contenu : After releasing their first EP in October 2023, BASIC PARTNER unveiled their debut album <a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/5zUatOPQTR10dR9SOV135T?si=HG93s5r_TvSJrigyNYoTnw" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">NEW DECADE</a> in April 2025, on À Tant Rêver Du Roi and Daydream Music. This first LP explores an era of anxiety and renewal, blending cold romanticism, contemporary urgency, and an energy that defies any label. Forged in Nantes, amid friendships, garage jams at Collectif Terrier, and a vibrant local scene, the band pushes electronics to flirt with post-punk with the same ease as adding a pinch of salt to an already perfectly seasoned dish. With their new single <a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/7s84Qg2ssaloPUquY6CdpS?si=YBX6x98IS_SKq7Z-5ObuNw" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">FADELESS</a>, BASIC PARTNER opens a chapter that is more pop and more incandescent, while never renouncing the lucid melancholy that runs through their compositions. Their lyrics, metaphorical and incisive, resonate like anthems of revolt and solidarity, delivering political energy without sacrificing poetry. Since 2022, the band has performed over 80 concerts, asserting a powerful stage presence. They have played at Liberté in Rennes, the Zénith in Nantes, and internationally with tours in China, Spain, Portugal, and England. In April 2025, they celebrated the release of NEW DECADE with a sold-out show at Point Éphémère in Paris, before performing at La Machine du Moulin Rouge as part of MaMA. Following a standout performance at Transmusicales 2024, and a live session recorded for <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzwyYHsUTuE&list=RDvzwyYHsUTuE&start_radio=1">KEXP</a>, BASIC PARTNER continues their trajectory with a strong visual identity and a captivating live show, making them one of the most singular and promising projects on today’s independent scene. A band forging its own path, with a style uniquely their own: melancholic, furious, and unapologetically alive. <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/4mO0SduTbxEusUepUcjNj3?si=BYlIU0WlRz6zGqS9Vgv5nQ">Stream here</a>

KAU is joining Odessa Maison d’Artistes! 11/12/25 - 10:00 maxime Booking

photo : 1376
contenu : To fully appreciate KAU's music, you'll have to be willing to surrender in order to rise, to forget preconceived formats and stylistic chapels in order to simply reconnect with the primal love of music, the one that makes an inexplicable link between body, brain and heart. Born in Brussels, KAU brings together a German keyboardist (Jan Janzen), an Italian bassist (Matteo Genovese) and a Norwegian drummer (André Breidlid), all determined to escape the shackles of the past to create pure, personal music. Trained at the conservatory, while working on rock aesthetics with their previous band, the three instrumentalists came together at Covid with the idea of creating a free, travelling tape, linking their influences and reviving the creativity and audacity of the format so dear to hip hop. Let's not be too hasty and pigeonhole KAU in the catch-all category of new school jazz. In fact, the trio's racy, hypnotic syncretism of synthetic music, heady melodies, electronic groove and witty beatmaking is a success. Unknown Waveforms is aptly named, as it embodies a plunge into the unknown, favoring vibe over the sometimes restrictive format of the pop or jazz album. Atmospheres that hark back to free music, where tonal breaks and sonic discoveries lead to unexpected dancing. Recorded at the Woluwe Park freehouse in Brussels, while snow was falling outside the studio, Unknown Waveforms is a sound film concerned with the links between human and machine, the contrast between a luminous future and the fear of darkness. In the image of its entirely acoustic outro, KAU holds on to its humanity, its spontaneity, embracing its imperfections and touching without thinking on the ecstasy of every musician: that of a creativity that is never restrained, that speaks to as many people as possible, without denying its artistic demands. After The Cycle Repeats, their debut album released in 2023, and concerts all over the place (including an appearance on the Dour mainstage), KAU is back with Unknown Waveforms, and presents itself as a new centerpiece of Brussels Sound, as well as a hopeful sign of a new music scene on the cusp of hip hop, synth jazz and club music. <a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6qj3YQkOT39KWw0n1f7WbH?si=D2LxfSEsQJajAAvR4CVJFA">Stream here</a>

Gaia Banfi is joining Odessa Maison d’Artistes! 02/12/25 - 09:00 maxime Booking

photo : 1357
contenu : Drawing inspiration from the sea's rough ripples, luminous paths, and shadowy alleys, singer-songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Gaia Banfi presents her new album, La Maccaia. Preceded by <a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/5o7L3qD86zgexWUSbshUed?si=16ee6b4f26b349e9">Piazza Centrale</a> and <a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/3DHO4pR1hsqSdrgQGDcdRX?si=2dbf621dda3f4946">Seia</a>, the album moves through memory, blending singer-songwriter music, pop, and electronic experimentation to tell a timeless story. Influenced by her childhood home, La Maccaia takes its name from a specific meteorological phenomenon in the Gulf of Genoa, where humidity forms a fog that blends with the sea, previously referenced by Paolo Conte. Gaia Banfi envisions the album as an imaginary landscape across seven tracks, imagining listening to it while walking along the Genoese coastline, creating an atmosphere of subtle shadows and slowly emerging images. The album cover features a dowsing rod, symbolizing a search for past images and memories, reinforcing the reflective, almost meditative journey the music invites. Compelling in its contrast between acid and softer tones, minimalism and majestic arrangements, La Maccaia showcases Gaia Banfi’s music as it flows effortlessly between influences like Bon Iver, Radiohead, Floating Points, Stan Getz, and Robert Wyatt, alongside meditative and popular music traditions. Deconstructed song structures intertwine with intimate, evocative storytelling reminiscent of De André and Lucio Battisti, while her voice alternates between enveloping warmth and piercing clarity, often blending with choirs that convey a collective urge to sing, all anchored by a steady, cadenced rhythm. <a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/4atG7yAO3KzgNissARQQM4?si=YiJWyW4QRXmUC-X2Eh2VUw">Stream here</a>
