Bio
..ROCK & FOLK Novembre 2009 .. Qualité France .... Après avoir pendant des années prétendu que le rock était mort, tous les médias célèbrent son grand retour. Cette rubrique s’abstiendra de telles énormités puisqu’elle dresse le constat régulier de la persistance de la fièvre électrique par delà les modes. Mais ce retour de flamme donne des ailes à certains, comme en témoigne la sélection du mois parmi les quarante-trois disques parvenus à la rédaction. .. Red Velvet est un duo franco-italien unissant un chanteur-guitariste et un batteur qui tâte des synthétiseurs et des samplers. Deux ans après ses débuts, il livre un premier album qui relève d’un rock indé adepte de climats ténébreux, de ruptures et de contrastes. Si l’on peut retrouver des traces de ses influences majeures (Sonic Youth et les Smashing Pumkins), il s’émancipe par la force et la densité de son propos musical qui l’entraîne bien loin des sentiers battus vers un horizon où le rock rejoint l’expérimental." .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.... .. .. .. .. .. .. ..-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.. Red Velvet is the eponymous debut album from a young French/Italian duo comprised of David Chalmin (guitarist, singer-songwriter) & Reeks (drums, electronics, synth & sampler), a stirring and eclectic mix of styles that incorporates such elements as the fiery thrust of modern indie-rock, the shifting tempos and melodies of post-rock and the complexity of contemporary electronic, all with a distinctly personal slant that comes from years of close collaboration between Red Velvet’s two protagonists... Influenced by groups as diverse as Sonic Youth, The Smashing Pumpkins, Radiohead, Led Zeppelin and Aphex Twin, it was at Brancaleone in Rome, where they meet to rehearse and record, that Red Velvet found its sound, discovering a rare common ground between opposites; analog and digital, rock and electronic, live and sampled. .. Inspired by their involvement with the band B For Bang and after several performances in European festivals (Montpellier Radio France, Ruhr, Ravello, Bremen, Ferrara, Barcelone/Sitges and more), Chalmin and Reeks decided to record their first album. The preparation and production of the album have given the duo the opportunity to develop a new sonic dimension in their sound, delivering a dark indie rock, chaotic full of contrasts. ..
