"formidable !!" FRANCE INTER

TELERAMA fff (on aime beaucoup)

La pop coréenne n'est pas née avec Psy et son Gangnam Style. Dans les années 60, le crooner Bae Ho roucoulait déjà en tête des charts avec sa variété hybride inspirée des grands orches­tres populaires occidentaux. Fauché en pleine gloire à 29 ans (1971), il ­ressuscite dans l'hommage inattendu d'Etienne de la Sayette, saxophoniste dont on connaissait plus les amours « éthiopiques » (le groupe Akalé Wubé) et la sensibilité afro-jazz (témoin le ­récent Maputo Queens) que le tropisme asiatique. Sa relecture instrumentale, avec piano, guitare, batterie et claviers vintage (Victor Michaud, pour les arrangements), met en valeur les mélodies fabuleuses et les couleurs très cinématographi­ques de ce répertoire. Il y agrège swing vintage et valse de Chostakovitch, volutes planantes et halo sucré d'un dialogue de soap opera. Résultat : ses climats lyriques distillent un poison mélancolique addictif, façon In the mood for love, mais évoquent aussi l'esprit western-spaghetti d'Ennio Morricone, avec une petite touche délicieusement kitsch. - Anne Berthod

***** SONGLINES (UK)
A french quintet offering modern jazz-influenced covers of a Korean crooner ? Even the theoretical infinte monkeys at their typewriters might have struggled to come up with the idea. Led by maverick producer Etienne de la Sayette, Baeshi Bang distil the style of 1960's Korean vocalist Bae Ho and the era he occupied, in wich the lush arrangements were tailored as precisely as the singer's immaculate suits.
Retro is skilfully interwoven with modern throughout. On "Taeyangei Jeopyon" a Clavioline electronic keyboard emerges amidst a madcap minimalist orchestration. The us of this unusual instrument, famously emplyed on the Tornadoes "Telstar", subtly recalls an age when it was possible for instrumentals to rule the airwaves. The Korean elements elegantly sidestep the pitfalls of asian kitsch. Electric guitar and gayageum (Zither) riff in tandem on "Hwangpo Todtae", an uplifting slice of surf-soul, wich features teh revelatory French horn playing of Victor Michaud, duetting with de la Sayette's tenor sax on a breezy melody. This atypical album is beguiling, its rich textured arrangements bearing repeat listens. - Liam Isod
