Philippe Manceau, guitarist and composer tells us about the NOVELO experience:

"I was listening to Novelo yesterday with a certain amazement (I didn't even remember this cover!)... It was such a long time ago, and so many things happened in my life since then, and it's musically so different from what i do today. You know, my principle concern when i make music is to give perpetual excitement to the listener, in the sense that he will never get bored. But in this "tandava" serie of tracks , there are a many repeating moments and drawn-out passages. Although, there are some intresting things too, sure..."

"tandava 2": (the keyboard's getting hot at 3:10!)

Op.Dop: Philippe, could you make a quick historic of your musical experience before Novelo?

Ph.M: I have learned to play violin at the age of 6 during two or three years. And that are the only musical courses i took... I'm a self-taught. In 1964 (i was 10 years old), i go to La Réunion (french island located in the Indian Ocean) to live there, and decided to learn the guitar. In 1966 i create my first band with a guy called Alain Legros, i compose all the music for this collaboration. Back in France (at La Rochelle) in 1969, I'm 15, and here I don't know nobody in the music game, my friends weren't musicians at all... Despite everything, i continue to play guitar and impose myself to make a new song everyday! I had the feeling that one day, i will have to produce a lot... In 1975, I live in Tours, I start to be a "professional" musician, playing with local bands, and in the meantime I intergrate a band (which was only playing cover songs at that time), and this band is NOVELO.

Op.Dop: Which bands were you listen to, musicians that inspired you all along the way?

Ph.M: At La Réunion, i was sensible to the specific island rhythms, it was also the years in which I discovered The Beatles , and that was a true revelation! Then came Hendrix, King Crimson, Led Zep, Todd Rundgren, Bowie and etc.... In France I was listening to Mahavishnu Orchestra, Weather Report, Hancock, S. Wonder... and the Funk from that mid 70's period. But i can say that the main inspiration to me was/is The Beatles.

Op.Dop: Has Novelo released a full album?

Ph.M: No... Actually, the band didn't last for a while.

Op.Dop: Do you know if the other Novelo's musicians recorded some Jazz-Rock or Prog-Rock materials except Novelo

Ph.M: I don't think so.

Op.Dop: Tracks from this Novelo's record (Note that it's a split double lp, 4 bands: 1 side per band) are: Tandava1, Tandava2, Tandava4, Tandava5. So let us know, is there a Tandava3 somewhere!!?

Ph.M: Well... I don't remember of Tandava3. It was probably not good enough to record it...

Op.Dop: I've learned that you are now composing jingles and soundtracks for TV and movies... So, have you recorded some libraries or soundtracks records in late 70's or 80's?

Ph.M: Composing scores for images has always been my wish, but the music industry doors weren't easy to locate and quite hard to open... The opportunie finally came by chance in 1995. See, it's all about being here at right place, at the right moment: i did somebody a favour (some guitar studio sessions) and from there the guy asked me to make music for a documentry movie. Since that moment, I have made more than 40 scores for TV and movies... Little by little, it allowed me to built my own "pro" studio with all the fine equipment necessary to produce music. I now use this studio to record myself, musicians and make arrangements for TV music scores, jingles...

Philippe Manceau has just put on line the 4 tracks of NOVELO (which actually comes from my copy, yeah he doesn't even have his own record...)

http://web.me.com/philippemanceau/Novelo/Novelo.html

Also check his website to see what he is doing nowadays: http://www.philippemanceau.com/

Thank you Philippe ;)

Prog Rock to a Disco Beat...

This week i was searching for prog rock bands that blended disco beats into their compositions... Of course it was such a common practice in the late 70's when lots of groups were trying to capture a younger audience... So, this selection is turning around that style: "discoprog", disco-rock or cosmic-prog that could sometimes be labeled as DISCO.

PEPMUSIC - The spicephonie experience!

Cool french advertising record released to promote some spices and herbs products (for food of course). This lp is finally a sort of compilation of tracks from the Editions Montparnasse 2000 catalogue, we find Janko Nilovic "Hommage à Pelé" and "One together" from Chorus (MP34), Gérard Lévecque and Claude Romat, Daniel J. White.. among others. The b side starts with a long serie of funny advertisments - the guy speaks with a fake accent, he's supposed to imitate a chief from south of France (Côte d'azur)... but it sounds phoney! -over a catchy bossa instrumental played by Janko Nilovic.

But the main reason why we're posting this record, is the presence of two rare and best cuts from AFRICADELIC'S THE NAME N°1 by Gérard Lévecque and Claude Romat (MP54), check "la danse des éléphants"and "danse bakaloo". How does it taste?!

G. Lévecque & C. Romat " La danse des éléphants"

NORMANDIE REPRESENTZ !!!

Generally we're not very chauvinistic, but that recent discovery is driving us to bring Normandie to light. HOT NORMANDIE (for Haute-Normandie, pun!) is a double LP from '86 which includes twenty four Jazz bands from ROUEN, LE HAVRE, DIEPPE, EVREUX... The first record is swing, be-bop, hard-bop oriented, and the second is more fusiony and pretty much more interesting indeed. We have selected 1 track from the first rec, and 5 others from the second.

LITHA JAZZ QUARTET "bolivia"
A nice version of the Cedar Walton classic, this is the track that opens the first lp. Listen!

Joël DROUIN QUINTET "basse partout"
Let's get funky now, "basse partout" is from their own composition, the quintet was formed in 1981, they have recorded 3 albums.

EVREUX EXPERYENZ "run for cover"
Another funky gem here, with a cover version of a Marcus Miller's track. This big band is from Evreux and liked to play funk and jazz-rock... Listen!

ASSOUE "julia"
This is my favorite i think... "Julia" is a cool deep track with some afro-latin influences. If you're down with the Azymuth sound, then you're gonna like it and whistle the theme all day!

MUSICAZZAC "comme une baleine véloce"
I like the title of the song: "as swift as a whale"! Anyway, a brillant track, the longest of this comp (7min). Should we say again "zeuhl"... or Jazz-Rock... Just listen to it...

MAGASINIERS DU COURANT D'AIR SALE
"ugly duck' song"
I would be incapable to translate the name of the band properly sorry! This cut is really beautiful to me. Across the Soft Machine atmospheres and something more pastoral... It's not from Canterbury, it's from LE HAVRE (76)!!!

Special 90's Trip Hop / Jungle!!!

We're leaving the 70's and 80's for tonight, we have decided to dive in the mid 90's, in the golden age of Trip Hop and Jungle sounds! Sometimes it's good to change our mind, and these records were sleeping in our crates since a too long time... Although, 90minutes is a bit short to rediscover this era, so i think we'll have to repeat this kind of operation in the future! The first 45minutes of this show is Trip Hop, Abstract, Acid Jazz... and for the second part we wanted to play a mix by JMJ from the highly respected MOVING SHADOW label, a serious mix of classic Jungle masterpieces... 1996! Hope you'll apreciate this cool down session!

-JAZZ DANCE SCHOOL ACADEMY!-

JAZZ TRACK

by Dennis Wiley
This week focus on 2 French records made for jazz lessons. Dennis Wiley used to be the composer and pianist for THE PETERS SISTERS in the 50's and 60's. When the band has splited, he recorded and composed numerous scores for dance shows and ballets all over the world. JAZZ TRACK lp is played by a trio, piano,bass and drums. Maybe you should start by listening to "Things are gonna change"(the chorus reminds me Cortex's"Mary & Jeff" atmosphere), the intense"Barrio Chino" and "Karaté walk", which are, to me, the best tracks... And then if you're seduced,you will like the rest! I've upload 6 cuts from the lp...

D'ya like it?! - Download

LA CLASSE DE JAZZ

This one is "obscureless", but is worth'while to figures here on this choice...

TURBO MUSIC
by Angel "Pocho" Gatti

Angel Gatti (pianist) was a fan of Formula 1 races and particularly of the French superstars like Jabouille, Prost and Arnoux. It's them who inspired "Pocho" to release this double lp in 1981. Some great jazz funk all over the first record, with rhodes, organs, synth, wah wah, horns, bass & drums and... some engines roars! i like this kind of cover art (by chance this is a gatefold sleeve!), photos of R5, R18 turbo, R30 turbodiesel and R5 Alpine turbo. Listen to the grooviest tunes of TURBO MUSIC, we offer you 6 cuts of the 1st rec.

DICK HYMAN - The Minotaur

"My objective is to humanize electronic music" said Dick Hyman! Focus on the Moog maestro, and particularly on the titled track "the minotaur" from The electric eclectics of Dick Hyman LP. Four elements are involved in this remarkably rhythmic and melodic improvisation. First is the rythm unit which is blended of two: a bossa nova and a waltz. To this is added a drone effect, like a tambourine, played with the synthesizer. Then the repetitive bass line is laid in (and will resound in your head for hours!). Finally, the synth melody line. The style is a mixture of Indian and Greek musical influences. The germ of the idea for the solo melody came from a Greek record in Dick's collection! We come back next week with our radio program...

FUNKEY MAKOSSA
by Egide Sadey
We will regularly post some records apart from our radio shows, some we like or some we think that are totally underrated. And let start with this one, a quite unknown "12 from EGIDE SADEY including three tracks "high emotion", "ghislaine" and the irresistible dancefloor gem "funkey makossa". Egide made four 7"inches when he lived in Cameroun, the first one "nassibi", was an appearance with a pretty famous band in his country, called the Black Tigers. He finally came to live in France in the early 80's, where he confronted his african influences to occidental jazz and funk... He recorded three 12" in France which encouter an average success! So he decided to get on his own, and with the help from his family, (his father was an experienced musician) and Patrick Mani (his producer), he finally brought out "funkey makossa"... STILL FRESH!!!
