Includes the single 'Rose Rouge'.\n\n\nAmazon.ca\n\n\nMoby may have stolen his thunder on\nPlay but St Germain, aka Ludovic Navarre, has been showcasing his futuristic nous and love of roots music by funking up the 4\/4 electronic world with a little blues and gospel since the early 90s. After his F-Communications swan song,\nFrom Detroit To St Germain  in 98, Navarre worked with a host of great session musicians for this, his major label debut.\nTourist, his first album for the legendary Blue Note label, certainly justifies the continuing hype. A perfectly formed melodic journey of eclectic and idiosyncratic deep house that mixes blues, latin percussion and, of course, jazz without the noodle factor,\nTourist is likely to generate as much head-nodding as dancing down your local groove emporium. The tracks range from the straight-ahead blues cut, \"Rose Rouge\" to the aptly titled \"So Flute\", an Afrobeat percussive shin-dig with a wondrous flute riff. \"Latin Note\", a funky latin stomper, reminiscent of Nuyorican Soul\/Masters At Work is packed full of minor chords, smashing beats and off-the wall dynamics. Elsewhere, Navarre proves himself a master of suspense and beat-heavy poignancy, \"Pont Des Arts\" combines a carnival spirit with a monster piano groove, whereas \"What You Think About\" would have made Roy Ayers circa \"Everybody Loves The Sunshine\" very happy.\nTourist is the kind of album that is put on at a fantastic, idyllic beach bar stereo at sunset and then constantly looped, a future classic. --\nKate Nafolo\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 724352620128\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0766486152724\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45942348939298,"sku":"KV-B07A-ZVOT","price":3.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/9428\/3554\/files\/41vKW-zfSlL.jpg?v=1783604706","url":"https:\/\/kastor.club\/fr\/products\/saint-germain-tourist-cd-used","provider":"Kastor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
