Matthieu Marthouret SPRINGBOK - Involutions (2022) [Hi-Res]

INVOLUTIONS is the result of a journey, a personal and collective reflection where some of the threads already there in leader Matthieu Marthouret's previous albums are to be found again: the fun of playing (Playground, 2010), optimism (Upbeats, 2012), the sense of the collective (Smalls Streams... Big Rivers, 2014) or the notion of contrast (Contrasts, 2016).
The music on this album is both deep and accessible, energetic and meditative, sweet and sour, modern and rooted in tradition.
These eleven compositions were conceived during the particularly harsh period of time we have just been through, whether it be on a personal or social level. They in turn evoke in uncertainty, revolt, recollection, hope, tolerance, but above all, our capacity for resilience and empathy which help us go forward and overcome trials and hardships.

The moods and atmospheres that emerge are reflections of thoses contrasts : sometimes bright or dark, melancholic or joyful, realistic or abstract: Involutions is a reflection of the artist's personality and the world that surrounds him.
