This is an awfully peacefull small town in Switzerland. At
least on the the face of it. For in the area of Neuchâtel
the pedal boats swing gently in time on the lake to the happy
beats of some good old friends musicians, jewellers and joyous.
For several years Cédric Vuille has been longing for
composing and playing tonal music filled with guitars and
enriched with clarinet, on inspired rhythms, particularly
those of gay - but not to hazy - reggae. Life is too short
to bother our heads. Among the Rayés, one doesn't live
on the same shore as a Godard. It rather takes after some
Jacques Demy without words, some talkative Jacques Tati or
even some poetic Fellini. The torments of life force us to
go to the main thing, to enjoy everyday life as we think to
what surrounds us : a kind of latent and quiet militancy for
a present and pleasant life without looking for gratuitous
fame. Cédric Vuille proposes here his first solo album
among several projects with his own band L'Ensemble Rayé.
A way of expressing just beneath the surface his optimistic
outlook on life. Like a kind of relaxed René Aubry,
Cédric Vuille executes tunes with spirit and punctuated
with reggae rhythms dear to L'Ensemble Rayé. A manner
to cock a snook at the death that may go rocking to wait for
better days.
Lively not mortal.
