THE DYNAMICS • DRAG’N’FLY par VINCENT BONJOUR

Jamaïque, années 60. Les artistes ska, rock steady et reggae reprennent des titres de soul venus des Etats-Unis, donnant ainsi leurs versions qui deviendront à leur tour de futurs classiques. Les hits du moment sont également assaisonnés à la sauce jamaïcaine, qu’importe la provenance d’origine, pop, country, jazz… Les rythmes de l’île transforment définitivement les tracks d’origines. En 2024, avec leur troisième album baptisé Dragn’fly et orné d’une magnifique libellule (un « dragonfly » donc, dans la langue de King Tubby) the Dynamics honorent la tradition jamaïcaine et dynamitent 10 versions de hits d’hier et d’aujourd’hui. Le Dragonfly déploie ses ailes reggae, soul, funk pour se poser dans tous les casques au coeur des bonnes stéréos
et sur les dancefloors épicés. Car ce dragonfly est un véritable « superfly » qui parle au coeur… et aux jambes.

Après deux albums dont le succès les a conduit à arpenter le globe de Glastonbury à Tokyo, adoubés par les grands anciens (une première partie de Lee Perry ici, un support dj régulier de Don Letts par-là) the Dynamics ravivent donc leur « soul reggae vocal sound system » rôdé devant des publics spécialistes de sonorités jamaïcaines ou devant celles et ceux qui ont eu la chance de les croiser par hasard en compagnie des Chemical Brothers… ou de Lady Gaga.

The Dynamics ont su oublier le poids des ancêtres pour faire leur propre recette. Ils le proclament, ils sont Sound System ! Les voix de Mounam, Steve Levi et Mr Day tiennent les premières rangs, se faisant lovers, prêcheurs, crooners et crooneuses à
tours de rôles, tandis que Fab Master Flab enrobe le tout dans un des echos roots et futuristes. Mais si l’esprit est “sound system”, the Dynamics sonne aussi comme un groupe grâce aux instruments joués live qui plongent les titres dans une ferveur unique.

Et puis il y a les hits, donc, de toutes les époques et de tous les styles.
Le low rider devient toaster et quitte les routes américaines porté par ces harmonies vocales célestes pour prendre la sortie Kingston. Sur le bord de la route, le joker délivre son lovers rock suave après un petit détour à Muscle Shoal, le temps d’emprunter une guitare à Duane Allman. Dans le sud encore, Mounam « Mrs Dynamics » rencontre l’esprit de « Mr Dynamite » et lui conte sa version, radicale, soul forcément. “It’s a man man’s world…” inna digital style ! L’hymne spirituel
“you got to have freedom” du maître Pharoah Sanders devient un skank universel, pop et dub qui envoie résonner très haut son message universel Dance ! The dynamics font muter le classique d’ESG en une petite bombe pop minimale qui
n’est pas sans rappeler les Neptunes de Mr Pharell Williams. Sur le bord de la piste, Peter Gabriel voit son « Sledgehammer » groover comme il ne pouvait l’imaginer et se dissoudre dans de sublimes volutes soul. Un peu plus loin, “After laughter…”, classique soul mille fois célébré et samplé renait en un rock steady aérien promis lui aussi à l’éternité. « Cocaïne » de JJ Cale, laisse sa trace sur le dancefloor pour une version reggae disco, forcément ! Et puis, il faut conclure. Alors il temps
d’envoyer un titre original. Ce sera « Rubba Sub », aux arômes de sleng teng, qui prouve que loin des hits, the Dynamics déploie les mêmes dispositions à délivrer des sons frais et authentiques.

Et quand les echos dub se sont évaporées, que les riddims se sont tus, ne reste qu’un album majestueux, à son tour futur classique, empli du son unique des Dynamics qui mélange à l’instinct les échos d’hier à ses propres voix d’aujourd’hui.
