KIZABA - LIVE SHOW IN BOGOTA ( FESTIVAL AFROFUTURISMO)

Lionel Kizaba, auteur-compositeur-interprète, multi-instrumentiste et pionnier de la musique électro afro-congolaise basé à Montréal, a tracé un chemin musical unique. Avec une fusion du français, de l'anglais, du kikongo et du lingala, ses compositions transcendent les barrières linguistiques. En 2022, il entame sa première tournée aux États-Unis, sur la célèbre scène principale du festival historique de jazz de la Nouvelle-Orléans aux côtés d'artistes emblématiques tels que Lionel Richie, Ceelo Green, Charlie Wilson et The Foo Fighters. Son parcours remarquable s'est poursuivi alors qu'il a captivé le public lors d'événements de premier plan comme le Festival International de Louisiane, le Festival Africa Oyé en Angleterre, Mapas en Espagne, Circulart à Medellin en Colombie, Womad Chili, Mundial Montréal, M Pour Montréal, Séoul Music Week Korea et Global Toronto. Les performances de Kizaba sont enrichies par la collaboration de musiciens talentueux originaires de Cuba, d'Haïti, de Côte d'Ivoire et du Québec. S'inspirant de son éducation congolaise, ses spectacles arborent un style musical diversifié. Il tisse astucieusement des vocalisations ancestrales avec les sons vibrants du Soukous-Congolais et de l'Afrobeat, imprégnés d'une philosophie Afro-Punk Rock. Pour offrir une expérience sensorielle complète, les productions scéniques de Kizaba intègrent des visuels fascinants influencés par les masques traditionnels congolais et Africain, évoquant une ambiance psychédélique.

KOKIA in flashback - 2014

KOKIA starts off 2014 by returning to Japan for her third New Year's concert, looking back on a turbulent year with a smile towards the future. She also releases her first ever live recorded album: COLOR OF LIFE, the recording of her 15th anniversary concert by the same name. The darker cover is an alternative one for pre-orders.

KOKIA is also included on another Yuri Hiranuma album: PRISM, featuring song covers of songs used by figure skaters in their programs. KOKIA covers Hana ni nare ('become a flower') in English, with the original song used by Yuzuru Hanyu in one of his past routines. KOKIA actually forgot to talk about it in her blog until watching the Olympics this year, where Hanyu goes on to win gold (albeit with a different song).

She returns to London again after her early year activities, only to return in May for her big venue concert Release, which gets an additional concert as the original 2 days sell out quickly.

Just ahead of the concert, KOKIA announces she's getting married this year, and when she goes back to London this time, it's with wedding dress in tow, so she can take commemorative pictures in England as well. She also ends the year with something exciting: her first ever concert backed by a full orchestra, appropriately titled Falling in love with the orchestra.

Avondopname van concertgebouw De Doelen met op de achtergrond het Centraal Station, november-december 1972.

De Doelen is een concert- en congresgebouw in Rotterdam. Het is met ruim 450.000 concertbezoekers bij 600 concerten per jaar het tweede concertgebouw van Nederland ná het Koninklijk Concertgebouw te Amsterdam, maar voor TivoliVredenburg te Utrecht. Samen met de congres- en evenementenbezoekers loopt dit aantal op tot ruim 650.000 bezoekers per jaar. Het Rotterdams Philharmonisch Orkest (RPhO) is de belangrijkste huurder van de Doelen. Voorts worden er pop, jazz en klassieke muziek gespeeld en faciliteert het gebouw het International Film Festival Rotterdam met kassa- en informatieruimten en filmzalen.

De naam komen we voor het eerst tegen in de 17e eeuw, toen door een groep stadsmuzikanten regelmatig concerten werden gegeven in een gebouw genaamd ‘De Doele’ dat aan het Haagseveer stond, dicht bij de Delftsche Poort. Dit gebouw was een vervanging van de bestaande St. Joris Doele, dat sinds de middeleeuwen de sociëteit was geweest van het gilde van de voetboogschutters (een doelen). Voetboogschutters oefenden in het boogschieten op 'doelen'. Dit schuttersgilde kreeg in 1697 officieel vergunning om in hun gebouw concerten te organiseren.

In 1844 werd ter vervanging van De Doele aan het Haagseveer de Groote Doelezaal aan de Coolsingel geopend, maar deze moest een kleine eeuw later, in 1930, wegens bouwvalligheid worden gesloten. In 1934 werd de nieuwe, herbouwde Doelenzaal in gebruik genomen. Deze werd in mei 1940 bij het bombardement van Rotterdam verwoest.

De eerste paal voor het huidige gebouw werd op 9 juli 1962 geslagen door Eduard Flipse (dirigent van het RPhO). Op 18 mei 1966 werd het nieuwe concert- en congresgebouw de Doelen geopend. Hiermee werd een traditionele naam in ere hersteld. De goede akoestiek van het nieuwe gebouw wordt geroemd. Tevens was het gebouw een bekroning van de wederopbouw in de eerste twee decennia na de oorlog.

AllMusic Staff Pick Charlie Haden The Montreal Tapes [Joe Henderson/Al Foster]

Recorded on the opening night of the Festival International de Jazz de Montreal as part of an eight-concert series paying tribute to Charlie Haden. While the other evenings all featured stellar musicians and wonderful collaborations, this one is special because it features Haden in a trio of players not usually associated with him: drummer Al Foster -- fresh from Miles Davis' band, and the late tenor giant Joe Henderson. In fact, Haden has subtitled the set, "Tribute to Joe Henderson."

L’Impératrice Unveils ‘Pulsar’: A Bold Fusion of Global Sounds and Electrifying Dance Anthems

The emerging band L’Impératrice recently unveiled their upcoming album Pulsar, set to release on June 7th through Microqlima. This album marks a vibrant journey through genres they adore, seamlessly blending hip-hop, kosmische, and contemporary pop. This release is particularly notable for its bold incorporation of French Touch and international house music. Pulsar is also the first of their albums to feature guest artists, including folk/pop singer Maggie Rogers and rapper/producer Erick the Architect, among others. Concurrently, they released the new single “Danza Marilú (feat. Fabiana Martone),” a spirited tribute to Italo-disco, celebrating the freedom of women of all ages on the dance floor. In anticipation of their sold-out shows in New York City and their forthcoming appearances at Coachella, the band released an animated video for the single, created by Arthur Sevestre. Known for their electrifying live performances at major U.S. festivals such as Coachella, Outside Lands, and Austin City Limits, L’Impératrice has rapidly grown a dedicated fanbase, with over 45,000 tickets sold for their upcoming international tour this fall. The single “Danza Marilú” follows “Me Da Igual,” encapsulating a sensual vibe with its catchy Spanish title. These early releases from Pulsar offer glimpses into the album’s diverse and global influences, a continuation of their international tours promoting their 2021 album “Tako Tsubo.” Pulsar is a fully self-produced record that embodies the essence of L’Impératrice both on and off stage. The album exudes the energy and wisdom of a band experienced in igniting dance floors worldwide, finding its unique voice along the way. Vocalist Flore Benguigui passionately delivers messages of self-empowerment and challenges societal norms like beauty standards and ageism, aligning perfectly with the album’s vibrant anthems. While crafting the album, L’Impératrice experimented with a novel approach by dividing into two dynamic teams to foster creativity, a strategy spearheaded by the band’s founder, Charles de Boisseguin. This method allowed for a richer collaboration, drawing on the diverse backgrounds and passions of its members. Benguigui, a seasoned jazz vocalist, often explored numerous vocal melodies per track to find the perfect fit, illustrating the band’s commitment to their craft. This collaborative and explorative process took about nine months from inception to recording, reflecting the band’s autonomy and artistic vision. By embracing diverse languages, perspectives, and territories, with enjoyment as their guiding principle, Pulsar stands as a joyful declaration from a band eager to express themselves authentically.
