Chris Dave gave an amazing show yesterday in Paris at the club New Morning with Pino Palladino, Kebbi Williams and Tim Stewart. All amazing musicians. The show was so great with a bunch of covers between hip hop jazz and free jazz. Here for you two songs I recorded (with the iphone so don’t expect too great) : Fall in Love (Jay dee) and The Root (d’angelo).

Enjoy.

I’ve received the Timeless (Mochilla) dvds some weeks ago thanks to Plug Research (LA label I’m really following, good artists are signed on). I was so glad when I opened my mailbox. I’ve watched the dvds not so long ago with some friends (much better when sharing the moment with friends). It’s just a pure moment of happiness. The music is really good, the live arrangements are awesome. I was more into the Suite For Ma Dukes dvd as I know the music better but I really enjoyed Mulatu and Verocai that are two very important artists.
It’s really a dvds box I advice, not because the label sent me the dvds and I’m trying to be nice but because I really believe it but I have a little critic, I was excepting a better visual, more artistic. However it’s some of the best live music put on DVD i’ve seen for a while.

J’ai reçu les dvds Timeless (Mochilla) il y a quelques semaines grâce au label Plug Research (Label Californien que je suis de très près, label montant). J’étais vraiment très heureuse en ouvrant ma boîte aux lettres. J’ai regardé les dvds il y a quelques jours seulement avec quelques amis (beaucoup mieux lorsqu’on partage ce moment avec des amis). C’est juste un pure moment de joie. La musique est excellente, les arrangements live très bon. J’étais plus apte à apprécier Suite For Ma Dukes comme je connais beaucoup mieux les productions de Jay Dee que celle de Mulatu et Verocai, cependant ces deux derniers étaient excellent, deux grands de la musique.
Pour conclure c’est vraiment une box que je conseille, non par parce que le Label m’a envoyé les dvds et que j’essaie d’être gentille mais bien parce que ce sont trois dvds musicalement énormes. Ma seule critique serait que je m’attendais à quelque chose de visuellement plus artistique.
Cependant, c’est bien les meilleurs dvds de musique live que j’ai vu depuis un moment.

I had to post the videos of this CRAZY show with J-Live, Akrobatik, Masta Ace & Edo G and Slum Village organised by HIP HOP RÉSISTANCE & LA RAPHINERIE @ La Bellevilloise. The best part was Masta Ace and Edo G, it was just GREAT, they killed it.
And they all ended up doing a freestyle, Masta Ace finished his like this “Fuck NY, I’m moving to Paris France“, a killer ! Unfortunally, I didn’t have any more battery to capture the freestyle.
Masta Ace actually wrote on his twitter that it was the best show of the tour + Akrobatik wrote that it was his best 009 show ! The energy of the people and artists wa ill!
Classic show. Enjoy the video by Marie Schockweiller + Pictures by Isidore Muledi

Masta Ace & Edo G.One of the best part of the show, it was so funny:

Je me devais de poster les vidéos de ce concert de folie avec J-Live, Akribatik, Masta Ace & Edo G et Slum Village organisé par HIP HOP RÉSISTANCE et LA RAPHINERIE à la Bellevilloise. Le meilleur moment a été le concert donné par Masta Ace & Edo G, vous pouvez voir ça d’après les vidéos. Un des autres grand moment a été le freestyle de fin avec tout les artistes, MAsta Ace encore une fois nous a mit une claque, finissant son freestyle ainsi “Fuck NY, I’m moving to Paris France“.
