Meta – Cross Road at Le Baiser Sale

Poetic and dreamy, the music of this singer with an almost metaphysical aura unites body and mind, embodying this famous "Body and Soul" which remains the standard of a jazz ready to escape, freed from conventional frameworks. This is the power of Meta's message, a spirituality supported by a weightless ensemble, in perfect harmony with its aspirations: an exceptional quintet, accompanied by musicians who enrich its ultra-eclectic palette for the presentation of "Cross road", Meta's new opus, which is, for the author, composer, singer, percussionist, that of the turning point.Personal and intellectual turning point subtly evoked in the themes of the pieces, but also and above all, musical turning point, with a shift towards an even freer, "richer" style.This record is clearly in tune with the times. It gives the sensation of crossing Metaverses that never stop multiplying. All while keeping this thread, stretched with flexibility, which unfolds from title to title....

Poétique et rêveuse, la musique de ce chanteur à l'aura presque métaphysique réunit corps et esprit, incarnant ce célèbre "Body and Soul" qui reste l'étalon d'un jazz prêt à s'évader, affranchi des cadres conventionnels. Voilà toute la puissance du message de Meta, une spiritualité soutenue par un ensemble en apesanteur, en parfaite harmonie avec ses aspirations : un quintet exceptionnel, accompagné de musiciens qui enrichissent sa palette ultra éclectique pour la présentation de “Cross road”, le nouvel opus de Meta, qui est, pour l'auteur, compositeur, chanteur, percussionniste, celui du tournant.Tournant personnel et intellectuel subtilement évoqué dans les thèmes des morceaux, mais aussi et surtout, tournant musical, avec un glissement vers un style encore plus libre, plus "riche".Ce disque est clairement dans l’air du temps. Il donne la sensation de traverser des Metavers qui n’en finisse pas de se multiplier. Toute en gardant ce fil, tendu avec souplesse, qui se déroule de titres en titres.
