L’été, sous un ciel mitigé, tantôt étincelant, la minute suivante nuageux et pluvieux… On rêve de plage, de ciel bleu, de chaleur mais rien n’y fait, ça ne vient pas. J’ai un moyen de m’évader sur les plages d’Ailleurs, la musique. Quand le temps n’y est pas, comme ces dernières semaines et bien je mets de la musique, nouveauté, ancienneté, remix, inédit, peu m’importe tant que je voyage.

Déjà, il y a eu le nouveau Maxwell qui contrairement à D’angelo a décidé de ne pas nous faire attendre une année de plus, bien que j’aurai préféré le retour de D’. 4ème album studio, Black summer’s Night est sorti en Juillet, avec comme premier single Pretty Wings accompagné d’un clip esthétiquement réussi. Maxwell parle de relation comme toujours, joliment dit, toujours aussi sensible; partir avant de finir par se détruire l’un l’autre, partir même si le cœur n’y est pas. Alors oui, l’album n’est pas parfait, oui il y a des morceaux à exclure (Fistful of Tears), des titres moyens (Love You) mais Maxwell reste lui même, la sensualité comme toujours sans jamais nous inonder de détail sexy, toujours dans la subtilité, juste pour nous mettre en ambiance. Ce Maxwell est celui que j’aime et celui qui nous est revenu. Alors merci à vous, Maxwell de ne pas être tombé dans ce soucis de Charts US (bien qu’il me semble que ce soit une réussite commerciale), ce soucis de vendre, merci d’être revenu, fidèle à vous même.
“I wish It would rain“, n’est évidement pas mon souhait cependant cette chanson tourne en boucle. Mayer Hawthorne, jeune artiste originaire du Michigan qui a baigné dans la soul depuis petit. Il chante, il joue tout les instruments de ses chansons et nous refait vivre les plus belles années de la soul, c’est pourquoi Peanut Butter Wolf l’a signé après avoir écouté seulement deux morceaux.
Et comme Old is the new school (Mayer Hawthorne, Raphael Saadiq…), pourquoi ne pas sortir les vrais vieux vynils ? Merry Clayton. Vous connaissez sûrement son travail avec Ray Charles (Raelettes) ou encore avec les Rolling Stones. Elle a aussi fait beaucoup en solo, beaucoup de reprises comme celle-ci “A song for You”. Vous connaissez sûrement la version de Donny Hathaway (la chanson ne lui était pas destiné apriori), je vous conseille vivement cette version. J’aime beaucoup la voix de Merry Clayton, grave et poignante. Parfois j’aime juste réécouter des sons très soul, émotionnel comme on en refait plus, Mayer, Raphael et tout les autres font du Old New Clean Soul, j’aimais la saleté, le grain qui sortait de ces sons, la manière dont les artistes ressentaient les paroles et vous les cracher à la gueule.
Fat Freddy’s Drop est un groupe que je connais très mal mais je suis tombée amoureuse du morceau “boondigga”, très smooth avec en même temps cette énergie pop touchante. La voix de Joe Dukie (Dallas Tamaira, le chanteur du groupe) se pose délicatement accompagnée de trompettes. Un régal donc je me réjouis, je cours donc écouter l’album et découvrir ce groupe dont je ne connaissais que le nom.
Ah! L’été sans le soleil, je peux supporter mais pas sans musique… Bonne écoute.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass’ favor.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.
