Details: Product Description Bori, Edgar Amazon.ca Edgar Bori changes air in his fourth album. Exit the old accomplices: the faceless singer now combines the roles of author, composer, performer, arranger and director. Suddenly, his dense and exploded universe, where the naivety of childhood had the beautiful role, where the serious reflections were made up with a fine poetry, is transformed. With Change of air, Bori is indeed interested in describing the urban reality rather crudely, offering a not very nuanced, even didactic look. The renewal is also at the rendezvous on the musical level: the singer has surrounded himself with a new team of musicians (Jean-François Groulx, Norman Lachapelle, Tony Albino) to try his hand at jazz, Brazilian rhythms and electronics. His warm and serious voice is more discreet, sometimes drowned in the musical flow, while his melodies go straight to the point. Fans of the enigmatic artist risk being destabilized by this turn. But as they listen, they will learn to discover another Bori, more vulnerable and perhaps more human, with his strengths ("Ce sont", "I hate you boss") and his weaknesses ("Vos papiers", "Les Teen"). -- Nicolas Houle
