Recordlabels are like some happy family. Claptrap or reality?

Well, lots depends on what label we’re talking about but in the case of Str8Line Records it seems like a fairytale that has been ongoing for something like a decade. Even if labelboss Paul Fiction has recently moved to Brussels, it still seems like a club of French bands and among them you find lots of cultbands, for example: Babel 17, Charles De Goal, Guerre Froide, Hide & Seek, Jacquy Bitch, Opera Multi Steel and Little Nemo.

The nice thing about this Movement-series is that all participating bands (there are 26 in total) have coverd a track by one of their collegues and sometimes you get pretty bizarre (but nontheless interesting) results. For instance you have Buzz who are giving a new dimension to “Calcutta” by The Names while those Belgian post-punklegends in turn cover “1984” by Buzz.

From time to time you hear versions which are kind of unrecognisable. Norma Loy who do “Summer in bed” by Little Nemo for instance and we could go on and on.

On such varied double-cd, everyone will have their own favourites but Str8Line still understand that music has to have a healthy dose of adventure and that’s something you get here. A very nice album to both discover and take you back in time.

Die platenlabeltjes die zichgedragen als één grote familie, is dat nu een fabeltje of niet? Het zal er wel vanaf hangen bij welk label je terecht komt maar bij Str8Line gaat het er al jaren knusjes aan toe. Bezieler Paul Fiction mag zich dan wel de laatste tijd hebben geresideerd in Brussel toch blijft deze verzamelaar grotendeels een Frans onderonsje waar heel wat cultgroepen (Babel 17, Charles De Goal, Guerre Froide, Hide & Seek, Jacquy Bitch, Opera Multi Steel of Little Nemo) terug te vinden zijn.

Het leuke aan deze Movement-reeks is dat alle deelnemende groepen (en dat zijn er 26 in totaal) de taak hebben om een nummer van hun collega’s te coveren. Dit levert soms bizarre resultaten op die weliswaar zeer de moeite zijn. Zo waagt Buzz zich bijvoorbeeld aan “Calcutta” aan The Names en is het eindresultaat meer dan zomaar een cover of hernemen The Names op hun beurt “1984” van Buzz.

Soms krijg je nummers in een bijna onherkenbare versie (Norma Loy die bijvoorbeeld “Summer in bed” van Little Nemo covert) en zo kunnen we wel een tijdje blijven doorgaan.

Op zo’n gevarieerde dubbelcd zal iedereen wel zijn favorieten hebben maar bij Str8 Line hebben ze perfect begrepen dat muziek in de eerste plaats zin voor avontuur moet bezitten en dat is meer dan het geval bij deze hier.
