”...a range encompassing everything from jazz to neo-soul." Entering Femi's debut EP, Sweet Water Soul, is like getting into a warm, sensual pool of sounds and vibes. Sometimes experimantal but never irritating, a smooth candlelight sensation, romantic and relaxing. Combine these vibes with Femi's jazzy, gracious vocals and the result is a treasure of original songs equally danceable and reverent. Title track, Sweet Water opens it up as a passionate poetic track backed by percussion, flute and Femi's crystal clear voice. Imported serves as a real highlight, a melancholic, dreamy cut, introduced with some beautiful guitar work and containing a great, addictive baseline and some awesome flute 'soloing'. The mood here even reminds me a bit of one of my all time favourite female vocalists Sade ... sensual, downtempo grooves, composed with different sound elements that fit together perfectly. Like a jigsaw, Imported fluently rolls over in Crush. More feel good vibes, perfect for a relaxing evening after a hard days work. A glass of the bubbly, candles and your baby by your side ... The ideal combination with Femi taking care of the background sounds. Mostly Femi's music is described as neo-soul / neo-funk, but Sweet Water Soul goes much deeper. Tatters of raggae and latin in If I Knew and cool jazz (evolving into soothing soul) in I want You. What we have here is a superb compilation of styles and sounds, brilliantly glued together into some fantastic, breezy music. Poetic, sexy and a perfect CD to dream away, leaving all troubles behind and letting them flow away in the sweet water of Femi's soul. And with the first leaves colouring this fall, I'll be listening a lot during those rainy, dark evenings. Certainly recommended. http://www.jazzandsoul.eu/femireview.htm （alt. link http://www.threcords.com/?product=20）她的聲音富含生命氣息雖然這張2008年9月發行的是EP 六首歌曲首首充滿不同曲風張力運用了許多類爵士樂器最出色的我認為是〈Pages〉這首舒緩之歌 http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=a2wIpxTvt_U MySpace http://www.myspace.com/femi （置頂這篇有首歌可以下載 http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.ListAll&friendID=4786180）官方網站 http://femimusic.com/ 部落格 http://femistar.blogspot.com/ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.163.72.179
