cd cover Moussu T e lei Jovents
Mademoiselle Marseille (Chant du Monde)
17.99

Tatou and Blu of the Massilia Sound System join Brazilian percussionist Jamilson to explore the city of Marseilles, circa 1930. Provençal songs sit side by side with Vincent Scotto operettas, jazz, blues, Latin and Caribbean dance music, evoking the coastline from Marseille to La Ciotat. This is unique French music, a rough-hewn acoustic sound, augmented by clever electronics, samples and audio archival snippets, all to create a psuedo-historical documentary that might be more true than the real thing. Highly Recommended.

“So much imagination, so many interesting things going on - it’s one of those albums you can’t help returning to and discovering more each time, and in the process you stop comparing it with other musics and realise that it’s a truly fine, original work standing on its own. It has certainly become one of my biggest favourites of this year so far." - fRoots

Please note!
Most CDs have been imported from Europe or Asia. They are not all shrink-wrapped, and I am not going to con you by wrapping them here just to make you think they have been sterilized in America. We guarantee that the CDs and the contents are all brand new and in perfect condition. Whenever I can, I use recycled shipping materials. They may not look as pretty on the outside, but they save money and keep the trash dumps a little bit emptier.
