The Stereolab co-founder plays super Sunday pop music that knows no end to its beauty.
It’s a day of celebration when Lætitia Sadier releases a new album. About time, her last solo record was seven years ago. The singer and co-founder of Stereolab has left a clear mark on pop music, and when she performs solo with a choir and tried-and-tested band members, as she does here, it is almost 100% certain that continuations of this super Sunday music characterized by floating sounds and soft pop harmonies will emerge.
Songs and sounds that know no end to beauty and combine the cosmic with the smallest private eruptions. If you like, you can also identify in the new songs the chaos and turbulence of these depressed days in terms of world politics, but the chanteuse with the warming, cool voice, with the friendly support of the Gnostics, sends us music with great healing power (“Who + What”).
A program as complex as it is attractive, which uses organ, guitar, bass, trombone, synthesizer, vibraphone and zither and is presented in two languages (English and French). The pre-single “Une Autre Attente” has what it takes to become a soft-funk classic. With ROOTING FOR LOVE, Sadier transforms her “Inner Smile” into song and sound. Thank you very much, Lætitia!
