New album for Brain Damage. Actually, the French duet is coming back for a new production with 3 heads. To the bass-machine music is intelligently and smartly grafted the voice of Black Sifichi for the whole of the new production.
In the music side, that we can say it's Brain Damage come back to some sound more dub. In the last album, the duo was doing its own sound, its own music: a music which can't be listed in any kind of style if it's not "electro" in a large sense.
For this new album, Brain Damage base its sound on this style which it's own but come but to the source of their music at the same time. By this fact, the musicians produce a emotional sound placed between a Brain Damage's style, a minimal techno and electro-dub. So, again, they experienced the music. Try to find his limits. And naturally, they come back to dub music to do these experimentations.
Actually, which other music can be appropriate for that? And they know perfectly. For the duet, dub music is just an excuse to challenge the laws of all kinds of music. That true, the sound is closer of the last productions than the dub music developed in the older records. A music wouldn't satisfy the purist, but a music based on dub music anyway.
About the voice. What to say? This is the habitual spoken style of Black Sifichi. A heavy timbre. A tone so particular which married well the music and took its exact shape. We feel than the singer know well the sound of Brain Damage. Or the opposite, maybe.
This voice is born for the music of band. The both together create a sublime and subtle entity.

I know what you will think: dub-connection promotes always the same net labels. In fact, not only Original Dub Gathering is a very active label (already 3 releases since the beginning of the year), but it informs us of every release it publishes. So, like that is much more easy to tell about.
Again a free release for the pleasure of our ears. That time, it's the net label Al Dente Records which buckles down to this task with the publication on the EP of "Sushidread meets Axon [Sound]" for a spicy collaboration between the two producers.
