ACTUALITY AND ODOURS :  WATER, A  MATTER OF ODOURS               

Following a report published by the American organization Worldwatch Institute it appears that the drink which knows the strongest growth on the world market does not save the environment. Cold shower for mineral water! Because this water is sometimes less controlled than that of the tap. The worst to come is that it is far from being ecologically correct. The intensive exploitation of the sources has a strong environmental impact indeed since the rivers and the underground tablecloths do not give anymore. To the energy expenditure due to pumping, to the setting out of bottle, packing, transport, storage and the delivery, then the million tons of plastic, derived from oil are added. Moreover if the mineral water consumption does not cease increasing, it does not prevent a billion people on the earth from being private of access to drinking water. Thus, water bottle seems to be a luxury, almost indecent. Between 1997 and 2005, the world market has doubled, the sales have triplet in India and doubled in China. An average American consumes 28,6 litters of water per annum whereas the price is absolutely exorbitant. Water out of bottle is indeed 240 to 10.000 times more expensive than that of the tap. In the industrialized countries, one cubic meter returns thus between 500 and 1.000 dollars, whereas it costs 50 hundreds in California for a water of the tap of very good quality

The Megabyte, as named  is a free company of nine musicians to draw the language with the dogmas from the jazz. Andy Emler chose this time to play in company of a band of young Turks

 (Médéric Collignon, Laurent Dehors, François Thuillier, Eric Echampard…), and   put these talents at the service of smart and confidentoal music arrangements .Because this Megabyte, new grinding of the kind (after the participation of the Basque Benat Achiary), is with the hardware-bop, the funk, the music Tibetan and the jazz what imagination is with the melodies of the academism: definitively another thing. The whole sounds with the elegance of this French Touch which, since Satie, worries and charms.
