Another German Rave review

http://www.laut.de/lautst.../index.htm



Translation below:



Prince

Rave Un2 The Joy Fantastic

[BMG]



Does a reconciliation announce itself there? For many years this extremely talented musician had the name, under which he admits become, avoided, like the devil the Weihwasser. For many years media had to weigh whether they push the artist before the heading, or their readers with any aliases to confuse wanted. It concerned to us leagues in the name controversy not only words, but also identities: Prince had become a product, Prince wanted to mean no more Prince, because he with the name connected a completely determined expectation attitude and the sellout its artistic ideals.



Now however, in the Booklet of " Rave Un2 The Joy Fantastic ", emerges the label name suddenly again, " Composed, performed and arranged by ' symbol ' " is there, in addition,: " Produced by Prince ". " a producer can lead a musician on new ways. Prince achieves with me things, the other one cannot " the man with a press conference had explained, what drives the schizophrenia on the point and at the same time the reconciliation with that old Ego suggest.



For the new album ist's a stroke of luck that the old Prince may mix together again. So loosely and one eased the small genius already for a long time any longer to up-play not to hear. The piece of title [RealAudio hearing sample] mixes the classical skirt and Soul of earlier Prince albums with Beats up-to-date. Like the whole album also this Song has a special sound characteristic: Princes clear Falsettstimme contrasted strongly before darkly wummernden key board surfaces, with perfectly set tracing and BREAK produces Prince (the producer?) besides a relaxte tendency as at its best times.



In the further process gentle Balladen dominates. Still another conversion: To the place of the Sexsymbols, which must constantly out-cry its Libido, the sensitive Lover stepped. That must itself only times raeuspern, before he accompanies U, But Don't trust You Anymore " in " Love, only from the piano, with gentle voice its declaration of love delivers. Further beautiful romances with hit potential are " The Greatest Romance Ever pay " [RealAudio hearing sample] and " The Sun, The Moon and of star " [RealAudio hearing sample].



Also the co-operation of ' Reimtier ' Chuck D. on the radio - RWS -makes itselfSong " Undisputed " or the Duett with Sheryl Crow on " baby Knows " good. But the actual reason for the class of " Rave Un2 The Joy Fantastic " is situated elsewhere. ' symbol ' meets ' Prince ': The two find common to old strength.
