Laventure and the confetti tossed funky pop love of "GIVE" (Official Video)

 











"on the dance floor baby..."


French treat Laventure on the cinematic "Give" create a unique sound that feels to me like it could of existed on the 1996 sound track to Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet. It is still, one of the best, divergent soundtracks to date and I wore out my CD back in the day. With Laventure's vocal aesthetic that feel like something between childlike and other-wordly and the ultra cool funk pop vibe it is a unique pop vision that will turn heads on any playlist. The R&B meets neo soul affections, the funk rock guitar worthy of a Prince or Bowie song and the all inclusive cool natured / atmosphere is infectious. 


"Give" simply dazzles. It feels like a luscious tasty cupcake on a plate of bran muffins.

EN

Carried in a temporal voyage starting in their respective bedrooms, the Strasbourg based duo LAVENTURE explores with wisdom, life’s joy and pain. Wavering between pop, glo-fi and soul, they weave miniature hymns with the help of their bag of tricks. With a strong and original musical identity, they peacefully ride the waves of lyrical themes such as love, growing up or sexuality. Mixing keys, guitars, pedals, double bass and vocals, the duo pull with mischief and delight a dozen of disguises out of their instrument trunk - making the promise to dance upside down, the head dived in basses and the feet swimming in space. Laventure is a paperback concert in a kaleidoscope. For those parties that start in the living room and end up on the roof. For those precious memories that we hold on to when the sun goes down. Either we choose dancing or pillows, everyone will leave with a warm heart.

Réunis suite à un voyage temporel depuis leurs chambres respectives, le duo strasbourgeois LAVENTURE explore avec sagesse les joies et les peines de la vie. Hésitant entre pop, glo-fi et soul, les deux membres tissent des hymnes miniatures à l'aide de leur bric-à-brac faussement dépareillé. Avec une identité sonore très forte et reconnaissable, ils surfent paisiblement sur les thèmes lyriques tels que l’amour, l’âge, ou la sexualité. Mêlant claviers, pédales et guitare, contrebasse et chant, ils tirent avec malice et volupté une douzaine de déguisements de leur malle à instruments - faisant la promesse de danser à l'envers, la tête dans les basses et les pieds dans le ciel. Laventure est un concert de poche en kaléidoscope. De ces soirées qui commencent au salon et finissent sur le toit. De ces souvenirs que l'on garde précieusement contre soi quand le soleil vient à manquer. Que l'on choisisse la danse ou les coussins, tout le monde repartira le coeur apaisé.
