Тексты песен Just Jack
Информация о артисте
История певца по имени Jack Allsopp, который именует себя просто Just Jack - это почти сказка о молодом человеке, родившемся в бедном квартале Лондона и по счастливой случайности ставшим новым кумиром молодежи. Его музыкальный стиль — это смесь тех музыкальных направлений, среди которых он вырос – брэйкдэнс, электро, хип-хоп, рэп, хаус и поп-музыка.
По признанию самого Just Jack, музыка всегда была частью его жизни: в 15 лет он уже стоял за диджейским пультом. Правда, днем он занимался более тривиальными вещами — работал уборщиком, садовником, рекламным агентом и даже флористом. Любая работа была хороша, если позволяла заниматься главным – сочинять и играть собственные песни.
И вот в конце 2006 года сказка стала явью – альбом “Overtones” принес исполнителю Just Jack безусловный успех и признание как критиков, так и многомиллионной аудитории. Современная музыка, актуальные тексты, превосходное исполнение – вот те три кита, которые позволили альбому несколько недель находиться в первой десятке UK Top 40, а песне “Starz In Their Eyes” подняться до второй позиции в английских чартах. Кстати, российские радиостанции тоже оценили этот хит и его уже можно услышать на радио Maximum, M-Радио, а также на DFM.
Критики называют его стиль урбанистическим декадансом и сравнивают с Майком Скиннером, но сам Jack против этого, — «У меня никогда не было кумиров, и я никогда не хотел быть похожим на других музыкантов. Я не часть системы, я Просто Джек». Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
Jack Allsopp - Just Jack
Born in North London, Jack grew up on a diet of dance music including, break dance, electro hip hop and house. A wannabe break dancer at eight, his love of dance music led him to start DJing at the age of fifteen and he soon became submerged in DJ culture and US garage.
After completing a degree in Furniture Design Jack enrolled on a community music production course, which heightened his awareness to the potential of sampling. This inspired Jack to concentrate on perfecting his sound by night and to take on a series of unfulfilling jobs by day.
"I've been a washer upper, a flower arranger, a runner for a TV post production company... I even worked at Gap for while. That made me all the more determined to work at the music. I would get this down time in a studio and be recording all night, and working at Gap all day. It was knackering but it was very inspiring time."
Jack's debut album, 'The Outer Marker' is a collection of songs about modern life, relationships and the pressures of social situations. Originally released by the independent label RG Records, Just Jack's debut album 'The Outer Marker' received fantastic reviews. 'The Independent' described it as "impressive", Q said, "masterful", the 'NME' said "Awesome. Welcome Just Jack, you rule!", and 'The Big Issue' saluted Jack as "The new troubadour of daily life in the UK".
"The Outer Marker" has recently been re-packaged and re-released and now includes extra tracks and the video for 'Snowflakes'. It has been receiving plenty of airplay and remixes from the likes of Aphrodite and a famous Cure bootleg of 'Snowflakes' is now thrusting Just Jack into the limelight.
Recently, Jack and his band played his third ever gig to a great crowd at the Glastonbury Dance Tent and he will be performing at the V Festivals later this summer.
Jack Allsopp on Just Jack:
"I never had heroes and never wanted to be like other musicians", he says. "I have no affiliations to anyone, I'm not part of a gang, I'm not a part of a scene and I don't have a sound that's obviously a part of a scene. I'm Just Jack."
