Sounds Like: Tchao paï-paï released already two albums before Sense your Head. First formation was made of five people Emilie, Tony, Toupelou, Djé, Xav. This formation worked a lot before producing a few concerts. But it gave the roots from Tchao. Dubbbin like jamïcan style with more jazz impro and including samples and scratch. From this collaboration borned Dub Beat Actif the first album.... .To fit their musical idea the band started to add machines in theire sound and to look for a keyboard. They found Sam and the band enlarge to six members. (still six musicians on stage today...) As the band had just starts with Dub Beat Actif many concerts was comming soon. During the year that follow they played in many places of Normandy. But the sound was changing with the new groove of the machines and the keyboards. So back to work : finalise all new songs to record a CD! In year 2004 rose Resistance.
. .Six dub tracks, but the band still didn't have found what kind of style they play. Was it really Dub-jazz or electro-rock (because of the strong presence of the guitar). One word stayed : Dub! Because we are all influenced by jamaïcan's, english an french dub productions. And this sound is one we love!
But the band had to be rearranged : Emilie (sax) had to leave because of others occupations, not enough time to share with Tchao. Vianey came instead of her and gave a deep touch to the music adding others instruments and a coulored sound like with the melodica for example. Finaly all theese new things helped to create !
. .Then Tony (bass&machine) decided to leave too because he wanted to play only machines and no more bass and to have more time for his other band:R2jeux. Tchao played some comcerts with him before Manu cames...Now it is the formation you can hear today in Live! Heavy basselines, and deep Dub riddims!Tchao's VJ have a blog shared with all boudiou VJ friends. You can have a look to what they can do in a party for differents bands just click HERE!
