\"Asuka<\/a>A juzgar por el sonido de su big band<\/i>, Asuka<\/strong> Kakitani<\/strong> es una enamorada de los arreglos de Kenny<\/strong> Wheeler<\/strong>. No la culpo. Su proyecto suena agradable, preciosista e impecable, aun a costa de caer en una dulzura extrema.<\/p>\n

Influencias de hace pocas d\u00e9cadas sobresalen en el CD. \u201cElectric Images\u201d nos transporta a los a\u00f1os setenta, \u201cBumblebee Garden\u201d arranca con una combinaci\u00f3n de saxo soprano y guitarra ac\u00fastica que rememora al grupo Oregon<\/strong> y, volviendo al modelo de Wheeler<\/strong>, la voz de Sara<\/strong> Serpa<\/strong> recuerda a la de Norma<\/strong> Winstone<\/strong> integr\u00e1ndose en la formaci\u00f3n como un instrumento m\u00e1s. A Kakitani<\/strong> le gusta partir de un concepto sencillo e ir desarroll\u00e1ndolo con maestr\u00eda hasta conseguir una densidad arm\u00f3nica notable, ya sea repitiendo motivos que cambian constantemente de contexto o contraponiendo dos acordes, como en \u201cDance One\u201d.<\/p>\n

Entre las contribuciones individuales son de destacar los solos de Jason<\/strong> Rigby<\/strong> en \u201cBloom\u201d (emulando a Michael<\/strong> Brecker<\/strong>), Kenny<\/strong> Berger<\/strong> en la tradicional \u201cOpened Opened\u201d (sobre un acompa\u00f1amiento cargado de dramatismo) y Pete<\/strong> McCann<\/strong> en \u201cIslands In The Stream\u201d, acerc\u00e1ndose al jazz-rock<\/i> y acabando en un fade-out<\/i> roto que contrasta con la limpieza del resto del disco.<\/p>\n

Deliciosa como pocas, esta big band<\/i> acariciar\u00e1 los o\u00eddos de los amantes del jazz elegante, moderno pero no fe\u00edsta. El resultado es formidable, pero lo ser\u00e1 a\u00fan m\u00e1s cuando Asuka<\/strong> Kakitani<\/strong> encuentre su voz propia.<\/p>\n
