L’Illustration Musicale, Sonimage, Técipress-In Editions (Timing), Musax, Freesound, Montparnasse 2000 en France mais également De Wolfe et Chappell en Angleterre, tous ces labels d’illustration sonore ont le point commun de faire apparaître tel un spectre légendaire le nom de Jacky Giordano et de ses pseudonymes. Pratique courante dans le milieu de la library music, Joachim Sherylee, adopté ici pour l'album “In Motion”, est un des nombreux noms d’emprunt (avec José Pharos, Jacky Nodaro, Gruppo Sounds, Rubba…) utilisés par le compositeur français, et que l’on retrouve également chez Black Devil avec Bernard Fèvre ou encore dans les Shifters avec Yan Tregger.

Pour son intronisation sur le mythique label anglais De Wolfe, c’est sous le nom de l’obscur collectif Rubba (qui ressurgit également avec d’autres instrumentistes anglais au sein de la sous-division Rouge) que Jacky Giordano alias Joachim Sherylee s’est faufilé dans les studios londoniens De Wolfe en compagnie de collègues britannique tels que John Hyde (alias John Saunders, James Harrington utilisé chez le label Amphonic Music, Astral Sounds ou encore Wozo) et son épouse Monica Hyde (alias Monica Beale), Alan Howe (alias John Collins), Robert Poole et Tim Broughton.

Publié en 1980, le LP “In Motion: Modern progressive group sounds played by Rubba” et sa pochette rouge minimaliste et utilitaire contient en tout 13 morceaux, essentiellement composé par Joachim “Giordano” Sherylee et n’a jamais été réédité depuis lors. Devenu culte au fil du temps, il aura fallu que le monde du hip-hop, toujours aux avant-gardes et à l'affût de samples originaux, s‘en empare pour le déterrer des tréfonds du cimetière des perles musicales méconnues et sous-estimées. D’abord avec le beatmaker Madlib et Freddie Gibbs en 2011 avec le titre Thuggin', où il sample le morceau Way Star, également utilisé plus récemment par Mil et le rappeur Westside Gunn sur son titre Brains Flew by (1964 Version).

Presque quasiment quarante ans après, le label Farfalla Records, après avoir publié Timing Archives, présente une autre facette plus progressive et psychédélique du compositeur multi-casquette Jacky Giordano en rééditant enfin entièrement ce mystérieux et envoûtant Rubba tant convoité. Très recherché par les crate-diggers, In Motion figure dans les want-lists de nombreux passionnés de ce monde énigmatique qu’est la library music.

English:

L’Illustration Musicale, Sonimage, Técipress-In Editions (Timing), Musax, Freesound, Montparnasse 2000 in France but also De Wolfe and Chappell in England, every of these sound illustration labels have in common to bring out as a legendary spectre the name of Jacky Giordano and his aliases. Widespread practice in the library music world, Joachim Sherylee, chosen for the “In Motion” album, is one of his plentiful aliases (with José Pharos, Jacky Nodaro, Gruppo Sounds, Rubba...) used by the french composer, that we regain as well for Black Devil with Bernard Fèvre or even for the Shifters with Yan Tregger.

For his enthronement on the mythical english label De Wolfe, it's under the obscure name of the Rubba collective (which resurfaces evenly with other english instrumentalists within the Rouge subdivision) that Jacky Giordano aka Joachim Sherylee sneaked in the londonian De Wolfe studios with the companionship of british colleagues such as John Hyde (aka John Saunders, James Harrington used on the Amphonic Music label, Astral sounds or even Wozo) and his wife Monice Hyde (aka Monica Beale), Alan Howe (aka John Collins), Robert Poole and Tim Broughton.

Published in 1980, the "In Motion: Modern Progressive Group Sounds Played By Rubba" LP and its minimalistic and utilitarian red record cover which contains 13 tracks, mainly composed by Joachim "Giordano" Sherylee and was never reissued since then. This record became cult over time, it will have taken that the Hip-Hop world, consistently at the forefront and on the lookout for original samples, seize it in order to dig out from the disregarded and underestimated musical gems graveyard. First of all with beatmaker Madlib and Freddie Gibbs in 2011 with the track Thuggin', in which he sampled the track Way Star, also used more recently by Mil and the rapper Westside Gunn on his track Brains Flew by (1964 Version).

Nearly 40 years after, the Farfalla Records label, after publishing Timing Archives, presents another aspect more progressive and psychedelic of the multi-faceted composer Jacky Giordano by fully reissuing at last this coveted, mysterious and mesmerizing "Rubba". Very desired by crate-diggers, In Motion appears in the want-list of plenty enthusiasts in this enigmatic world of the library music.
