LA SUITE BIZARRE : SEX, FUNK & ELECTROBIZARRE
Way back in another century, left behind on the garbage site in our memory, in what was then called the eighties, a German group called KRAFTWERK emerged. Many of us (especially the older reader) remember their hit “Autobahn”: a repetitive refrain saying “Bahn bahn auf die autobahn” on a smooth electric layer of synthesizers and sounds of cars passing by, all of it attributed to a trance-like hypnotizing sound.
Around the same time in good old England THOMAS DOLBY had a dancehall hit with “she blinded me science”, music which was to be filed under DISCO, but that sounded like pop of a century still ahead of us. All around Europe groups emerged that sounded more electronic, yes, even industrial, and less like pop music.
Electronic pop music was born, at the end of the 20th century, but digital pop music (the use of computers for composing songs) was still to come.
As the new age grew closer, disco music transformed into house, techno and the like; dance music became more and more instrumental, but still some “rebels” like PRINCE and BECK refused to give in and kept on producing danceable music with poppy lyrics.
Now we are in the 21st century and here comes a band called LA SUITE BIZARRE and although it is true that their inspiration has to be found in the last century, their music surely sounds like the 21st century.
With LA SUITE BIZARRE we can glimpse the intention to melt the slightly impersonal electronic music with a feeling, a warm voice; emotion. Hence, it is no surprise to us that this new project has a different approach as to the instruments being used: the drums have given away to hand percussion played by a Dutch percussionist; the harmony is enriched by a French saxophone player; a deejay has enforced the band and as a result the music has become more funky, therefore the more appropriate term ELECTROFUNK.
The lyrics are simple: their goal is, like in the best TALKING HEADS tradition, to support the music, not the other way around. Israel stated that the main theme in the lyrics is sexuality; in the “read-between-the-lines way, as in the black American
Funk music of the seventies.
So here we are with BIZARRE music, music that seemed to be recorded in a fancy hotel in a 200 euro p. night SUITE, in the early morning hours after one of these famous booze & sex infested parties…
