Tortue's Garage Vol. 4 : Jupiter & The Magistrates

OMFG BBQ ! 3 songs ? JF you are fantastic !!

I know I know, thank you ! ;-) 

Today I'm gonna present you a group that I'm following since the last summer : Jupiter with two songs I really really like : Starlighter and Chips. I have very few information about the group (except a messy and poorly informed MySpace (just like 99% MySpace in the world...) where I just read that they are French) but their music is nice mix of modern melodrama melodies with a really awesome 80's-ish touch (especially with this kind of guitar/keyboards (forgot the name) made by Yamaha) that give you as much energy as you need whether to go clubbing or just before to go to work, out loud in your Popod!

The second group introduced here is usually not the kind of music I use to listen, but when I started to listen that song, just like the "Proust's Madeleine" instantaneously brought me in some other places...except that I don't exactly know where ! The music starts with notes that are not totally 80's-ish but rather 90's with a deep touch of japanimation/old RPG's, suddenly starts drums that once again brings you back in the 80's as they are the same that Kate Bush used in her song "Runnning Up That Hill". Then, the singer starts and all the mix become a quite usual English pop song...very strange as the band seems quite young.
