Renowned for the effectiveness of his power able to deride the strictest faces and to confuse the most numb muscles, proven on stages where he is recognized as a natural propagator of boiling and feverish vibrations, Pat Kalla and his Super Mojo reveal with the album “Belle Terre” a new unsuspected power.
From diffuse, the heat will first become comforting and pleasant, then gradually spread from body to soul. The Africano-disco groove is now clean and airy. The bass drum kicks are spaced and the words pass. Those of Pat Kalla, also the voice of Voilàà, storyteller of light or serious stories with musical and dancing consciousness, mix of philosophy of life and wisdom. Reflections on the world and human relationships that are mainly read in subtext and images.
Can we devote ourselves to moments when we think of nothing, but to be together?
Can’t we dance in the mud and on the embers, even if it doesn’t last long?
Doing the lesson is not in the side effects of Super Mojo. Telling to radiate the outside as much as the inside is, however, its main beneficial effect. Habituation is voluntary, and the Super Mojo, the best musical relaxation when words no longer resonate, leaving organic instruments, vintage keyboards, and Afro-Cuban pianos to express themselves.
Highlife, mixed rumba, biguine, funk, afrobeat ; in these known ingredients, but where proportions and dosages are kept secret, are invited essences of vocal flowers harvested on the island of Reunion, the West Indies or Africa.
The complementary harmonies of the duo Bonbon Vodou, the Creole sun of Olivia Victorin (Dowdelin), the joyful melancholy of the French-Congolese Rebecca M’Boungou (Kolinga). All knew how to touch the heart and sensitivity of Pat Kalla, to talk about love, embark on a dream trip, or communicate with the spirit of the elders.
Directed by Guts, “Belle Terre”, the 3rd album of Pat Kalla and his Super Mojo, can also cause some psychedelic disorders in the most receptive subjects. If so, then all the potential has been unleashed.
Until the most unexpected.
