The follow-up to 2015\u2019s\u00a0<em>World Of\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0is called <i>Slow Dance<\/i>. It arrives on\u00a0May 25 via\u00a0Heavenly Sweetness.<\/h3>\n<p>Max Guiguet was already interested in Jamaican music, but 20 years earlier, when he entered as an intern at Radio Nova (french radio) he discovered at the time an infinity of styles to go further into. For twenty years he will apply on exploring this genres.<\/p>\n<p>At nightfall, after long days working at the radio, Max takes on the identity of Blundetto, a<span class=\"s1\">\u00a0name that comes straight from a mafia series, a name who<\/span><span class=\"s1\">\u00a0started to live in 2005, through long nocturnal sessions to experiment between sampling and instruments. Playing guitar, keyboard, drums, percussions or bass. Sampling, composing, arranging, polishing for four years until in 2009, his name resonates on the turntables.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/M8Dswbnj_bc\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><em>Bad Bad Things<\/em> will be his first release. An album composed and directed in duo with Black Joy, his Rick Rubin without whom nothing happens or rather, who makes everything end up well. Budos Band, Shawn Lee, Hindi Zarha and Tommy Guerrero are the invited guests who come and put part of their personality in the tracks influenced by reggae, nostalgic soul or soundtracks.<\/span><span class=\"s1\">The musical complicity continues and builds the Blundetto style\u00a0: he comes back in 2012 with <em>Warm My Soul<\/em>. The aesthetics is less roots, machines are more present. The voices of Hugh Coltman, Aqeel and Courtney John, the brass of Akale Wube take their turn in the studio. Jamaica remains the anchor of an album that goes to Africa or to the low-riders boomin &#8216;systems of Los Angeles.\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s1\">The third round is played in 2015, still on the same basis and always with the decisive Blackjoy. No more jet-lag nor thousands of miles to cover, <em>World Of<\/em> will be recorded only with relatives: Etienne De La Sayette, Biga* Ranx or John Milk. A patchwork album, between funk, kabyle music, rock and, of course, reggae.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Based on this Kingston vibration, between roots and modernity, Blundetto new album\u00a0<em>Slow Dance <\/em>arrives\u00a0May 25\u00a0via Heavenly Sweetness. Above, listen to the LP\u2019s first single \u201cHave A Little Faith&#8221; featuring JamaIcan godfather Ken Boothe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11795\" src=\"https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Blundetto-Have-a-Little-Faith.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1140\" height=\"1140\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Blundetto-Have-a-Little-Faith.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Blundetto-Have-a-Little-Faith-759x759.jpg 759w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Blundetto-Have-a-Little-Faith-1010x1010.jpg 1010w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Blundetto-Have-a-Little-Faith-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Blundetto-Have-a-Little-Faith-661x661.jpg 661w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Blundetto-Have-a-Little-Faith-465x465.jpg 465w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Blundetto-Have-a-Little-Faith-375x375.jpg 375w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Blundetto-Have-a-Little-Faith-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Blundetto-Have-a-Little-Faith-85x85.jpg 85w, https:\/\/pan-african-music-production.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Blundetto-Have-a-Little-Faith-73x73.jpg 73w\" sizes=\"(min-width:1010px) 759px,100vw\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blundetto aka Max Guiguet have announced a new album.
