about

Blue Marge 1012

[EN] Throughout his career, Doug Hammond has not only gone with the times; he has often been ahead of them. From the wonderful "For Our Souls" and "Be You," featuring Hammond on the African thumb piano, to the swinging, evocative duo and trio compositions with Stéphane Payen (alto sax) and Reggie Washington (e-bass), "New Beginning" demonstrates the wide breadth of his creativity and distinctive sound. Immersed in the African-American music and spoken word traditions, Hammond reinterprets his seminal songs such as "Brother Ty," "Vanessa's Dance," and "Friends," embellishing them solely with his nuanced drums and bass-timbered voice to provide wholly new dimensions. Hammond's emotional depth as a poet and skill as a word crafter are revealed in "Insight." "Spankin' It" sounds as fresh and grooving as the day it was written. And his crisp drum solos are nothing less than stunning! Doug Hammond continues to inspire listeners and audiences all over the world while introducing new generations to his artistry. May "New Beginning" prove to be just that. Doug Hammond doesn't need to reinvent himself. He is here. And he is real.

[FR] Tout au long de sa carrière, Doug Hammond n'a pas seulement suivi les tendances ; il les a souvent devancées. Du magnifique "For Our Souls" et "Be You," mettant en vedette Hammond au piano à pouces africain, aux compositions en duo et en trio à la fois entraînantes et évocatrices avec Stéphane Payen (saxophone alto) et Reggie Washington (contrebasse), "New Beginning" démontre l'ampleur de sa créativité et le son distinctif qui le caractérise. Plongé dans les traditions musicales afro-américaines et la poésie parlée, Hammond réinterprète ses chansons phares telles que "Brother Ty," "Vanessa's Dance," et "Friends," les embellissant uniquement avec ses percussions nuancées et sa voix teintée de basse pour offrir des dimensions entièrement nouvelles. La profondeur émotionnelle de Hammond en tant que poète et son talent pour jouer avec les mots sont mis en lumière dans "Insight." "Spankin' It" sonne aussi frais et groovy que le jour où il a été écrit. Et ses solos de batterie nets ne sont rien de moins que stupéfiants ! Doug Hammond continue d'inspirer les auditeurs et les publics du monde entier tout en initiant de nouvelles générations à son art. Que "New Beginning" se révèle être exactement cela. Doug Hammond n'a pas besoin de se réinventer. Il est là. Et il est authentique.
