being behind the microphone. Has begun the career of the 26-Year-old with a lost bet. The Kenyan Teenager was convinced that “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” is from his favourite band Guns N’ Roses. When he was undeceived, he began to be engrossed with the Singer/Songwriter in America and followed soon by the dream, in this very America, a separate plate. Et voilà!
The soundtrack
What new releases have us twisted up in the head? For example, a new Chanson-Möderballade of Keren Ann, occult Cumbia of Xixa, the South African electric music from Berner Dejot and a terribly beautiful Orchestral-Manoeuvres-In-The-Dark-Cover by Nouvelle Vague.
