Songs For Moonlight Swim (dlx)
) | Label: FREMEAUX & ASSOCIES Catalog: FA8543 Format: COMPACT DISC Zero, Karl; Malik, Abd al; d'Errata, Daisy; Rafael y su Conjunto Atractivo; Dombasle, ArielleThe universe of Karl Zero blends world music (Latin, mambo, Brazilian) and jazz (big band orchestration), deliciously vintage, mixing humor, poetry, and tenderness. He picked up a “Brazilian version of” water from the 1940s to the 1950s, new wave tunes, electro rap, and diverted timeless titles to make these arrangements. He sings in French, Russian, or Arabic, and has surrounded himself with Abd Al Malik, Arielle Dombasle or Daisy d’Errata, who find themselves in roles counter to Zero. Karl Zero united the fine flower of Parisian jazz with the legendary Ferber studio and entrusted the sumptuous arrangements and orchestra direction of the big band to Raphael Lemonnier. Making this even more special is the acoustic environment in which these songs were recorded. A truly remarkable juxtaposition of the old and the new.  Price: $42.98 |
