C2C's album is finally out, needless to say that I was pretty excited to get my hands on it.
It's pretty much a flawless album, except for Down The Road that I still find awfuly average and I don't even understand how they could chose it to be their first EP, that song's incredibly weak compared to the rest of the album.
If you like melting pots, you'll be served, because it's filled with influences from Gospell to Jungle, Jazz to Hip Hop, all this with great voices.
Voices you say ? Half of the tracks include featurings from people such as Derek Martin or Olivier Daysoul.
The Cell opens the album, and from what I've heard it's also their opener when they do a live, more than understandable, the progression is amazing.
Happy, the more than well named song, features Derek Martin's golden voice in a very Gospel influenced track that'll make you enjoy a long train trip like nothing else.
Delta on the other hand is more than actual, beat juggling, scratching, samples coming from everywhere... I don't like rating songs, but this deserves 11/10.
Olivier Daysoul's been on my little list of voices I love since his track with Hudson Mohawke, Joy Fantastic. I didn't know what to expect, that song could have been heading in a lot of different directions, they decided to keep it "classic" and it works, god does it work.
Last C2C song I'll post today, Arcades, from Down The Road EP, but also on this album with F.U.Y.A. and Down The Road. You probably heard it a lot, but this time it comes with a video!
My little bonus, because I know a lot of you've been waiting for The Magician
