about

Nic Ekla, membre des groupes belges Les Brochettes et Ming, sort chez Dokidoki son deuxième album solo. Poésie noire, new-wave synthétique.
Au hasard des histoires que racontent les douze chansons de Soulstreet se croisent des contrebandiers, un colosse mangeur d'enfants, une jeune fille et des amants maudits ; les véhicules et les cœurs explosent ; les villes s'enflamment et les avions s'écrasent ; l'amour passe, la trahison est générale. Un romantisme XIXème croise le roman noir, le no-future se fait élégiaque.

Wilf Plum , ex-batteur des post-punk Dog Faced Hermans assure basse, guitare et chœurs au fil de l'album, et accompagne LEM sur scène.
Felix Kubin, savant fou de l'electronique allemande, joue du clavier sur « Les Avions », reprise d'un morceau des Brochettes de 1997.
Invités aussi, Arthur Rimbaud pour une adaptation de « ce qu'on dit au poète à propos de fleurs », et Elli & Jacno pour une reprise du « Boomerang » de 82, relecture de ce qu'on appelait alors « la révolte ».
