As I fluttered through the album shelf in a well-known store, one album caught my eye more than others. Perhaps it is the exotic French inscription, Gare du Nord, or the oval and intriguing wrapping, but in my opinion the combination of the two is the winner, since at that time the journey still clung to me following my return from Paris and I have always loved the purple color. Gare du Nord is the busiest train station in Europe and is located in the heart of Paris. The name means "the station of the north", and I think it is the most appropriate name for this pair, thanks to the versatility, urbanity, speed and changing styles that characterize railway stations in general and their music in particular. This is the second album of the French-inspired duo, which originally came from Germany and Belgium. Most of the songs were produced in large industrial cities such as Memphis, Berlin and London, and the album was produced in just three weeks. Despite the little time, the album is a delightful and colorful combination of sounds, languages and colors. A combination of different styles of blues, bossa nova, electronic music, jazz and a lot of soul that create one album with a clean and light sound and an uneven but complete musical line.
The album opens with the Kind Of Cool section, which has a distinctly urban feel. It was as if, at this moment, the door of the train car closed and galloped toward the next stop. A pleasant start accompanied by light jazz touches and an urban groove. Next, Sold My Soul, presents a different and different side from the opening, a combination of blues music touching along with wonderful and deep text, all of which is won by the pleasant voice of C Robert Walker who collaborates with the duo. In the fourth section, Panchira, Indian oriental music is associated with an amazing female voice and involves Western electronic rhythm. Panchira is a Japanese expression that was said to a Japanese girl with her skirt up and part of her body exposed. The album cover shows this picture not by chance. To a certain extent I felt that the duo had left no room for coincidence and closed all the edges, creating a clean and accurate album. The sixth track, Dark Chill , was written in the wake of the Twin Towers disaster, a symbol of the dark moments that accompany our lives. There is a mix of chilling media reports with threatening and mesmerizing music.
Later on the album the train continues to gallop between languages ??and places, Busana Nova melodies, light jazz and Latin rhythms. I could really feel the city, the place and the atmosphere in the wake of rooted music. The track that closes the album, Tres Cool, is like the final station, the sound of the groove from the opening returns again in a way that sums up the whole long trip. The auctioneer calls everyone to come down. Beyond the pleasant sounds that make you want to lie on a couch in the sun, it seems that the album is a quick urban creation of changing styles and sounds from one of the creators' ears. Beyond that, it hints at the universality of the Gare du Nord music center. The variety of styles that characterize the album gives it a special touch of internationality, a kind of touching the soul while riding a cool train around the world. When the final station is not known, every listener can choose a place to go down. Translate by Google http://www.106fm.co.il/albums/12771
