Album
description
...................................................................................................
On his long awaited debut album "Perdu" the Moroccan Rai singer
Kadero presents twelve distinctive compositions. With his
inexhaustible creativity he achieves to unfold the entire magic
of raї and develops it into an electrifying mix of afro, jazz,
reggae and European pop.
World Music label Atlas Music pro produced Kadero's first album
and was able to win fantastic musicians for the studio
recordings who incredibly enriched the album with their
commitment and artistic inspiration.
After its release "Perdu" gained great recognition in Austria.
Soon after German radio stations took the Spanish-Arabic
pop-song "Viena" and the groovy hit "Double face"
in rotation. Eventually, Kadero's danceable songs got airplay
across Europe - from Madrid to Moscow. The album was nominated
for the “Price of the German Record Critics”
and elected as “CD of the week” on the national Swiss radio
station DRS.
Press Quotes
...................................................................................................
Folker!: "This takes
off. Takes off with high speed! [...] All tracks are original
compositions and all of them are special. A funk-rai speeds like
the entry lane of Frankfurt, an oriental-reggae creates
speculations that Jamaica is situated in North Africa, then a
chanson-like song with Spanish rhythm and likewise guitar
sounds, or a pop-song has a force of attraction like Khaled’s
greatest hits (which were regularly not written by him). Some
songs have a strong Egyptian influence. Besides Joe Zawinul -
bass player Linley Marthe, it is Otto Lechner on the accordion
and guitarist Karl Ritter who present an outstanding
performance, but it is not fair to point them out, because all
of the musicians are brilliant. A clever arrangement, high
speed, fantastic groove, not overloaded – this is how you do it,
if you want to do it correctly." (translation from German)
Falter:
"Long awaited, it is finally out: the first album of the
Moroccan raї singer Kadero who has provided Vienna’s music scene
with exceptional and stirring sounds during the last years.
[…] Musicians such as Karl Ritter on the guitar,
Zawinul-bass player Linley Marthe and accordion virtuoso Otto
Lechner, his biggest supporter in Vienna, weave a distinctive
and groovy sound carpet on which Kadero's hypnotising voice
takes off in the direction of Africa. Sounds great and the live
performance speeds like the fire brigade."
(translation
from German)
Freizeit-Kurier: "Raї
is groovy North-African power-pop, a sudorific mix of
traditional shepherd music, jazz, soul and rock. Internationally
known names are Khaled – yes, the one with Aisha, Cheb Mami and
Faudel who captured Europe starting from France. And now there
is another one – Kadero who lives in Vienna and whose CD is the
central point for me since last week. Kadero sings easily in one
champions-league with Khaled. His 12 songs are fantastic, almost
magic. They awake a desire for palm trees, sun shine, beach and
colourful bazaars, street-cafes, and hot evenings and parties
where nobody can sit still.”
