Review: "The year was 91, and the Norwegian music magazine
BEAT was still bloody good. Later the magazine got much weaker in
both creativity and quality, before it was laid down for good. But
thats another story. Well, Nadja Petrick was given a good review
in the magazine, which I read and became pretty curious about it.
But soon I forgot the whole thing
.
Months later, I was raiding the bargain bins in some music shops in
my area and stumbled across the cd of Nadja Petrick at a ridiculously
low price. I bought it of course and since that day Ive played
it nearly to pieces ! And Ive introduced it to friends who got
the same experience as me.
Judging by her heavy accent when she sings, and her name, Nadja Petrick
is probably of Eastern Europe origin. I usually respond a bit negative
to accents in when it comes to the English language. And believe me,
when youre Norwegian as me, youve heard a lot of it !
But somethings different with Nadjas vocal chords and
singing style. It got loads of charm, nearly naive sounding at times
and has got this wonderful husky expression. Besides writing all the
lyrics and music, she plays guitar as well. Joey Balin, the producer
is responsible for the clever arrangements.
"You Are The Only One is a catchy mid-tempo tune with clever
keyboard-work from Simon Clarke and some great soul filled backing
vocals from a quintet behind Nadja. A marked, steady, rhythm pushed
forward by drummer Manny Elias is the core of the great "Borderline
with some distant screaming guitar, probably delivered by David Rhodes.
Its his kind of style. The title track "April Fool,
is a beautiful song, pretty quiet and again with more guitar from
David Rhodes, excellent keyboard-work and Pino Palladinos warm
bass. Makes me think of David Bowie, for some reason. A really outstanding
song ! "Dont Beg Me No More has this easy acoustic
riff, some light drumming and with no other than Danny Thompson on
contra bass. A lovely song which makes me think of Lou Reed, it could
easily have fitted in on his great "Transformer album
!! Things get more funky on "Jumping So High, one of the
tracks I dont care that much about, but the follower "Darlin
is just great ! Its catchy as hell with the earlier mentioned
backing vocalist doing a great job, lifts the track with their gospel-choir
style and makes it hard to sit still. "Aint No Road
is more melancholy with its acoustic expression, strengthen
by a distant cello and accordion in the background. Goodie ! On "When
The Wave Rolls In the power increases considerably and is a
catchy sing-along track. "Turn Out The Light is a beautiful
ballad with some nice piano and slide guitar and the overall sound
is pretty grandiose. Nice album closer !
The voice of Nadja Petrick is probably not everybodys cup of
tea, with its accent and rather special expression, but I just
love this album, I can tell you that ! Its an album full of
good pop songs done with feeling and respect from a bunch of good
musicians."

Sirens
of Berlin
17 female singer/songwriters from Berlin, 2005.
Price: 16,99 €.
"In February 2004 we celebrated the 7th anniversary of our
venue Bluebird Café Berlin. We organized two
evenings with several female artists and named it Women in
concert. The high quality of the performances and the very
big interest of the audience made us think, that we should do more
about that. We wanted to do a project in which all these great energies
are bundled up and all these great artists get the chance to be
presented to an even bigger audience. After the idea was born within
a few days we had already seventeen acts to put on the CD although
there are plenty more but we had to make a choice otherwise the
CD would be too long. All these singer/songwriter come from various
places of the world and are now making a living in Berlin. They
write their songs about love and life, sorrow and grief but also
about hopes and dreams and one thing is for sure it´s
all great handmade acoustic music.
So take an hour off and enjoy the music of the Sirens of Berlin.
