Currently on tour in France and Belgium (no concerts in Holland, typical): Jennifer Charles and Oren Bloedlow, a.k.a. Elysian Fields. Imagine Francoise Hardy singing a Joy Division-song, and you have an idea how Elysian Fields sound. Sexy, smokey, with dark undertones. They've just released a new album called Bum Raps and Love Taps, but the reason I'm posting two tracks here is that Jennifer sounds even sexiër when she sings in French, and lucky for me/you, she recorded a few francophone tracks. The mournful Les Amour Perdues (1), a Serge Gainsbourg-cover for John Zorn's Great Jewish Music-series, and the seductive Monsieur crandait les demoiselles (2), a track from the duet-album with Jean-Louis Murat. But this track Jennifer sings by herself. Close the curtains, light just one candle, keep an Edgar Allen Poe-book at hand, and listen to this gorgeous fille gothique.woensdag 28 september 2005
