Our Take

MILES DAVIS Ascenseur Pour L'Echafaud Review:

As we ascend into the world of Miles Davis' iconic soundtrack for Ascenseur Pour L'Echafaud, we are greeted with those unmistakable trumpet tones that have defined a generation of jazz enthusiasts. Davis' cool, introspective playing style is a perfect match for the moody, atmospheric tone of the film, creating a musical backdrop that is both tense and alluring.

The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful "Générique," setting the mood for the rest of the soundtrack with its evocative melody and sparse instrumentation. Davis' use of space and silence is masterful, allowing the listener to fill in the gaps with their own imagination.

Tracks like "L'Assassinat de Carala" and "Sur l'Autoroute" showcase Davis' ability to create tension and suspense with his playing, while "Julien Dans L'Ascenseur" and "Florence Sur Les Champs-Élysées" provide some lighter, more upbeat moments that serve as a nice contrast to the overall mood of the album.

Overall, Ascenseur Pour L'Echafaud is a beautiful, atmospheric soundtrack that showcases Miles Davis at the height of his powers. It's a must-listen for any jazz fan, and a perfect companion to a late-night viewing of the classic French noir film. So grab a glass of wine, dim the lights, and let Miles Davis transport you to the streets of Paris in the 1950s. You won't be disappointed.
