【臉譜】Soul Continuum

　　澳洲的音樂總會三不五時來點驚喜。

http://www.soulcontinuum.com/

布里斯班的Soul Continuum，是由1986出生（同時也是製作人兼主唱的）的團長James Higgins所組成（前身是Nude Continuum，James Higgins與Princess Freesia所組成，出版過一張專輯，後來解散，James Higgins將之改名又改組，成為現在的Soul Continuum）。

目前Soul Continuum的編制有六人，你可以在他們的音樂中聽到：

lead vocals James Higgins
guitars Ruwan Sena
raps, synth, sax Stevie Keyse
keyboards Euan Gardiner
bass Rob McMullan
drums Todd Byrnes

Soul Continuum秉持著Soul、Disco與Funk精神，並仿傚Jamiroquai和Brand New Heavies等路線，從他們的音樂融合了多元曲風（參考這裡），且在俊俏的James Higgins帶領下，我想是滿吸引目光的。

《Phoenix to Fox》是Soul Continuum的第一張專輯，〈Feet Don't Lie〉是第一首單曲，你可以在這裡得到它。

Feet Don't Lie


Rise of the Phoenix / Feet Don't Lie (Live at the Zoo, Brisbane)


Works for Me (Live at the Zoo, Brisbane)


Mean It Every Time (Live at the Zoo, Brisbane)

【MAD】Madlib

　
這位瘋狂大師近期有三張不同風味的專輯：

***

Madlib Medicine Show #1: Before the Verdict
http://www.stonesthrow.com/store/album/madlib/madlib-medcine-show-no-1

這張基本上是和化名為OJ Simpson的Guilty Simpson一起弄的，少部分概念是來自MED和J-Dilla，稍微接近在HipHop介面上的Madlib自我風格。

***

In Search of Stoney Jackson
http://www.stonesthrow.com/store/album/SAS/stoney-jackson

整張都是Madlib搞的，交由Strong Arm Steady表現，稍微多了點Soul的取樣，當然找來一堆Underground的人來串場，很順暢的一張高評價作品。

（注：Who is Stoney Jackson? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoney_Jackson）

***

Miles Away The Last Electro-Acoustic Space Jazz & Percussion Ensemble
http://www.stonesthrow.com/store/album/the-last-electro-acoustic-space-jazz-percussion-ensemble/miles-away

回到Jazz的世界。Madlib向這個領域的大師們致敬，同時也把他一人分飾多角的五重奏Yesterdays New Quintet給請了出來，創意翻玩。

***

以上全是Madlib的製作，難以想像的創作力。
