Yamamoto Seiichi - Nu Frequency - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Yamamoto Seiichi - Baptism [COMPACT DISCS] date 04/27/2004

From the banks of the Marne to the Mississippi Delta, the fiery and provocative music concocted by Dominique Cravic and Didier Roussin (working under the band name Les Primitives du Futur) was inspired by the years when pop music in Paris - the music played in dancehall's called Bals-Musettes - was intermixed with the music of many cultures. The sound is traditional, with tints of jazz and beguine, rocked by gypsy and Italian accents. This combines Cocktail d'Amour, the group's first album (which established the band's international reputation) with Blues story & the New Blue 4, which features exclusive tracks taken from Dominique Cravic's personal tapes.

Brigitte Calls Me Baby emerged in 2023 scoring a Top 10 radio hit (InchImpressively AverageInch) and a Inchbreakout artistInch nod from NME, along with a sold-out headlining tour across the US. With their debut LP, The Future Is Our Way Out, the Chicago-based 5 piece share a body of work that spans genres and eras, merging the lavish romanticism of mid-century pop with the frenetic energy and spiky intensity of early-millennium indie, all centered on singer Wes Leavins' hypnotically crooning vocal work.
