The song or album is a constant process." - Booka Shade But as soon as it's finished you want it to be something else.

Mementos darkness has been replaced with a more buoyant mood, as though the producers threw open the windows in their basement, allowing chinks of morning light to penetrate their mercurial basslines and shimmering structures. Movements aims to bring together the expert tinkering that underlies their production style with grooves that only the most dedicated dancefloor aficionados are capable of cooking up.Īnchored by a reworked version of their 2005 smash "Mandarine Girl", the album erases the genre boundaries between electro, house, techno, glitch, disco and experimental pop as it traverses the highbrow and low-end regions that exist between the Metro Area-ish opener "Night Falls" to "Lost High", the highly cinematic finale. The second album from founders of the German Get Physical label, is both lighter and more expansive than their groundbreaking debut, Memento. They made the event beautiful and i totally would have wanted to be part of the crowd to hear them sing live.I could easily call them the best House band as they kinda made it what it is today with their album Movement Most Popular Paper Moon starts quite diffrent than other songs they've released.It still has the funny-happy kind of flow but the start of the song is fairly diffrent from the rest.They add in a scary-mysterious feeling they create trough the help of Electro that i believe is the best part of the song.Its diffrent than what they are used to but they made it work and added it into their usual flow.īooka Shades performed live at HMV Forum in London on Friday,10th September 2010. The way the beats hit as much as for the Electro add-ups make the song great,but now that's viable for all the songs they released,as they succeded to find something new and sticked with it.You can say this Chill Electro-House music is actually their creation,as noone did it beforehand.īody Language is the most popular song of them all as it brings a funny,happy kind flow,which if im not mistaken it wasn't much of at that time.Body Language was one of the songs that merged not only the House-Electro style but was merged with Downtempo.Many,including me found it very interesting and genious. I could easily call it my favorite as it makes you feel relaxed when you hear the House and Electro merging into one,as most of Booka Shade music does that.They were the first at that time to ever succed using the two at the same time and making legendary art with it. Those would be Night Falls, The Birds & The Beats, Wasting Time, Pong Pang, Paper Moon, Darko, Hide & Seek in Geisha's Garden, In White Rooms, Shimmer, Body Language,Hallelujah USA and Lost High The Album movement is made out of of 12 songs that changed Electro-House forever. Their first album had great success and that placed alot of pressure on them when it came to releasing Movement.Their 2nd album not only matched the firsts album popularity,it actually skyrocketed,as even today its known as one of the best-if not-the best house-electronic music album ever released.The Album beeing so popular even today,after 10 years from release,shows that old Booka Shade's music never died and it might not for a long time.
Movement was their second album, Memento beeing their first,which was released in 2004.Other Albums they released after 2004 would be The Sun & The Neon Light in 2008,More! in 2010 and Eve which was released in 2013 beeing their newest album.
