Music reviews of One Love
Music Review: All Love For One Love
Rating: 5 Stars
From his meager beginnings as a DJ in the Parisian gay club Broad, David Guetta has gone from strength to strength. He gathered a powerful reputation in both the gay and straight dance culture roping in fans from near and far. Then in 1992, fortune struck his DJ table and he met Robert Owens, a Chicago-based house music specialist who heard some of Guetta's own works and picked one to do his own vocals on. The resulting song was a hit called Up and Away. He also has the distinction of being the first French to organize Ibiza in 1996. Now in 2009, Guetta is releasing another album and being rumored to headline the 2010 Sydney Mardi Gras.
Since that time, Guetta has released four albums of his own work with the latest release One Love having just been released to the international music market. Featuring some of the biggest names in music today doing vocals on his album, the album with it's moving rhythms, solid vocal delivery and melodic beats is destined to be one of the biggest dance releases of this year.
By now, everyone has heard When Love Takes Over featuring ex-Destiny's Child member Kelly Rowland. The soaring vocals combined with the intricate piano melodies have given the track mass air play worldwide. Guetta taps Rowland's talents again on It's The Way You Love Me which is going to be a welcome addition to Guetta's already extensive repertoire. It's never been a secret that Guetta is a talented song writer and his knack for knowing what the listener wants is in the spotlight with catchy lyrics, music and sounds that catch any listener's attention. The song also highlights Rowland's truly dynamic singing ability and why she has lasted song long in such a cut throat and fickle industry.
Not content to finish with Rowland there, he blends her talents with that of rapper Ne-Yo on the surprisingly stunning duet Choose. Guetta has successfully blended the two formidable industry heavy weights into one track and used his knowledge of what sound good in a club to good use. The almost trance sounding music blends nicely with Guetta's house music roots. The music at times does overwhelm the vocal delivery from both singers leaving the end feeling a little bit rough but still an eager listening experience.
No stranger to Guetta releases is Chris Willis who features on no less than three tracks throughout the album. His Gospel sounding voice rings out loud and proud over the tracks Getting Over which is reminisce of Guetta's other smash hit Love Is Gone, the last commercially released single between the pair. Willis also pops up on the outstanding track Sound of Letting Go which boarders on an electronic rock song. The background music almost falls prey to stereotyped dance anthems. It starts off with almost an early to mid-90's synth track and then becomes an almost synth heavy track that belongs more in a rock category. The overall effect makes it a track that will be played frequenty. Fortunately, Willis' voice is strong enough not to be overwhelmed by the musical backing and features beautifully about halfway through when the music makes a brief pause..
Guetta taps Willis one more time to finish off the album with the track It's Your Life. A piece that blends house and trance music beautifully. Guetta has shown an obvious keen interest throughout the entire album towards more trance music than his house music heritage. This track is a prime example with the hypnotic beats and repetitive riff that gets employed throughout the entire track. It's definitely evidence that Guetta is capable of succeeding in whatever genre he tries his hand at.
It would be unforgivable to not mention the inclusion of I Gotta Feeling by the Black Eyed Peas which Guetta helped write and produce for their album The E.N.D. earlier this year. The version on Guetta's album is the FMIF Remix Edit which has a more electronic feel than that on the Black Eyed Peas release.
To return the favor for working on their album, Will.I.Am features on two of Guetta's tracks On The Dancefloor and I Wanna Go Crazy. The eager rapping and smooth adaption of his skills towards the electronic music style shows that Will.I.Am is a diverse performer who can attempt and not just hip-hop which he is most commonly known for. His unique vocal stylings suit the tracks he's included on perfectly. Guetta has masterfully written the track to suit the singer's voice and it's in evidence just how successful this talent can be.
Enjoying much airplay at the moment is Guetta's song Sexy B***h featuring work with Akon. The singer has long been known for his melodic abilities and hip-hop attitude. Guetta has taken these two factors into account and has worked them together nicely creating a track that has an overall invitingly sexy appeal. The beat is one that you can tap your foot to quite easily and the backing music, as with many of the tracks, features an easily recognizable riff.
The saying is `save the best for last.' Guetta has obviously not subscribed to this philosophy as he's saved the best for track 11 where he unveils the album's crown jewel is the title track featuring Estelle. With Estelle's soulful voice, she belts out the track with practiced ease over Guetta's masterful command of any instrument he approaches. The blending of these two supremely talented artists results in a song that moves the body and has the head bopping along whether you realize it or not.
Showing that Guetta is truly a master of multiple dance genres is the ambient chill out track If We Ever featuring the talents of Makeba. The music is lush and the vocal delivery relaxed and liquid. If ever there was a track ready made for featuring and headlining a Ministry of Sound Chill-out volume, this is it. The track feels like it has just fallen into place easily and leaves you just wanting to lie back and bask in the sheer beauty of the song.
The album is an amazing piece of musical creativity with Guetta traversing several different dance genres. The well constructed house and trance beats meets the laid back ambience. Guetta then ropes in some of the biggest names in the hip-hop genre to add their own magic to his music. With names like Kelly Rowland, Ne-Yo and Akon, how can anyone not question just what makes this man so talented that these people are lining up to work with him. The truth is in the beats, the bass and the melody. The testament to Guetta's ability stands here in the finished product. One Love is a complete musical journey on it's own and an album which can be put on heavy rotation without fear of becoming bored with listening to it.
