ABOUT THIS VIDEO:
Acid jazz, an offshoot of the quintessentially British mod subculture, emerged at the crossroads of the 80s and 90s. The genre was launched by Eddie Piller, whose eponymous label signed an exciting array of bands including the Brand New Heavies, Corduroy and Jamiroquai. Meanwhile, his close friend Gilles Peterson launched the equally seductive label Talking Loud, representing bands such as Galliano, Urban Species and Incognito. Influenced greatly by jazz and funk, the latter group symbolizes the lasting impact of this innovative musical period on today's musical productions.
Performing at the Jazz à Vienne festival, Incognito quickly sets the show in motion. The London group are clearly backed by a wealth of experience, delivering an outstanding and meticulously-arranged set from the stage of the ancient Roman theater. This is particularly evidenced in the introduction, a track built on a French refrain, as well as in the following song, carried by Nathalie Duncan’s impressive timbre, and in the numerous compositions relayed by an impeccable brass section. An alternative to 70s Afro-American fusion, Incognito seamlessly integrates pop melodies and a healthy dose of soul into its repertoire. The final track is a case in point, an incredible sequence whose vocals compete in audacity and sophistication.
