Orax - Forever

Si vous vous promenez souvent dans les sombres boites milanaise (gothique ou non), vous l’avez peut être rencontré, mais j’en doute. Orax est, comme vous l’avez deviné italien. Ca musique est/était parfaite pour la fin de votre soirée d’Halloween, légèrement lugubre et très rythmé, quand les gens ne sont plus que des zombies. 

Dans un esprit techno des années 90, on y retrouve des sons un peu crades des beats rapides et très binaires. Même si elles ne seront pas des tubes, Forever ou Believe les dernières chansons d’Orax défoulent.

If you often go out in dark club in Milan (gothic or not), you might have met him, but I don’t think. Orax, as you guessed is Italian. His music is/was perfect for the end of your Halloween party, gently gloomy and nicely paced, when people are like zombies. 

It may remind you techno music of 90s, with dirty hypnotic sounds and binary rhythms. Even if they will not be the next hits, Forever or Believe the last songs of Orax permit to let off steam.

Joakim - Forever Young

Joakim - Forever Young (Official Video) from TIGERSUSHI on Vimeo.

Du neuf pour l'éclectique Joakim Bouaziz, boss du label Tigersushi, avec l'annonce de la sortie de son nouveau LP Nothing Gold pour la rentrée de Septembre. Après l'electro socca "Heartbreak Samba", Joakim nous offre comme premier extrait de cet LP, un pur morceau estival: "Forever Young".

Exilé à New-York depuis peu, ce Français a le don pour nous pondre des petits hits souterrains. Des pops songs electro, progressant gracieusement entre italo-disco, psychédélisme et new wave, qui s'introduisent, comme ça, dans notre quotidien.

"Forever Young" est une belle dédicace à tout ceux qui ne s'imaginaient pas un jour en arriver là. Voici d'ailleurs ce qu'avait à dire Joakim à ce propos: "Forever Young is my song for all the 30-something-year-old people out there. I used to hate people between 30 and 40 when I was under 30. I thought they gave up one most of their beliefs and lived a dull and fake life. Love cowards pretending to still be cool, contemptuous grown-ups afraid of the young sharks. But now, I'm one of THEM. So I have to cope with that." - Joakim.

Oui.

Du "neuf avec du vieux", voilà tout simplement ce que nous propose Joakim. On attend donc la suite avec impatience...

Some news from the eclectic Joakim Bouaziz, boss of the Tigersushi label, when the release of his new LP Nothing Gold was announced for the beginning of September. After the electro socca "Heartbreak Samba", Joakim offers us, as a first extract, a pure summer song: "Forever Young".

Recently exiled in New-York, this French guy has the talent for creating little underground hits. Some electro pop songs, perfectly moving between italo-disco, psychedelia and new wave, which are introduced, like that, in our everyday life.

Actually, "Forever Young" is a beautiful dedication to all those who did not imagine to get there one day. Here's what Joakim had to say about it: "Forever Young is my song for all the 30-something-year-old people out there. I used to hate people between 30 and 40 when I was under 30. I thought they gave up one most of their beliefs and lived a dull and fake life. Love cowards pretending to still be cool, contemptuous grown-ups afraid of the young sharks. But now, I'm one of THEM. So I have to cope with that." - Joakim.

Yes.

"To revamp things", that is what Joakim is simply doing. Then, we're looking forward to the LP...
