REVIEWS
—————————–

Staying with Green Cookie and indeed the Bardulians, these dudes recently dropped a killer set going by the name ‘here we go’ that had the label lushly gushing citing references as wide and far as Otis Redding, Gil Scott Heron and Sly and the Family Stone, all of which weren’t to varying degrees, lost on us. However, we suggest you fast forward to the parting cut ‘Atxabiribil Sunset’, an end of the evening slice of arresting lounge jazz acutely shimmered and seasoned in a sultry exotica trimming that’s teased with a sea faring lazy eyed lilt, quite exquisite by these ears. / The Sunday Experience (3 Jan 2019)

Groovy Baby !
Si vous êtes à la recherche d’un disque pour créer une ambiance à la Austin Powers alors ce mini album (7titres) du groupe de Bilbao saura vous régaler ! Entre musique pour Party, Bande Originale pour film d’espionnage sixties imaginaire, leur cocktail smooth à base de Jazz Funk Soul & Rhythm’n’Blues fait un malheur !
Orgue et saxophone, mais utilisés de façon purement élégante et légère, viennent driver les titres ici présent, qui bénéficient chacun d’une vraie personnalité.
Super-class !
Je ne suis pas le grand connaisseur de ce genre de disque ni le plus gros fan de disques totalement instrumentaux, mais je dois dire que celui-ci fait la distance idéale et que l’attention portée à chaque morceaux lui donne une pertinence et un intérêt qui ne faiblit jamais, alors que grandit l’envie de le réécouter ! / Voix De Garage Grenoble, France (10 Feb 2019)
