Pierre Selos - Réveille toi Lhomme Et La Ville

Review by Yedi Nurwali

Pierre Selos' latest album, Réveille toi Lhomme Et La Ville, is a captivating musical journey that seamlessly blends elements of jazz, funk, and world music. The album's title, which translates to "Wake Up Man and the City," sets the tone for the socially conscious themes explored throughout the album.

Selos' virtuosic saxophone playing takes center stage on many of the tracks, while the rest of his band provides a tight, groove-heavy backdrop for his improvisations. The album's opening track, "Réveille Toi," sets the tone with its urgent, driving rhythm and Selos' soaring saxophone lines.

Other standout tracks include "La Ville," which features a hypnotic bassline and a lively, syncopated rhythm, and "L'Homme," which features a soulful vocal performance from Selos and a haunting, atmospheric arrangement.
