Jain - Come
Bemusterungs-Details
Beschreibung
I could have met you in the Congo. You’d have asked me to come with you to visit Mr. Flash, a brilliant artist and keen music programmer who taught you beats in his Pointe-Noire micro-studio. Local rappers would have fired off their hybrid flow of rumba and soukous while you picked out the chords to Wonderwall on a borrowed guitar, like a string of unforgettable love stories posted on your MySpace account. I could have run into you in Abu Dhabi. You’d have told me, “Come on, let’s watch The Children of Paradise, my bedside movie.” Like Arletty, you’d have thought that “Love is so simple”. You’d have dreamed of being there in the Funambules theater, where everything is dazzling, intense and radiant… the background for your stage costume, black with a touch of white. Night and purity. Sobriety and brightness. Nina Simone’s sensitivity fringed with Amy Winehouse’s darkness. I could have met you at your place, surrounded by a synth, looper and MPC. We’d have eaten hummus as we listened to your Buena Vista Social Club and Kavinsky vinyl albums. Before I left, you’d have given me your favorite line, wrapped in a 23year-old smile with a thousand lives already behind it. “Don’t be disappointed if you lose and don’t be proud if you win.”
