Thanks to all of you for your comments on this website and on all the other platforms like Soundcloud, Vimeo, Myspace, LastFM. They are really important to me because they allow me to know that my music touches you, and what can be more important for an artist?
As you can see, the website has changed its look… What can this hide or herald? Sunny days? A new album? Well…both of them, my dear friends ! Spring is here, so is the sun, the sea, at last we live outdoor !
And the album is coming, it is about to arrive. I have composed many tracks and I have recently decided to choose some of them for an album and make it available to you. The choice has been very difficult, besides it is not completely done. I still hesitate about some tracks: do I put them in this album or do I keep them for the next album? But the tracks are mastered now, so the decision should come without further delay.
The same goes for the artwork. I’m finalizing it, I’m looking for what suits the music best.
I have listened to the tracks on different systems, on other monitorings than mine, on lounge stereo systems, while driving, while walking with the ipod.
I make my circle listen to them in order to get their feedback, here is an excerpt from a night with some musicians friends :
- This one is so bloody powerful ! exclaims Kad aka Ottis. It is really excellent, is it a new track ?
- Yeah, it is among the tracks that I’m about to release soon… I say.
- Oh yeah, class ! It is a honour then, we even get them before they are released !
- I wanted you to listen to them and get your feedback…
- I like a lot, there is a pure groove in it.
- And it comes out so well from that… Tian observes, pointing to Adriana’s stereo system.
- In fact I must come and listen to my sounds at your place, Kad continues.
- It’s his machines that sound like this Kad, listen, it sounds here exactly as at his place.
- A madman’s machines ! Kad exclaims.
- No, it doesn’t come from the machines… machines are nothing without their master ! I exclaimed in a general burst of laugh.
- It’s clear ! Kad says claping on my hand.
- In fact, it’s the texture he has put in his sounds, Tian notes.
- Indeed, and also the composition, Kad adds. I love the whole thing.
- Everything is played in this track, not a line has been written with the mouse, everything is hand-made ! I specified. This album is all about this.
- All the tracks are like this one? Damn it, it rocks ! I find it very precise for something that’s hand-made indeed. It’s huge. So organic… ouainnn kichhhhh ! Kad concludes.
The album shoud be released in the course of May, it will be entitled “Metaswing”. So big up friends ! I can’t wait for you all to listen to it !
