Discover COLDSTREAM, the first track on Look North

Discover COLDSTREAM, the first track on Look North

The trio of Gary Brunton, Daniel Beaussier and Célestine De Williencourt unveil COLDSTREAM, the 4th february 2025 on streaming, a single taken from the album LOOK NORTH (released date : 28 March 2025).

Inspired by British bassist and composer Gary Brunton's childhood memories, the track offers a poetic immersion in landscapes of mystery and emotion, where mists stretch over vast expanses of water and every note seems to evoke the murmur of the River Tweed or the changing light of a Scottish morning.

Gary Brunton explains: ‘Coldstream is a small Scottish town where I spent my childhood holidays. Crossed by the River Tweed, it was my first trip abroad at the age of six, full of discovery and wonder. It was these memories - the coldness of the water, the fog on the rivers, the immensity of nature - that inspired me to write this melody’.

The title, literally translated as ‘cold stream’, recreates this sensory climate through a delicate composition. ‘As a child, I have memories of swimming in a river in Yorkshire, a sensation of intense cold. So I was inspired by these memories and I was looking to create a musical climate where you could imagine the fog, the icy water’.

Between E minor and C major, Coldstream blends the sounds of Gary Brunton's double bass, Daniel Beaussier's bass clarinet and English horn, and Célestine De Williencourt's voice and flutes. Together, the three artists explore a world of sound where tradition and modernity meet.

In this composition, musical interactions are at the heart of the creation: vocal improvisations played through the flute, a subtle dialogue between the double bass and the English horn, and sound textures that evoke in turn the cold light of dawn and the immensity of the Scottish landscape.

Gary Brunton, double bassist and tabla player, has forged a solid career for himself in France. An acclaimed composer and arranger, he has collaborated with such iconic figures as Sheila Jordan and Bojan Z.
Daniel Beaussier, master of the winds, explores a vast range of instruments. His English horn and clarinet playing enriches the deep harmonies of Coldstream.
Célestine De Williencourt, a passionate vocalist and flautist, breathes a singular, poetic energy into the mix, between vocal improvisation and timbral exploration.

With Coldstream, this exceptional trio embarks on a deeply evocative musical project. Coldstream is available now on all platforms, and soon on the LOOK NORTH album.

Gary Brunton, Daniel Beaussier and Célestine de Williencourt form a brand-new trio of multi-instrumentalists with a strong vocal presence, performing original works and inspired contemporary improvisations. The trio express itself via a certain form of Jazz Chamber Music. Through a narrative and lyrical approach to jazz creation, LOOK NORTH, the trio's first album, takes you on a unique journey that evokes the wide-open spaces of Northern lands. An invitation to discover their captivating melodies and exciting spontaneous improvisations.

Gary Brunton (double bass, tabla) evolves in the company of Daniel Beaussier (oboe, clarinets, saxophones, flutes, English horn) and Célestine De Williencourt (voice, flutes). They form a unique trio, with each instrument playing its role in a fluid, organic musical conversation. The diversity of the musicians' instruments and influences (Jimmy Giuffre, John Surman & Karen Krog, Jim Hall, Gary Peacock, Carla Bley), creates a rich atmosphere, both intimate and expansive, where improvisation plays a central role.

Mais comment vivre avec ?
Cette histoire, notre héritage, tout ce bagage
Pour assumer cet échec
Comment pouvoir, sans décevoir, tant de savoir

Des colosses imaginaires
Aux héros fictifs d’un autre temps
Nous sommes bombardés de références, de souffrances, si latentes
De regrets qui ne sont pas des contes
Des récits bien ingérés
Mêlés à notre petit quotidien
Nous sommes partagés à choisir
Fantasmer ou bien vivre
Nos vies peuvent-elles être des contes ?

C’est comme un livre sans fin
Une infinité d’hérédité qui s’ouvre à nous
Mais il faut le bon niveau de lecture
Pour déchiffrer, interpréter

C’est une étincelle si brève mais pourtant si belle
C’est comme un éclair, frappant et figeant le temps

Colosses imaginaires
Regrets qui ne sont pas des contes
Nos vies peuvent-elles être des contes ?

C’est une étincelle si brève mais pourtant si belle
C’est comme un éclair, frappant et figeant le temps

Ce sont des fulgurances passées
Qui nous inspirent, qui nous transcendent, qui nous emportent
Ce pont invisible et indicible
Peut s’écraser, doit résister : notre héritage

C’est une étincelle si brève mais pourtant si belle
C’est comme un éclair, frappant et figeant le temps

Lyrics and music : R.PIERRE, N.DIJOUX, F.ACX, N. JEANNETEAU et D.MARCHANT – ÉDITIONS AMOC

«Écrasés par notre Héritage», is both an homage and a question about the marks we leave behind a lucid, painful look at what we pass on to future generations.

With this new album, SPLIT BRAIN delivers metal that is not only innovative but meaningful, where rage meets reflection, and each track is a call to open our eyes.

LE DERNIER COMMUNISTE ON ALL SCREENS

LE DERNIER COMMUNISTE ON ALL SCREENS

"Le Dernier Communiste" by Bagdad Rodeo is like a nightmare filled with riffs, nods, and candid lyrics. In this track from "QUATRE – L’ALBUM SANS FIN – PART.1", everything hits hard, including hammer blows to our consciences, all with the raw, provocative energy that defines the band. Here is a caricature of the abandonment of Marxist ideals and class struggle, set in a quirky, festive, and colorful atmosphere. A nearly premonitory track, written by Christobal Sanchez Del Rodéo and MGR Delatourette, just before the last French legislative elections in the summer of 2024. An independent, alternative rock song that now reflects a trend for some to veer right, even dangerously close to the edge.

https://youtu.be/ISGw3y-qp0Y

The video clip, directed by Bertrand Boissimon, presents a unique and ironic vision of today’s society. Through a character, "le dernier communiste," Bagdad Rodeo questions power dynamics and the role of ideologies in an era dominated by money. True to its offbeat style, the band also includes humorous elements, such as the presence of Vladimir Spoutnik in his own role. Vladimir Spoutnik is a colorful character: “50% crooner, 50% DJ, 50% comedian, and 100% mustachioed,” he never ceases to surprise with his versatility and unique charisma. A consummate performer, reporter, or true Master of Ceremonies, Vladimir Spoutnik captivates wherever he is and whatever he does. His magnetic presence and inimitable style make him an essential figure in the underground scene and the ideal feature for this new Bagdad Rodeo video. He is the last communist, anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, anti-fascist, and he feels alone.

To add a twist, the extras in the video are none other than the guests from MGR Delatourette's recent wedding, naturally exploited on that day for budget reasons—a clever touch of self-deprecation that echoes the themes in the song. A playful nod to the reality of independent production, always marked by resourcefulness and creativity.

With its sharp guitars and biting lyrics, "Le Dernier Communiste" invites reflection on today’s world while unleashing an irresistible musical energy. In a rebellious spirit, Bagdad Rodeo challenges conventions with a track that combines political engagement and social critique, all without taking itself too seriously.

ÉCRASÉS PAR NOTRE HÉRITAGE BY SPLIT BRAIN

ÉCRASÉS PAR NOTRE HÉRITAGE BY SPLIT BRAIN

Get ready to dive into a sea of powerful riffs and sharp lyrics! SPLIT BRAIN unveils their new album, «Écrasés par notre Héritage», a bold fusion of thrash and death metal, where each track hits like a raw truth—delivered in French. This unique choice amplifies their sound with a depth and emotion that anchors their music in both a lyrical and cultural context.

This new release, recorded at Studio 180 under the guidance of Arnaud Bascuñana, is the product of meticulous work where each live and analog take captures the raw and spontaneous essence of SPLIT BRAIN. That vibrant texture is felt in every song, speaking to us directly—brutally yet sensitively.

https://youtu.be/fg_z_lSfgUE

Themes that strike and resonate

At the heart of this album are themes as powerful as they are universal: anger, responsibility, and decline. From the very first track, «Il paraît qu’on a déjà tout dit», SPLIT BRAIN raises the question of artistic innovation in a world overloaded with words. Yet, throughout the album, the band shows that there are important, essential things left unheard.

The single «De la Colère à la Haine», released on September 27, explores the intensity of an emotion as it transforms and intensifies, while «Acteurs de notre Déchéance» questions our role in our own lives: are we actors or mere spectators? Rémi, the band’s singer and lyricist, leads us through these reflections, offering lyrics that provoke deep thought. «Et alors on s’élèvera…», another powerful track on the album, takes us into a wave of melancholy and transcendence, a quest for redemption in a disillusioned world.

A sonic heritage: melody and brutality fused in analog

The album closes on a high note with «Jusqu’à se consumer», a final track that symbolizes the inescapable nature of our passage through this world. Each note, each riff, reminds us of the fleeting nature of it all. The eponymous track, «Écrasés par notre Héritage», is both an homage and a question about the marks we leave behind—a lucid, painful look at what we pass on to future generations.

With this new album, SPLIT BRAIN delivers metal that is not only innovative but meaningful, where rage meets reflection, and each track is a call to open our eyes.
