Snapshots #11

V/A "Performance #1", Anamude

Due to obvious reasons of slow translation, we're unable to provide you with this review in English at the moment. In the meantime, as we're very keen that you should read about the cds we've listened to lately, and if you want to live a strange experience, here's an automated translation by Altavista!

Parisian label, Intercontinental attacks the always perilous exercise of compilation. Always perilous, bus if the unit resembles a too diffuse display, the disc has evil to pass the course of several listenings. On "Performance # 1", not of problem, it makes a success of the bet and allows us to make some very good discoveries. Because if we are not very astonished to find splendid the meeting Herman Düne and Julie Doiron (for us the top of this disc) and the intrumental of Nad Navillus, small Li-Lund literally made us crack with a piece only armed with a piano and of a voice (doubled) pointing out that of very disconcerting Tara Jane O' Neil. Very also purified, the piece of Empress is a small digest of emotions and of minimalism, Clair plays at ease in the court of large while coming to place itself at the side of Red House Painters, Ben Haschish (one of both hairy Herman Düne, André) is useful quite naturally of its vocal cords in Oldham/Molina and of an acoustic guitar for a piece folk all that there is of simpler and direct and one finds its frérot, David-Ivar, with two comrades under the name Satan' S Fingers for a title plus rock'n'roll and also hooker. Behind the name Anamude, hides Ana Hortillosa, unknown factor until now, but which, we hope it sincerely, should not remain it well a long time considering its enormous talent. Only true comparison valid for us with discovered of his first ep, the arrival of Mr. Ward on the turntable. And considering all it although one thinks of Matt... is to say that one adores already Anamude! First access, Ana plays a folk gross which can point out beautiful world, picking in the John Fahey and voice which could be a mixture of those of Kristin Hersh and Chan Marshall, but with the wire of listenings, its music and its melodies become more and more extensive and of personality. And then to as much reveal it immediately, after having listened to only five times this ep, we sent a mall to Ana to propose to him to in short leave a recording its project... here what is called a thunderbolt!
