Folamour has worked under a number of different aliases and makes poetic music. As a DJ he has lit up dance floors all over France, and he also runs the FHUO Records label. This new nine track LP is the start of a busy year that promises more music on Church and Defected, all after some fine outings on labels like Fauxpas Music and All City Records. The excellent album is an ode to his love of Japanese culture and mixes up beats and house samples, disco swing and future jazz in ways that work both in the club and your living room.

The warm and musical ‘Night of Desirable Objects’ kicks things off with loose jazz chords, shuffling beats and welcoming moods that come from smart vocal samples. It’s a brilliantly heartfelt opener that makes way for the slowed down grooves of ‘Y’all Right.’ Trumpets, live drums and gorgeous chords all exude genuine soul and funk, and ‘Petit Prince Du Macadam’ is an exquisite hip hop beat that echoes the great Dilla.

Elsewhere, ‘Ivoire’ is a big, afro-tinged cut with bouncy drums and vocals as well as party-starting percussion. ‘Look at Me or I'll Steal Your Eyes’ then pulls back to perfect loops of funky guitar, trilling chords and organic drum work. Like much of the music here, the loveably rough style of Moodymann is a big presence in this one. French filter styles characterise the sunny disco influenced grooves of ‘Devoted to U’, ‘Oyabun’ is a blissed out bit of romantic house, ‘Kickflipin’ That Stuff’ is another gorgeous hip hop interlude weighed down by hot soul and ‘Jah Love’ is a masterfully melodic piece with splashes of cymbal, brilliant key playing and jazz drums that find their way into your heart.

Folamour comes here with a crossover 12", exploring the whole spectrum of human emotion through

his personal vision of a journey.

The vinyl record starts with Novalaise, sweet memory of the french country where the producer's

from. The track builds itself up around a slow progression of a catchy acoustic piano loop.

The listen goes on with La Pierre et Le Sabre, in which Folamour spreads his love for french 90's

House vibes, paying tribute to soul and gospel, two genres that mainly influence him.

B-side starts with Rue d'Amsterdam, an undeniably Hip-Hop influenced track on which Folamour

develops keyboards, bass and vocal samples around a rough beat, taking the listener away on an

inescapable urban dream.

The record ends with L'Île des Gauchers, bewitching song inspired by Folamour's literary ravings

(Alexandre Jardin in particular). The track progression can be compared as a book reading, rocked by

an ubiquitous bassline, attending its voices until the last furrow.

Kaffe Crème, 21 years old, is finally releasing his debut vinyl EP on his own imprint Moonrise Hill Material founded in February 2015. This year, he took part of multiple projects in addition to the production of this EP such as a Jazz House live creation with piano, flute and percussions and the composition of an electro-symphonic artwork. Due to his classic, contemporary and jazz percussions practice and his love for old school and electronic music, his EP retraces all of his influences and recounts the progress in his musical research this year. The vinyl starts with Kapo Choc (efficient track against floor chips) as a preamble to Kaffe Crème's story in his apartment/studio/hideout from the "Poulaillerie", Lyon, reaching in his hip-hop and big-band influences. The listening continues with Chez Moune, tribute to the skinflint Parisian nightclub that refused to pay Kaffe Crème's first gig in Paris. With multiple influences: traditional indian music, hip-hop and jazz; we can hear Calvin. O Butts saying « we're not against rap, we're not against rapper, but we are against those thugs », the track denounces the non-professionalism of his owners . B-side starts with Jessica Penrose, young and shameless Penrose family's descendant (All characters appearing in this work are fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental), on a raw funk sample structurally built on a Penrosian equation. The vinyl ends with Mountain Flow, ode to the Moonrise Hill Material movement, pure Jazz-influenced Hip-Hop, expressing the daily nonchalance and nihilism of the label's protagonists.
