Charlotte Adigéry: Zandozi [Deewee, 2019]
Playful turns concept on Belgium-based, English-language, French-Caribbean electrodancepop EP, so airy and beaty as it darts back and forth across the permeable borders of use value ("High Lights," "Paténipat") ***
Topical Dancer [Deewee, 2022]
Light as a bag of popcorn with sea salt but no butter please, Martiniquan-Guadeloupan Adigéry and Belgian-Chinese Pupul split the hair's-breadth between witty and arch, funny and amusant, laugh-a-minute and gigglefritz. This is world-funk lite with a playful show of attitude and occasional touches of moral acuity albeit not quite political specificity. It's gone before you know it, but next time it comes out of the speakers you'll recognize it instantly--and dance to it too if that's your thing. B+
