Découvrez Brittain Ashford !
I don't know exactly how i'll fill pages, you'll see !! ;) I'm gonna use french or english, perhaps both. I may probably mainly speak about music, share my feelings about some concerts, securities markets and stock markets. Perhaps also about cinema, art, life, philosophy so and forth...dunno.
Deepest root somehow of this whole stuff: U2. More than 10 years after i've been to one of their gigs during Zooropa tour, I saw them in 2005 at the Stade de France.
Little by little, i've then listened to more and more music - even if I already used to listen music very often before - , allowing me to discover new bands and singers and finally i've landed here :) Here where i've discovered new music and endearing artists.
I benefits from this occasion to thank these artists, who have given and will give to me such great moments through their tunes and/or gigs and/or by rubbing shoulders with them. Music will never be a minor art till it generate a PIN number to change of scene, emotions, beauty
I'll like the things which, the people who, i can be sensitive to. That's probably why, musically speaking, i've more looked towards folk/soul/jazz than pop-rock last months. What i am seeking in a tune: catchy melody, singer/chanteuse with a recognizable tone of vocals, emotion, lyrics telling me a story, not overproduced tune, at last a good and sincere flow/swing involving me in the tune.
A first glance at my musical universe with 2 live videos:
Regina Spektor - One More Time with Feeling
Regina Spektor is from New-York, somehow offbeat and quirky but full with talent !! Here is a live performance of an unreleased (so far) tune. If you don't feel special emotions and never get goosebumps while listening to her, i'm seriously wondering what has gone wrong with you ? :)
To realize the full potential of this song and of her talent of performer, you can go there (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQItEHHAPiA : sound only): same song.
The render of the acoustic - for the whole gig - notwithstanding the background noise, is perhaps my preferred one among all her captured shows, in so far as it reveals how her voice expands through the space of this venue, a theatre: it's striking, even you won't really be able to notice it on this song.
She's had furthermore a special stance in her interpretation during the whole show. It gives a unique touch to these songs and makes it one of my preferred live recordings of her gigs.
Regina Spektor - The Wallet
Another unreleased tune captured during the Australian Tour last summer. Currently on Tour in US again.
Louis - Club Dancing
Club Dancing - Live Theatre de Poche de Béthune (oct 2006)

Extract from Louis ' first record, "D'apparence en apparence". This song is a special release for the tour, hope you'll enjoy its musical arrangements as much as me !!! I highly recommand you to discover this french singer, who can sometimes remind you the famous Serge Gainsbourg. I've made a report of his last venue in Nantes in my blog. On Tour(concerts & showcases) in France.
Last but not least,
Anja Garbarek - Stay Tuned
Anja Garbarek is (also...) quirky, from jazzy and trip-hop influence and is a "must hear" too. Her last record (4th one) was released during autumn 2k05. This video is related to her precent record.I'd personnally enjoy to show you and let your hear you "Stay tuned" ( honey,softness, poetry. In a word ... a dream), from "Smiling and Waving", but it's postponed cause unvailable atm.
