ReviewElectro Tribal. Nominé en 1999 aux Grammy Awards avec Release, le volume 2 de ses aventures, Afro Celt Sound System est un groupe réputé pour sa facture et son innovation musicale, se situant hors des sentiers battus alliant influences Celtes et Africaines, comme son nom l indique si bien. Plus évident dès la première écoute que ses prédécesseurs, Further in Time semble apaiser la folie qui habitait le groupe, notamment lors de ces prestations scéniques. En compagnie d invités illustres comme Peter Gabriel sur When You re Falling et Robert Plant sur le magnifique Life Begins Again , le combo démontre si besoin était qu il n est pas un groupe de second plan. Même si sampler et ordinateur sont à l honneur, la flûte, le djembé et les guitares acoustiques ont droit de cité. À (re)découvrir. - 12 titres, 70m42s - -- CompactAmazon.caSupported by the usual crew of great African and Irish musicians, Grammy award nominated Afro Celt Sound System's third album, Further In Time is not the most convincing showcase of Afro Celt Sound System's craftsmanship and versatility. Previously, ACSS made techno-infected music that didn't just borrow a few African and Celtic flavours but strove to create something new and expressive from both. This time, however, the Afro-Celt aesthetic has lost some of its whip-cracking fire. It is less integrated and engaging than usual but they have still fashioned an album of quiet extremes. Further In Time begins in characteristic form with "North" which is lovely, original drum & bass, embellished with fiddles and evocative chanting. Into this Afro-Celt invocation, the bland "When You're Falling" featuring Peter Gabriel sounds like it's walked off a MOR Tom Petty album. The first track by Led Zeppelin's Robert Plant, "Life Begin Again" isn't much better and soon you're wishing Sinead O'Connor or Iarla O'Lionard would swing into view. However "Colossus", exuberant, "Shadowman" and the elegiac, funky title track go some way to make amends. Although Further In Time is full of high calibre musicianship, dazzling polyrhythms and lots of heart, the end result is a pretty patchy album. --Reuben Dessay
