About Me |
|
El Calife's story began with a trip on the Mediterranean sea , a father who took the boat and left Algeria... the vinyls that woke El Calife up a bit later had the scents of a country he has not known but that already belonged of his memory. The South. A burning sun. A provencal breath on his mother’s side… the elements added to each other as if to mark the artist’s nature : deeply mediterranean . Drummer by training, the rythms gave El Calife the opportunity to connect his East influences with his strong taste for Soul music, such as Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield and among others Barry White... This results in long peaceful spans characterised by authentic arab tones A sort of invitation for a mint tea. And when the wind rises, when passions burst out, twisted by filters, an energetic and enchanting electronic pump settles in. This is what El Calife’s music sounds like, a bit like him , made out of contrasts and elegance. El Calife Live London, Ibiza, Montpellier, Bordeaux, Alberville, La Plagne, Morzine, Royan, Sete, Biscarosse, Mediterraneans meetings, Marseille, festival "les nuits de Gignac", festival "les nuits d’ô" in Montpellier… Select at "Printemps de Bourges Languedoc Roussillon 2004" hearings. Contact El Calife Contact programmation : Christel BUFFARD 06.60.90.85.65 L'histoire d'El Calife commence par un voyage sur la méditerranée, un père qui prend le bateau et quitte l'Algérie. Les vinyles qui réveillent El Calife des années plus tard auront les senteurs d'un pays qu'il n'a pas connu mais qui font déja partie de sa mémoire. Le Sud, Soleil de plomb. Un souffle provençal coté maternel. Les élèments s'ajoutent comme pour marquer le caractère de l'artiste: profondèment méditerranéen. Batteur de formation, les rythmes vont donner à El Calife l'occasion de faire le lien entre son Orient et le gout prononcé qu'il a pour la Soul, celle de Marvin Gaye, Curtis Mayfield et autres Barry White... Comme une invitation au thé à la menthe, sa musique donne de longues étendues apaisantes marquées de sonorités authentiquement arabes. Et quand le vent se lève, que les passions se déchainent, tordues par les filtres, se met alors en place un pump électronique envoutant. Ainsi va la musique d'El Calife, un peu comme lui, toute de contrastes et d'élégance. El Calife Live Londres, Ibiza, Montpellier, Bordeaux, Alberville, La Plagne, Morzine, Royan, Sète, Biscarosse, rencontres Meditérranéennes, marseille, festival "les nuits de gignac", festival "les nuits d’ô" a montpellier… Sélectionné aux auditions du Printemps de Bourges Languedoc Roussillon 2004.
