On Friday on Incognito, it's all about the bassline. Today, Absolute B. takes you to Egypt for an arabian night with the Amulette Magique EP by Keadz.
Cairo, Egypt by night. A small breeze caresses the sand dunes and the air is just starting to cool down. The remnants of pyramids and other edifices stand out on the clear sky in an amzing contrast of shade and light. Impossible not to have in mind the local magical stories like Aladdin or The 1001 tales of the arabian night. This is precisely the atmosphere of Keadz's EP. It tells the story of a quest to find a lost amulet and it gives to hear this magical atmosphere.
The percussions can definitely remind us of the Orient, but more than that, this EP is a true amulet, something, rhythms and melodies, that you keep with you, in your head, because it's powerful. It speaks to the ear, to the mind and to the soul. With such an inspiration, the EP could only be coherent and consistent. There is a great variety in rhythms and dynamics for only 5 tracks. Or Jaune(Gold) is the perfect example for these variations that totally capture the listener’s attention. But really the entire EP is worth listening and listening again. Also, the choices of vocals are pure genius. They sampled very well-known song: The Rhythm of the Night; Breathe by Sean Paul ft. Blu Cantrell; yet they are hardly recognizable because so well-arranged. Only an evanescent sense of the original songs remains, and that’s how it’s genius.
If you’re a woman, you’re wearing a black one shoulder top in a black sheer maxi skirt, platform shoes. As accessories, you’re wearing a golden pair of cuffs and a golden collar necklace.
If you’re a guy, you’re wearing a linen white shirt on white shorts and leather men sandals. You’re also wearing a golden bracelet.
And don't forget to visit our musical sanctuary: Absolute Bassline.
