V Ljubljano zopet prihaja skupina Kosheen.
Tokrat bo nastopila v intimnem vzdušju Orto kluba in sicer v postavi, ki je
navdušila pozimi v Kranjski gori.
Jedro skupine tvorijo Markee Substance,
Darren Decoder in zaščitni znak – pevka Sian Evans. Skupina je pred kratkim
izdala svoj tretji album Damage, ki
ga je najavil single Overkill. Zvok je
nadgradnja dosedanjega dela, torej prepletanje mnogih zvrsti, na kratko pa bi
to lahko označili kot plesno glasbo z rock dušo.
Na koncertu poleg novega materiala
pričakujemo stare hite Hide U, Catch, Hungry, All in My Head, ..., ki so jih
ponesli v vrhove lestvic širom sveta.
Diskografija:
- Resist (2001)
- Kokopelli (2003)

A Biography 2007
Once in a while, a band comes along that doesn’t
just ignore the rule book, but rewrites it. Since forming in the late 90’s,
Kosheen have
proved that success doesn’t have to come
on someone else’s terms. Fusing the plaintive, potent vocals of singer Sian
Evans with the darkly
intimate electronica of Darren Decoder and
Markee Substance, Kosheen create songs where the sounds tell the story as much
as the lyrics
while the boundaries of genres are blurred
and challenged.
The foundations of this revolution were
laid years earlier when music changed the lives of all three of the band
members. Darren Decoder - aka
Darren Beale - played and wrote music for
years in various punk bands at school in Weston-Super-Mare, always recording
their efforts and so
developing a simultaneous interest in the
production side. When he went to university in 1989, though, he realised
something was missing.
“I was getting bored of the sound of the
guitar,” he remembers. “I was putting it through so many effects and pedals
that it wasn’t even sounding like
a guitar any more anyway.”
His salvation came in the form of a young
Geoff Barrow, future founder of Portishead. “When I met Geoff, he introduced me
more to the
electronic side of music. What he showed
me with samplers and stuff just blew me away! I’d never seen that before.”
Spellbound, Darren sold his guitar, bought
an Atari and a sampler and never looked back. “That was at the same time that
the whole rave scene
was going off which had a big impact on me
as well. I loved Orbital and 808 State, so I started writing lots of
electronica and got a deal really
early. Then I used to write hardcore stuff
for raves and then did some really ambient drum n’ bass like LTJ Bukem before I
started Djing at raves
and parties with Markee in Bristol. I followed
the whole path of electronica really.”
Together, Darren and former Glaswegian
indie kid Markee Substance created the seminal Ruffneck Ting club nights around
Bristol and the South West.
Raised on The Smiths, Echo and The
Bunnymen and, later, Stone Roses and Happy Mondays, Markee became instrumental
in the burgeoning
drum n’ bass scene. “It literally was a few people in a pub with
a couple of decks. It’s been over ten years since that pub gig!”
The pair soon got to know Sian Evans. Brought up in a small town in South Wales,
Sian had left home at 16 and moved to Cardiff to escape,
living in squats and friends’ houses while
working several jobs at once and travelling to parties and festivals all over
the country. At the height
of the rave scene, in 1991, she gave birth
to her son, Yves, and was forced to reassess her priorities. For the next four
years, Sian and her son
split their time between environmental
protests like Newbury and working at summer festivals. It was all she needed to
give her a taste for living
outdoors and so in 1996, Sian moved into a
tepee on a traveller’s site in the Brechfa forest for nine months.
“I just thought it looked like a lovely
way to live,” she says, “and I wanted to give him the freedom to run around and
have some amazing memories.”
At night, after Yves went to bed, Sian
passed the time by writing songs. Despite being brought up writing poetry and
listening to Welsh folk music and
Joni Mitchell, it was the first time Sian
had felt moved to create music.
“I used to keep diaries as a kid and turn
them into poems and I’ve found that writing is better than talking sometimes.
It’s always been a great way to
getting things off my chest.“
Realising her future lay with these songs
-in fact, most of them went on to form the tracks on Kosheen’s debut album,
‘Resist’ - she soon moved back to
Bristol to find someone to play them with. Enter Darren and
Markee.
“I hadn’t even taken my coat off in the
studio and I was writing songs with them, though I was quite nervous to begin
with. Until I was with Kosheen,
I didn’t think of myself as a songwriter.
I knew I could sing but I didn’t have a lot of faith in my writing. I just
thought it was something I did for me.
I was told once when I was working with my
first band in Cardiff when I was 15 that I was just a singer and I should stand
in the background and
wiggle my arse. That scarred me for long
time actually. With Kosheen, I’d sing stuff to Markee and he’d say it was
beautiful.”
As a trio, the band learned they could
combine their respective loves of rock, hip-hop, jazz, drum n’ bass and folk
and still create songs
with a heart. “I love songs!“ Sian states simply. “Songs
that start, have a middle, and end. People were expecting little loops and
quirky vocals
and they got full songs. You can put too
much in a track. You can have a busy vocal, or you can have a busy track, but
if you put two together it’s just noise to me.”
The world agreed they were something
special. Kosheen’s compelling, anthemic track ‘Hide U’ reached number 6 in the
UK, while ‘Catch’ hit number
15 and ‘Hungry’ reached number 13. The
accompanying album, ‘Resist’, went on to reach number 8 in the UK and made the
top 30 in Australia,
The Netherlands, Belgium and Greece. It
has since sold half a million copies worldwide.
“I remember being in Vienna waiting to
hear how our album had done,” begins Sian. “We really wanted it to go well. The
boys came into the dressing
room and told me to guess the position. I
said 15. They said no, lower. And I went oh no.. 20? And they were going, no!
Lower the other way! It went
in at number 9 and I think I burst into
tears! I couldn’t believe it.”
“I nearly fell over,” Darren adds. “It was
so weird.”
‘Hide U’ won ‘Best Remix’ at the Muzik
Dance Awards and Record of The Year at the Dancestar USA Awards in Miami.
“It wasn’t an overnight thing,” Markee
explains. “Word of mouth played a massive part and I have this theory that
people actually do appreciate quality things.
We’ve always said that, at the end of the
day, if you put your heart into your music, if you’re feeling it, then you’ve
got a chance that someone else will feel it too.”
Ignoring the accepted protocol that
dictates ‘dance’ acts don’t play live, Kosheen then set off on tour. With their debut album (now Platinum–selling)
‘Resist’ this equated to an impressive 141
shows in 33 countries to an audience of over a million.
“I cut my teeth on pub gigs in Wales,”
Sian says, “so I really wanted to get the music of Kosheen represented live.
The songs really translated because they’re
very melodic. A lot of them were written
on the guitar and we can actually do most of them unplugged too. When you strip
a song down like that and it still works,
you
know it’s a good song. A lot of people are surprised when they go into the gig
and see a full band set up with a drum kit and everything. But no one’s been
disappointed.”
In fact, crowds of up to 17,000 have since
seen the band play in Europe, Australia, South Africa, Asia, even America where
fans who had only heard Kosheen
via Napster knew all the lyrics before
anything had ever officially been played there. The LA Times went so far as to
proclaim the band one of four hot new
electronica acts to watch for. In summer
2001, Kosheen further cemented their reputation as a world-class live act by
performing to a 20,000-strong crowd
in
Serbia, the first international band to do so since the trouble in the Balkans.
“On the plane on the way over there we were
all looking at each other going why the fuck are we going to Yugoslavia?”
Markee grins. “We didn’t have a clue
what to expect. And suddenly there was
20,000 people all singing “Catch” back at us. Me and Sian just looked at each
other on stage as if to say, fucking hell!
What’s going on?!”
Inevitably while on tour, Kosheen turned
their attention to their second album. Enthused by the incredible reception
they had received live, they began writing songs
with that in mind, tracks they knew would
sound great on stage. The resulting record - named ‘Kokopelli’ after the North
American Indian symbol of fertility,
individuality and music - was a hypnotic,
intimate collection of songs from the soul. It became Kosheen’s highest UK
charting LP, going in at number 6 and helped
earn them their second Brit Award nomination.
Darren said: “I think it’s harder and
darker than the last album, and a lot more personal too. There are more guitars
in there too but it’s not your standard rock album.
We’ve taken elements of rock and all
different types of music, which we enjoy and fused it all together to come up
with something slightly different. I don’t ever
want people to expect anything from us.”
Crucially, while the music sounded darker
and more apocalyptic, Sian’s lyrics grew more personal, as she revealed herself
track by track. While the bleak ‘Recovery’
told of a feeling of not fitting in,
coupled with excess of drugs or alcohol, ’All In My Head’, the first single
released from “Kokopelli” and going straight into the chart
at number 7, was the ultimate long
distance love song, inspired by a phone conversation between Sian and her own
partner, describing the lover who may be physically
distant but can always be present in your
mind.
After Kokopelli went Gold in the UK,
Kosheen left BMG in the midst of the SONY BMG merger, signed to Universal
Germany (UDD), and returned to the studio,
with a new drive and vision and worked on
their new (third) album, “DAMAGE” for the next two years. Sonically referencing
both the electronica of "Resist"
(their debut LP) and the creativity and
darkness of "Kokopelli" (their second), with "Damage",
Kosheen have created their 'biggest' and most beautiful record to date.
Along with writing, recording and
producing new tracks, Kosheen have been performing around the world, including
first visits to China, Taiwan and the Middle East.
They returned to Russia and Australia and
undertook more than the occasional festival around Europe including Germany,
Holland, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland,
Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, Romania,
Serbia, Latvia and Estonia.
Kosheen have transferred the studio sound
to the stage, with a five- piece live band and have introduced visuals into
their live show illustrating urban life
and 'Damage' and will be touring Europe
and UK in 2007.
New tracks from “Damage”, “Guilty” and
“Overkill”, have been previewed at all the majo UK and European Festivals and
already have the audience singing-along to them.
Third studio album ‘Damage’ released on September 10
First single, ‘Overkill’, set for release August 27

Večer bluesa in blues-rocka v priredbah
EMŠO BLUES BANDA.
60-ta in 70-ta leta, inspirirana z
južnaškim ameriškim blues-rockom, ter blues standardi, ki so jih takrat
preigravale glasbene skupine v Angliji
in Ameriki, so vplivali na skupino
glasbenikov iz Emšo Blues Banda. Sedaj so sicer že v zrelih letih, in igrajo
skladbe iz svoje mladosti v svojih
priredbah in z žarom, kot da bi meli še
vedno 19 ali 20 let. Z njimi bo nastopil tudi gost na orglicah, g. Miro Božič
iz Idrije, trenutno slovenski orgličar št. 1.

Potem ko je Gušti leta 2002 zapustil
najbolj uspešno slovensko rock skupino Big Foot Mama, v kateri je začel plodno
glasbeno in avtorsko pot ter napisal
skladbe kot so Led s severa, Fenomen,
Tatoo, Črn tulipan, Garbage hip hop, Nisem več s tabo…je malokdo pričakoval tak
razplet dogodkov. Leta 2002 je
izdal ploščo Dolce Vita, na kateri je
sodelovalo lepo število zvenečih glasbenih gostov: Buda (Elvis Jackson),
Bajaga, Tomi Meglič (Siddharta), Aleš Hadalin,
Anđa Marić, Alya, Borut Marolt
(Prisluhnimo tišini)… med gosti pa je bila tudi Polona Kasal, takrat novo ime
na domači glasbeni sceni. S Polono sta sodelovanje
nadaljevala na koncertnih nastopih, nato
pa sta se odločila za skupno ploščo.
Album “GP” je izšel januarja 2005 ter
takoj skočil na drugo mesto lestvice Slo Top 30, na kateri se je obdržal dalj
časa. GP je poleg Guštija (kitara in vokal) in Polone (vokal)
sestavljen iz talentiranih in priznanih glasbenikov
: Peter Dekleva (kitara), Tony Montana (bas), Andrej Zavašnik (bobni) in Jerc
Jurc (klaviature). V zadnjih dveh letih je za
njimi več uspešnih nastopov, s katerimi so
dokazali, da so pop in rock nadgradili in ponesli v nove dimenzije. Nastopi se
večkrat sprevržejo v zabave urbanega groova.
Album ima svež urbani zvok in je vsekakor
presežek slovenskega popa. Gušti ponovno dokazuje svojo avtorsko širino, Polona
pa s svojim glasom daje skladbam na
albumu barvo in okus neskončnih pokrajin
in mestnega vrveža. Poleg hitov kot so Trip, D Dan, Makova polja, Vedno zame,
Mine leto, se šestčlanski bend odlično znajde
tudi v novi preobleki manj izpostavljene
Guštijeve pesmi »Vibracija«, ki jo je posnel še z BFM. Uspešnima videospotoma z
novega albuma »Makova polja« in »D dan«, ki
se predvajata na številnih TV postajah,
obenem sta oba v rednem programu tudi na MTV Adria, se je jeseni pridružil še
video za pesem »Moje sanje« in pred kratkim četri
single za pesem »Trip«. Slednji je, kot
predhodnji single, pristal na prvem mestu Stop Pops20 in tudi na najvišjih
mestih drugih lestvic«. Gušti & Polona sta z ekipo posnela
tudi izjemen živi nastop v sodelovanju z
MTV Adria in bila tako prva, ki sta se predstavila znotraj oddaje MTV live na
području regije.
Tako v glasbi, kot v videospotih in
celovitem pristopu je moč začutiti, da je poznornost posvečena vsem aspektom
glasbene vsebine in dizajna.
Urbani pop kot ga še niste okusili! Brez
dvoma najboljše, kar vam lahko v pop glasbi ponudimo iz Slovenije!
