Shoketta gives jazz a new voice on latest release “Summer time”

Shoketta kicks off “Summertime” by reimagining it with a deep, jazz-filled bass line built on Richie Goods’ acoustic bass. The arrangement announces its character right away, with Clarence Penn’s drums opening up the musical space and Andy Ezrin’s Rhodes adding bright, scattered color. And then percussion from Daniel Sadownick adds another layer of rhythm in the lower registers, before Shoketta’s vocals finally come in.

Shoketta makes the standard her own, taking a familiar composition and treating it like a modern jazz vocalist, with her own phrasing and expression. The performance doesn’t rely on the song’s pre-existing identity; instead, the singer’s interpretation becomes an integral part of the experience. But the musicians around her leave enough space for the track to breathe, keeping it jazz-centered.

The biggest surprise comes when Nozomi Yamaguchi’s electric guitar takes the arrangement in a more unexpected, adventurous direction. That change adds a discovery element to “Summertime,” pulling the performance out of its original jazz context. Shoketta’s voice remains at the heart of the piece, and the musicians continue exploring possibilities around it. The result is a thoughtful interpretation that stays true to tradition while still pushing the music in a new direction.

François Marius & Bérénice hit the big stage with latest release “Chasing Dreams”

“Chasing Dreams,” by François Marius & Bérénice, is an ode to ambition, to movement, to the need to leave the known for something bigger. This song is about leaving the country life behind and heading to the city with the dream of making it to the big stage and showing the world what they can do. It’s very much about, you know, seizing an opportunity, not waiting for an opportunity.

A smart suit, a smart look, the latest trend, all of this helps to paint the picture of someone ready to step out into a bigger world. The song has a clear goal in mind: success, recognition, and the chance to shine bright, with the idea of seeing their name up on a billboard.

“Chasing Dreams” is effective because its message is simple. It’s about being afraid of what’s to come, taking a chance, wanting more. François Marius & Bérénice, from the yard to the city and to the big stage, make personal ambition the heart of the song.
