Cortex: Troupeau Bleu - 50th Anniversary Edition (180g) Vinyl LP
Digger's holy grail of French jazz funk! Cortex's Troupeau Bleu is an obscure piece of jazz fusion sounds that fetches serious coinage on the secondary market. It's samples have shown up on releases by everyone from DJ Cam and MF Doom ("One Beer") to Fat Joe and Rick Ross. Once you drop the needle on the record it's easy to see why. Smooth and funky straight out of the gate, Cortex waste no time in setting the mood. Deep grooves give way to mellow female vocals; upright bass leads the way for lyrical piano improvisations. Synth sounds pop up here and there, adding a futuristic air to the recordings. Recommended.
