She was fittingly also a favourite of many international label staples from Eskimo Recordings to Opaz; while in the UK, she collaborated with producer Ray Hayden of Opaz for her standout single &#8216;Revival&#8217;. A significant underground hit, &#8216;Revival&#8217; veers on the aspirated side of the downbeat street soul sound. Girault&#8217;s style is both angelic and hoarse, and riffs on the temporal bubbles of the contemporaneous genre new jack swing, while getting at something much higher than either style alone can peg. This reissue reproduces the song in pristine stereo, and brings out the ghost-noted piano hook to extra pop-out effect.<\/p>\n<p>Label: Be Yourself Recordings<br \/>\nFormat: 12&#8243;<br \/>\nCat: BEYOU 017<br \/>\nReleased: 31 Mar 25<br \/>\nGenre: Acid Jazz<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.juno.co.uk\/products\/martine-girault-revival-vinyl\/1072721-01\/?utm_campaign=alert_auto_email&#038;utm_source=auto_email_jr&#038;utm_medium=artist&#038;utm_content=alert_title&#038;ref=motionfm&#038;utm_source=affiliate&#038;utm_medium=affiliate&#038;utm_campaign=affiliate_dashboard_referral&#038;ref=motionfm&#038;utm_source=affiliate&#038;utm_medium=affiliate&#038;utm_campaign=affiliate_dashboard_referral\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>BUY 12&#8243;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>TRACKLIST<\/p>\n<p>Side A<br \/>\n1. &#8220;Revival&#8221;<br \/>\n2. &#8220;Revival&#8221; (Soulpersona Rare Groove mix)<\/p>\n<p>Side B<br \/>\n1. &#8220;Revival&#8221; (Japanese LP mix)<br \/>\n2. &#8220;Revival&#8221; (Funky Vibes mix)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Review Brooklyn-born street soul artist Martine Girault was an epitomal artist in the genre, and her extended stopover in the UK &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":20491,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[16],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20490"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20490"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20490\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20492,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20490\/revisions\/20492"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20491"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20490"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20490"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/motionfm.com\/wp2014\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20490"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
