pa kuru skaņdarbi nonāk uz manā lapā.
Tātad, jau otro gadu esmu iekritis vācu deep
house valgos. Vispār pasaulē dīdžeju ir varbūt
ne miljoni, bet daudzi, daudzi tūkstoši. Klubu
mūzikas žanru un novirzienu ir desmitiem. Starp
visiem tiem vācu deep house ir tā mūzika, kas mani
uzrunā tieši. Mūzika, tāpat kā jebkura māksla attīstās,
meklē jaunus izteiksmes veidus, paņēmienus un trikus,
lai iekarotu tās lietotāju sirdis. Iekarotajām sirdīm, pasākumu
apmeklējumam un līdz ar to arī pašu autoru popularitātei stingri
seko statistika. Talantīgākos es droši nosauktu par mūsdienu Mocartiem.
Un stāvot apakšā visai šai iemīļotās mūzikas "niagārai", ik pa brīdim kāds
vārdos nenosaucams impulss - ritms, frāze vai skaņa iesmeldz sirdī. Varbūt
tas saistīts ar dzīves laikā pārdzīvoto, varbūt ar kādu mūzikas instrumentu,
ko sen atpakaļ nācies apgūt. Bet varbūt ar dvēseles stāvokli konkrētā
brīdī. Gadās, ka fragments, kurš iekļauts viena dīdžeja kompilācijā,
no manis tiek novērtēts tikai pēc laika un pavisam cita autora
priekšnesumā. Ā, bet ir tomēr daži raksturlielumi tai
"patikšanai": - Skaņdarbs nedrīkst būt "sauss", bez
bīta kaut kur tajā jābūt melodijai vai melodijas
atblāzmai. Skaņdarbam ir "jāripo" vai "jāveļas".
Tā ir tāda nedefinējama sajūta, ka skaņas un ritms
rit, sauc uz priekšu. Vienkāršotam piemēram, - ja bungas
4/4 taktsmērā sit četras reizes, tad mūzika nerit, bremzē. Bet,
ja uz katru bungu sitienu seko cita sitamā instrumenta atsitiens,
tad ir cerība, ka mūzika "aizies". Kas zaļumballē tautai iet pie sirds?
Ne jau maršs - viens, div',trīs, četr'. Bet gan - um-pā, um-pā,
u-pam-pam-pā :) Un obligāts nosacījums manā izpratnē,
ka tam visam kopā jābūt minorīgam jeb
skumjam.
Tas viss ir neparasti interesants process, bet
"visšausmīgākā" ir doma vai jautājums: - Vai pēc skaņu
miksēšanas izpētes un attiecīgas programmatūras apgūšanas būtu
Twenty-nine-year-old Cesar Merveille recipe for great music involves specialist ingredients. The rapidly rising producer mixes the traditional dance influences of house and minimal techno with his love of art, jazz, wine, and the occasional fishing trip in Brittany. The result is sounds you won’t hear anywhere else. His superb productions include Chocopop Jazz (Remake Music) and Descarga (Cadenza), which has been a staple of Luciano’s recent sets. He also deploys his deft touch on the decks at clubs across Europe, including dates in France, the Netherlands, Italy, England and Ireland.
Seasoning these ingredients is a valuable boyhood lesson involving bread. “I was giving my parents some trouble,” Cesar explains. “So they made me work in a bakery in the countryside for a week. It was a hell. I had to get up at 4AM and ride my bike there. But it taught me I have to work hard for what I want.”
The road to fulfilling his creative ambitions took Cesar from his native Paris to London, where he took did a degree in graphic and media design. Music – a constant companion since he first picked out Hey Jude on the piano at age seven – remained a much-loved hobby. After university Cesar founded his own graphic design company, Hijackstudio but was increasingly drawn to making records. After early releases on the illustrious Safari Electronique label he hit a new high with Chocopop Jazz – “that’s when I knew I wanted to do this full time,” he says.
Cesar made the decision to put the very successful Hijackstudio on hold and devote himself 100% to music. The results of his decision are clear to see: a burst of creativity that fuelled Descarga and promises a string of exciting releases including another solo project on Cadenza and a collaboration with Ryan Crosson due out on Circus Records. His increasingly busy tour schedule takes in some of the hottest clubs in the UK and the continent, including Cable and T-Bar (London), Kamakama (Pisa) and the Warehouse (Manchester). “Being able to make music full time is my biggest achievement so far,” says Cesar. But with his talent and drive it is only the beginning. There are even bigger achievements to come.

Starp citu, merveille (fr.) = brīnums ...
