Details: Amazon.ca Here, M delivers a collection of instrumentals that have served as, could have served as, or will serve as the foundation for brand-new songs. That's all well and good, but what primarily gives Mathieu Chedid's compositions their charm and substance is his fresh, playful poetry, delivered in that voice that is recognizable among a thousand! The "M style" nonetheless shines through in the music of this peerless artist—half-clown, half-Hendrix, half-man, half-cat, half-trendy, half-minstrel—and Labo M ultimately allows us to pay closer attention to the singer's main partner: his music. Sometimes merely a sound illustration, other times a true interlocutor, the music—at times light, at others more serious or even agitated when the guitar distorts—always retains a strong funk spirit, M's fundamental vehicle for expressing his jovial and positive energy. Fans of the persona will be won over by the unveiling of this intimate side. Indeed, even on tracks that are entirely instrumental, they will surely hear imaginary lyrics resonating, which proves just how enormous the complicity between voice and music can be, especially for a singer-songwriter-musician gifted with such well-known charisma. --Luc Demont
