The Montreal multi-instrumentalist (real name Jean-Baptiste Beltra) released his debut album this year, aptly titled<em> Debut<\/em>. A sure start to a fine musical career on the pop\/neo-disco path, already perceptible on his first single released in 2021. A glance at his networks is all it takes to understand the artist&#8217;s attraction to retro, &#8217;70s ambiances: high-waisted pants, patterned shirts, long hair, and moustache\u2026 If we needed visual confirmation of everything we hear on the album, we&#8217;ve found it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">From the very first notes of &#8220;Wishing Well,&#8221; the album&#8217;s opening track, we&#8217;re drawn happily into Welcome John&#8217;s sonic universe. Analog synthesizers, electric bass, guitar, drums, and vocals are the basic ingredients used by the artist to cook up his soaring, catchy tracks. You&#8217;ll find colours reminiscent of Parcels, Ginger Root, and even Vulfpeck. Welcome John establishes his retro identity with multiple synth textures, a very dry drum sound, often harmonized vocals and sounds to which we&#8217;ve had fun applying a whole palette of effects, sometimes amusing, sometimes aerial, and other production tricks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s like stepping into an idealized past, redecorated to suit today&#8217;s tastes: wickedly effective pop, an absolutely undeniable groove, and totally polished production, for a refreshingly young and unmissable whole. As you can see, Debut is a must-have for all fans of good pop. A feverish accompaniment to our winter evenings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 350px; height: 687px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=1129603517\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/transparent=true\/\" seamless><a href=\"https:\/\/welcomejohn.bandcamp.com\/album\/debut\">Debut de Welcome John<\/a><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s hard not to fall for Welcome John&#8217;s groovy pop sound.
