Rockers


Not so long ago someone posted a video about a baby moaning in the back of a car , nothing was to be done , neither mum or dad could make those tears go away ! In a desperate attempt to calm down the child , parents decided to swich the radio on , hoping it somehow might improve the situation but infortunatly didn't ! It was only untill the radio played an old bob marley reggea tune that suddently out of nowhere the kido was no longer crying but bouncing is head in rythme with music
, smilling and loughting out loud !!!
It stuned me how reggea music always bind us all together by awaken a feeling of simplicity , love and happines deep in are tired hearts !
"Rockers" is actualy much moore of a documentary than a simple movie as it was auto produced by famous Jamaïcan label "Channel one"(Jacob Miller,Burning Spear, Gregory Isaacs...) and all artist are parts in it .1H30 of pure classic trench town rock music , inglish rasta slang with memorable retort and a real check out of what really was the life style like back there !

When Salvador Dali meets Walt Disney ! "Destino"



This is a such a masterpiece of art ! I discovered it thruw a french director who was actualy breifing me on what the music should be like for is next video , when further in the discussion he comes to speak about this video . So as we where on the set where is video was being to shot later that day , he showed me what he had in mind...
This video has actually a long and beautifull story . I'll to make it quick tho.
"Destino" was originally storyboarded beetwen 1945 and 1946 by John Hench and Salvador Dali , however financial concerns caused Disney to cease production (World War II)...
And it's only about 50 years latter that Walt Disney's nephew "Roy Edward" , decided to bring the project back to life. "Disney Studios France", the company's small Parisian production department, was brought on board to complete the project.
Enjoi.....

Pierre Henry's a domicile !


Le compositeur invite le public chez lui, à Paris, pour 24 concerts.

Accoudé à la grande table de sa cuisine, Pierre Henry peaufine les derniers réglages sonores. C'est l'après-midi. La rue de Toul est silencieuse et la bâtisse, remplie de musique. Depuis 1971, le compositeur, âgé de 82 ans, visage rond et épaisse barbe blanche, habite, dans le XIIe arrondissement de Paris, une étrange maison de poupée. «C'est ici que j'ai construit mon univers», dit à voix basse celui qui, avec Pierre Schaeffer, au tournant des années 1950, fut le père-fondateur de la musique concrète.

Elles résonnent, les cloches de Psy ché Rock, morceau tiré de la Messe pour le temps présent commandée par Maurice Béjart en 1967. Parmi les 120 grands opus que Pierre Henry a composés, quinze ont servi de musique pour les ballets du chorégraphe. Ses compositions sont des patchworks raisonnés et poétiques. Sans instrument, ni partition ou interprète, la musique concrète est fondée sur l'organisation, le classement, la transformation volontaire et l'«accouplement des sons» préexistants.

Allez c cadeau !

The Chemical Brothers & Michel Gondry

The Chemical Brothers just released a seventh studio album "further" in which it seems they've decided to produce a clip for each track.The production is once moore draw drooping , the mastery of analogique keyboards could hardly be questioned.
The "Another world" video was produced by Adam Smith & Marcus Lyall !


But i must admit i'm still very nostalgic of Michel Gondry's colaboration for Air France's Ad "Asleep from day".
