Uman Biography

There is a Belgian artist and a French duo with this name:

1) Uman is a French brother and sister team, Didier and Danielle Jean. They released their first CD, Chaleur Humaine, in 1992, their second, Terra Incognita, in 1994. Purple Passage was released in 1997, and You Are Here was released in 2000.

Uman comes from a Native American word, umane, meaning roughly "Earth Forces" (see http://www.lakotaarchives.com/laksymbolpr.html).

The music draws from moods and textures, with the vocals usually blended in as sounds rather than words. The later CDs include artwork by Zad, created especially for the musical compositions.

2) Brussels underground hiphop and ragga veteran (cf. De Puta Madre and soundsystem Bass Culture). Uman's first solo album: "l'aventure c'est l'aventure".

« L’aventure c’est l’aventure » met fin à un silence de quelques années, car depuis le mini album « La Chaîne Alimentaire » en 2003, on avait plus trop de nouvelles discographiques de l’homme, mis à part quelques 45 tours et l’album mixtape « Umanizm ». Uman s’est éloigné des fureurs ragga qui étaient sa marque de fabrique pour accoucher de cet opus plus mélancolique et réfléchi. Réalisé en compagnie du jeune producteur Simon Lesaint, Bai Kamara et Peter Soldan, « L’aventure c’est l’aventure » reste tout de même dans les tons jamaïcains (excepté l’incursion congolaise et énergique de « Comme On A Dit »). Le reggae roots domine, embelli de belles touches acoustiques (mélodica, accordéon, guitare sèche) et d’un soin particulier accordé aux mélodies. Un disque sincère qui contient son lot de franches réussites (« En Avant Toute », « On A Le Temps », « Ma Gueule ») et, malgré une relative uniformité, s’écoute avec plaisir.
