OUT OF ORDBID - Wisdom of crowd

vinyl

Musician and producer Eitan Reiter aka Out Of Orbit presents Wisdom of The Crowd: psychedelic, profound, unique and raw. Eitan is well known as half LOUD in the world of Psytrance and his adventures in Techno, Acid & Downtempo music as well as a sought-after remixer under his own name. In the last two years, Eitan has decided to step back from the stage and devote himself entirely to the making of an album, without taking a clear direction, he has really gone for Out of Orbit. The result is a musical story, a plunge into trance, a disruption of genres and borders, a journey through sound.


CHUCK BERRY - Essentials Work 1955 - 1962

vinyl-1

The perfect album to initiate yourself or to help the youngest discover the essence of rock'n roll! One of the pioneers of rock'n roll: Chuck Berry, author, composer, performer, has spent 60 years alternately at the top of the charts and behind bars. For robbing three shops, stealing a car and possessing weapons, he spent two years in a reformatory and was released in 1947. It is his meeting with Muddy Waters and especially Leonard Chess in 1955 that transforms his life, he records a country song by Bob Wills that he renames Maybellene and sells more than a million copies. He reaches number one in the R&B charts, the first of a long series of hits, recorded for the Chess label, all of which are featured on this album. We recommend the documentary if you want to discover more about this iconic artist: Chuck Berry; The Original King of Rock 'N' Roll, directed by Jon Brewer.


SERGE GAINSBOURG - À la Maison de la Radio

vinyl-2

In these eight moving songs, alone at the piano or accompanied by a guitar and double bass, Gainsbourg takes on the role of the disappointed lover as well as the disillusioned cynic. These unpublished recordings are a perfect summary of the first decade of his career. In 1964 and 1966, when Serge Gainsbourg took part in two public recordings at the Maison de la Radio, he was undeniably the star of the evening. This was, in his own words, the end of his "blue period", a period of Left Bank songs, jazz influences and exotic rhythms. He is the master of chiaroscuro and double meaning, a poet with biting irony.


CHALI 2NA - Fish Outta Water

vinyl-3

Bewitching baritone voice and striking lyrics, let yourself be carried away by the titles of this exclusive re-release. Fish Outta Water is Chali 2na's first studio album. Charlie Stewart, his real name, is originally from Chicago. He quickly moved to Los Angeles where he founded the mythical group Jurassic 5, one of the most striking voices in US hip hop with its singular low bass flow. He has collaborated among others with the Black Eyed Peas, Blackalicious, Roots Manuva, Mos Def or Linkin Park.
