Ein Powell und Pressburger-Musikfilm, den ich noch nicht kannte! Es gibt Gründe dafür, daß er nicht gar so bekannt ist. Oh, Rosalinda!!, eine modernisiserte Fassung der allseits beliebten Operette Die Fledermaus (der deutsche Titel lautet sinnigerweise Fledermaus ‘55) im geteilten Nachkriegs-Wien spielt zwar in schönster unrealistischer Hein-Heckroth-Ausstattung (die allerdings jetzt auch nicht so überzeugend als das aufgeteilte Wien rüberkommt wie beispielsweise das echte Wien in The Third Man), Anton Walbrook ist bewährt charmant, Mel Ferrer hübsch und forsch, Anneliese Rothenberger gibt sich die Ehre, all die schönen Kunstzutaten, und vieles ist wirklich sehr niedlich. Es ist aber insofern etwas unbefriedigend, als Komödie ihnen einfach nicht recht zu liegen scheint. Braucht aber möglicherweise auch eine zweite Sichtung, jetzt wo ich weiß, worauf ich mich eingelassen habe, und mit Champagner.

Michael Douglas stars as Robert Wakefield, a state Supreme Court judge newly appointed as the nation’s new drug Czar. While he plays political games in Washington, he’s becomes completely disconnected from his family and oblivious to his…

Next Evidence - "Dune"
Stockholm Mix Sessions 2 by Jesper Dahlbäck
Song released in 1999. Mix released in 2000.
Deep House
It's kinda strange how you can't find a proper bio about this French deep house duo anywhere. You'd think that when an enormous major label like Capitol/EMI puts out someone's album, it'd help to generate some kind of fanfare for the artist, but it doesn't really appear to have done so in the case of Next Evidence; at least not to the point where some professional music writer publishes a few sentences online about what the duo does and where they're from. All we really have to go on here is a poorly written, unverified thing from some last.fm user. Crazy.
But allow me to piece together a narrative here that differs slightly from that last.fm entry. Next Evidence was made up of Maxime Cohen and Michael Tordjman. In '97, while they were both in their mid-20s, the pair put out their debut record, and in '98, they started their own small record label, Basic Recordings, which ended up releasing material from a handful of house talents, including Julien Jabre and Dennis Ferrer.
The following year, with five releases solidly under their belt as a duo, Next Evidence put out an EP called Sands on the Paris-based Versatile Records. And it's on that little EP that you'll find a deep house banger of theirs called "Dune."
Now, what appears to have sonically set Next Evidence apart from most of their fellow deep house peers is that they had a special affinity for African percussion. While most deep house makers were just using standard drum machines or software to construct their backbeats, these guys were on some different shit, making sure that just the basest parts of their own productions were unique enough to catch and then captivate one's ear. And that approach, when it comes to just the music itself, will definitely give you a leg up on your competition, because at jump, when all you've really introduced is your drums, you're already putting out something that doesn't sound like most of what else is out there, and your tune’s barely even gotten started yet! And that's not to say that others weren't also using African percussion in their deep house at the time, but it definitely wasn't nearly as commonplace as other methods of crafting a backbeat.
So, next, you add some space-dubby synth-work to the track, and then by making some slight alterations here and there, you can just coast on that combo for as long as you'd like and you'll still have a mighty fine track, right? Well, yeah, you could do that, but Next Evidence had other ideas, because just as you really start to sink yourself into this groove for the long haul, they decide to unexpectedly seep in some fantastically sex-wet jazz sax, courtesy of some French dude named Denis Guivarc'h, who'd apparently been lending his talents to records for years before this one and still does to this day. He's doesn't appear to have ever released anything on his own, but you can hear his exploits on a sizeable chunk of releases that have been coming out since the early 90s.
And then after Guivarc'h finishes his part, a new top layer of percussion suddenly arrives, courtesy of a guy named Nicolas Krassilchik, who provides an awesome solo on timbales, further enhancing this experience even more. According to Discogs, this was only Krassilchik's second-ever appearance on wax, but it sure as shit doesn't sound like it, because his contribution here is simply electric. And Krassilchik is another guy who's never released anything on his own either, although he was a member of a group called 26 Pinel, who ended up putting out a couple albums in the mid-2000s.
This fully-packed track is amazing. Like, I would've totally dug it if it was just only made up of those drums and synths; it was that good already. But then Cohen and Tordjman decide to bring in those back-to-back sax and timbales solos, and the song just ascends to another plane 😌.
What a superb tune from this duo who you can barely find anything about online, even though they've had a major label album release!

Benicio De Toro in Traffic (Steven Soderbergh, 2000)
Cast: Benicio Del Toro, Jacob Vargas, Tomas Milian, Michael Douglas, Luis Guzmán, Don Cheadle, Miguel Ferrer, Topher Grace, Erika Christensen, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Albert Finney, Dennis Quaid, Peter Riegert, Amy Irving, Benjamin Bratt, Viola Davis. Screenplay: Stephen Gaghan, based on a miniseries by Simon Moore. Cinematography: Steven Soderbergh. Production design: Philip Messina. Film editing: Stephen Mirrione. Music: Cliff Martinez.
Traffic hasn't held up as well as it might have over the past 23 years, and one reason for that is a bit ironic: The movie was based on a British miniseries, and since the film's debut its central theme, the paralysis of politicians and police in trying to stop the drug trade, and its multiple-track storytelling have been handled more brilliantly by an American miniseries, The Wire (2002-08). It's even possible that the film demonstrates the limits faced by movies as opposed to long-form television in handling stories of complexity and sweep. (Imagine, for example, Game of Thrones or Mad Men or Breaking Bad stuffed into the confines of a two-or-three-hour movie.) Traffic still holds your interest, of course, thanks to some brilliant performances, especially the Oscar-winning one by Benicio Del Toro, as well as the ones by Don Cheadle and Catherine Zeta-Jones. (It's also fun to spot Viola Davis making a solid impression in a tiny part as a social worker.) And Soderbergh's direction deservedly won the Oscar, along with Steven Gaghan's screenplay and Stephen Mirrione's film editing. I would, however, fault Gaghan for the sentimental and melodramatic resolution to the story centering on Michael Douglas as Robert Wakefield, the newly appointed czar of the War on Drugs: It stretches credulity to have Wakefield break down in the middle of his acceptance speech and abandon his post, and the scene in which Wakefield and his wife (Amy Irving) beamingly support their drug-addicted daughter (Erika Christensen) at a twelve-step-program meeting is pure schmaltz. The film also pulls its punches a bit where the wasteful War on Drugs crusade is concerned, even to the point of featuring cameos by real-life politicians William Weld (a Reagan-administration appointee who supervised the Drug Enforcement Administration) and Senators Barbara Boxer, Orrin Hatch, Chuck Grassley, and Harry Reid.
