Kate Bush's The Red Shoes (EMI)This is Kate Bush's seventh album, released in 1997, her last one before returning to record store shelves with Aerial in 2005. The Red Shoes is a very direct album, caught somewhere between world music and the higher artful early 90's art-pop records like Roger Water's Radio KAOS. It's direct in the way that it's actually played and not as studio as her previous work. The line-up contributing to it is extensive (Jeff Beck, Prince, Stuart Elliott, Eric Clapton to name a few), yet the record remained a true Bush affair.
Justice's Self-titled (Ed Banger)Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay's project Justice fits real well with what I'm up to at the moment. Yes a bit late getting into these guys but I've been dancing while painting and it's their fault. This record is great. Energetic, loud, colourful and giving. If you don't have it, go and get it. I discovered them through their music videos which you can find here: Stress / D.A.N.C.E / DVNO.
