Our Lives Are Too Short is the debut album from this French trio, and what a debut. This funky hip-hop project is complimented by producer Irfane and Jerome Hadey, and graffiti artist Jay1, who lends his skills to the artwork. From the start, Outlines hits you with “Show Me (feat. Beat Assailant),” a playful tune that’s quickly followed by the title track, which is even more hype. Next is “Now That I’m Free” featuring the RZA, of Wu-Tang fame. This tune flows so seamlessly that you might forget it’s a hip-hop track at first, but once the RZA hits the mic, you quickly remember what it’s all about. If you’re not sure about the album yet, once you hear “Listen To The Drums,” with its rhythmic high hats and enticing accompaniment, it’s sure to seal the deal. Then there’s “Back to 1984,” an instrumental song that’s a nice throw-back track to the electro-beats and sonic vibes of the early ‘80s. Finally, “Waiting In Line (feat. Beat Assailant)” towards the album’s end is a nice downtempo song with a chill kind of flow. Ultimately, Our Lives Are Too Short is a refreshing album that’s a positive sign, we hope, of things to come.

Des instrus brillantes, du hip-hop, du jazz, de l’electro, du funk.
Et à l’arrivée, un méli-mélo tout en caresses pour les oreilles.
L’envie de se mettre bien à l’aise : voilà l’effet que procure Our Lives Are Too Short

Le trio Alsaciens nous livrent une production intelligente,
parfait alliage entre plusieurs styles musicaux, l’expression de plusieurs époques.
Mélodies soignées, mélangeant jazz, funk, hip-hop et électro, dans la lignée du travail de Dj Medhi.

On retrouve dans l\\\'album les contributions de Beat Assaillant, Abd al Malik et
du légendaire RZA (Wu Tang Clan) sur l\\\'excellent Now that I\\\'m Free

Les rythmiques sont efficaces et le résultat s\\\'avère particulièrement rafraîchissant.
A l\\\'instar de Dj Cam ou Wax Tailor, Outlines ouvre une nouvelle brèche dans le carcan de l\\\'électro hexagonale,
n\\\'hésitant pas à s\\\'extraire des ritournelles stéréotypées imposées par la tendance actuelle.
