艺人介绍

Smoke City是一支英国乐队。他们的音乐难以归类,结合了例如爵士和trip pop等现代风格,也借入了很多巴西风格,例如桑巴和bossanova。他们最著名的单曲是“Underwater Love”,1996年非常热门。值得注意的是这支歌的录影比矩阵更早使用了“子弹时间”。

在1997年乐队发型了他们首张专辑“Flying Away”,包括几个热门曲目像“Underwater Love”,“Mr. Gorgeous(and Miss Curvaceous)”和“Joga Bossa (Aguas de Março)”。FlyingAway尽管因为运用了大量元素从light trip-pop到柔和的吉他民谣,已然难以归类,Smoke City的下一张专辑,Heroesof Nature(2001年发型),甚至被众多粉丝都认为过于怪异,结合了更多的风格,在一些曲目中亦加入了舞曲节奏。

Though based in London, the trip-hop trio Smoke City created music with a distinctively Brazilian, bossa nova-influenced sound — no surprise given that vocalist Nina Mirandas childhood was divided between the UK and South America. Miranda formed Smoke City with former schoolmate Mark Brown, with whom she shared an affection not only for the music of Santana and Gilberto Gil but also classic 70s funk; rounding out the line-up with guitarist Chris Franck, formerly of the Brighton-based Brazilian percussion group Batu, the group issued a handful of indie-label singles before signing to Jive Records in the fall of 1995. Their debut LP Flying Away followed two years later, and was highlighted by the single Underwater Love, which became a European hit thanks to its use in a commercial campaign for Levis jeans.
