Jean-Philippe Rameau - Rondeau des Indes galantes (Les sauvages) - 1735 - Classical

Opéra-Ballet

Wikipédia:
Jean-Philippe Rameau (French: [ʒɑ̃filip ʁamo]; 25 September 1683 – 12 September 1764) was one of the most important French composers and music theorists of the 18th century. He replaced Jean-Baptiste Lully as the dominant composer of French opera and is also considered the leading French composer for the harpsichord of his time, alongside François Couperin.

Little is known about Rameau's early years, and it was not until the 1720s that he won fame as a major theorist of music with his Treatise on Harmony (1722) and also in the following years as a composer of masterpieces for the harpsichord, which circulated throughout Europe. He was almost 50 before he embarked on the operatic career on which his reputation chiefly rests today. His debut, Hippolyte et Aricie (1733), caused a great stir and was fiercely attacked by the supporters of Lully's style of music for its revolutionary use of harmony. Nevertheless, Rameau's pre-eminence in the field of French opera was soon acknowledged, and he was later attacked as an "establishment" composer by those who favoured Italian opera during the controversy known as the Querelle des Bouffons in the 1750s. Rameau's music had gone out of fashion by the end of the 18th century, and it was not until the 20th that serious efforts were made to revive it. Today, he enjoys renewed appreciation with performances and recordings of his music ever more frequent.
...
General character of Rameau's music
Rameau's music is characterised by the exceptional technical knowledge of a composer who wanted above all to be renowned as a theorist of the art. Nevertheless, it is not solely addressed to the intelligence, and Rameau himself claimed, "I try to conceal art with art." The paradox of this music was that it was new, using techniques never known before, but it took place within the framework of old-fashioned forms. Rameau appeared revolutionary to the Lullyistes, disturbed by the complex harmony of his music; and reactionary to the "philosophes," who only paid attention to its content and who either would not or could not listen to the sound it made. The incomprehension he received from his contemporaries stopped Rameau from repeating such daring experiments as the second Trio des Parques in Hippolyte et Aricie, which he was forced to remove after a handful of performances because the singers had been either unable or unwilling to render it correctly.

Les Indes galantes (French: "The Amorous Indies") Opéra-ballet with a prologue and two entrées. Choreography: Louis Dupré. Music: Jean-Philippe Rameau. Libretto: Louis Fuzelier. Sets: Giovanni-Niccolò Servandoni. First performance: 23 August 1735, Théâtre de l'Académie de Musique, Paris. Principals: David Dumoulin, Louis Dupré, M. le Breton, M. Javellier, Marie Sallé.

On 25 November 1725, after French settlers in Illinois sent Chief Agapit Chicagou of the Metchigamea and five other chiefs to Paris, they met with Louis XV, and Chicagou had a letter read pledging allegiance to the crown. They later danced three kinds of dances in the Théâtre-Italien , inspiring Rameau to compose his rondeau Les Sauvages.

The premiere, including only the prologue and the first two of its four entrées (acts), was staged by the Académie Royale de Musique at its theatre in the Palais-Royal in Paris on 23 August 1735, starring the leading singers of the Opéra, Marie Antier, Marie Pélissier, Mlle Errémans, Mlle Petitpas, Denis-François Tribou, Pierre Jélyotte, and Claude-Louis-Dominique Chassé de Chinais, and the dancers Marie Sallé and Louis Dupré. Michel Blondy provided the choreography. The ballet's Premier Menuet was used in the soundtrack of the 2006 film Marie Antoinette.

The premiere met with a lukewarm reception from the audience and, at the third performance, a new entrée was added under the title Les Fleurs. However, this caused further discontent because it showed the hero disguised as a woman, which was viewed either as an absurdity or as an indecency. As a result, it was revised for the first time and this version was staged on 11 September. Notwithstanding these initial problems, the first run went on for twenty-eight performances between 23 August and 25 October, when, however, only 281 livres were grossed, the lowest amount ever collected at the box office by Les Indes galantes.

Nevertheless, when it was mounted again on 10 (or 11) March 1736, a very large audience flocked to the theatre resulting in "prodigious" takings. The entrée des Fleurs was "replaced with a version in which the plot and all the music except the divertissement was new", and a fourth entrée, Les Sauvages, was added, in which Rameau reused the famous air des Sauvages he had composed in 1725 on the occasion of the American Indian chiefs' visit and later included in the Nouvelles Suites de pièces de clavecin (1728).

Now in something approaching a definitive form,[ the opera enjoyed six performances in March and was then mounted again as of 27 December. Further revivals were held in 1743-1744, 1751 and 1761 for a combined total of 185 billings. The work was also performed in Lyon on 23 November 1741, at the theatre of the Jeu de Paume de la Raquette Royale, and again in 1749/1750, at the initiative of Rameau's brother-in-law, Jean-Philippe Mangot. Furthermore, the prologue and individual entrées were often revived separately and given within the composite operatic programs called 'fragments' or 'spectacles coupés' (cut up representations) that: "were almost constant fare at the Palais-Royal in the second half of the eighteenth century". The prologue, Les Incas and Les Sauvages were last given respectively in 1771 (starring Rosalie Levasseur, Gluck's future favourite soprano, in the role of Hebé), 1772 and 1773 (also starring Levasseur as Zima). Thenceforth Les Indes galantes was dropped from the Opéra's repertoire, after having seen almost every artiste of the company in the previous forty years take part in its complete or partial performances.

In the twentieth century the Opéra-Comique presented the first version of the Entrée des Fleurs, with a new orchestration by Paul Dukas, on 30 May 1925, in a production conducted by Maurice Frigara, with Yvonne Brothier as Zaïre, Antoinette Reville as Fatima, Miguel Villabella as Tacmas and Emile Rousseau as Ali.

Finally, Les Indes galantes was revived by the Opéra itself, at the Palais Garnier, with the Dukas orchestration supplemented for the other entrées by Henri Busser, on 18 June 1952: the production, managed by the Opéra's own director, Maurice Lehmann and conducted by Louis Fourestier, was notable for the lavishness of its staging and enjoyed as many as 236 performances by 29 September 1961. The sets were by André Arbus and Jacques Dupont (1909 - 1978) (prologue and finale), Georges Wakhevitch (first entrée), Jean Carzou (second entrée), Henri Raymond Fost (1905-1970) and Maurice Moulène (third entrée) and Roger Chapelain-Midy (fr) (fourth entrée); the choreography was provided by Albert Aveline (1883-1968) (first entrée), Serge Lifar (second and fourth entrées) and Harald Lander (third entrée).

In the 1st Entrée ("The Gracious Turk"), Jacqueline Brumaire sang Emilie, Jean Giraudeau was Valère and Hugo Santana was Osman; the dancers were Mlle Bourgeois and M Legrand. In the 2nd Entrée, ("The Incas of Peru"), Marisa Ferrer was Phani, Georges Noré was don Carlos, and René Bianco was Huascar, while Serge Lifar danced alongside Vyroubova and Bozzoni. The 3rd Entrée, ("The Flowers") had Janine Micheau as Fatima, side by side with Denise Duval as Zaïre. Giraudeau was Tacmas and Jacques Jansen, the famous Pelléas, was Ali, with Mlle Bardin dancing as the Rose, Mlle Dayde as the Butterfly, Ritz as Zéphir and Renault as a Persian. The 4th Entrée, ("The Savages of America"), had Mme Géori Boué, as Zima, with José Luccioni as Adario, Raoul Jobin as Damon and Roger Bourdin as don Alvar. The dancing for this act was executed by Mlles Darsonval, Lafon and Guillot and Messieurs Kalioujny and Efimoff.

Rondeau ?
Rondo and its French part-equivalent, rondeau, are words that have been used in music in a number of ways, most often in reference to a musical form but also to a character type that is distinct from the form.

In rondo form, a principal theme (sometimes called the "refrain") alternates with one or more contrasting themes, generally called "episodes", but also occasionally referred to as "digressions" or "couplets". Possible patterns in the Classical period include: ABA, ABACA, or ABACABA.[2] These are sometimes designated "first rondo", "second rondo", and "third rondo", respectively. The first rondo is distinguished from the three-part song form principally by the fact that at least one of the themes is a song form in itself, but the difference in melodic and rhythmic content of the themes in the rondo form is usually greater than in the song form, and the accompanimental figuration in the parts of the rondo (unlike the song form) is usually contrasted. The number of themes can vary from piece to piece, and the recurring element is sometimes embellished and/or shortened in order to provide for variation.

A Baroque predecessor to the rondo was the ritornello. Ritornello form was used in the fast movements of baroque concertos, and in many baroque vocal and choral works. The entire orchestra (in Italian, tutti) plays the main ritornello theme, while soloists play the intervening episodes. While Rondo form is similar to ritornello form, it is different in that ritornello brings back the subject or main theme in fragments and in different keys, but the rondo brings back its theme complete and in the same key. Cedric Thorpe Davie is one author, however, who considers the ritornello form the ancestor, not of the rondo form, but of the classical concerto form (which also occurs, as a form, in many a classical-era aria.)

A common expansion of rondo form is to combine it with sonata form, to create the sonata rondo form. Here, the second theme acts in a similar way to the second theme group in sonata form by appearing first in a key other than the tonic and later being repeated in the tonic key. Unlike sonata form, thematic development does not need to occur except possibly in the coda.

Forêts paisibles
Jamais un vain désir ne trouble ici nos cœurs.
S'ils sont sensibles,
Fortune, ce n'est pas au prix de tes faveurs.
Dans nos retraites,
Grandeur, ne viens jamais offrir tes faux attraits!
Ciel, tu les as faites
Pour l'innocence et pour la paix.
Jouissons dans nos asiles,
Jouissons des biens tranquilles!
Ah! peut-on être heureux,
Quand on forme d'autres vœux?

Le pélican frisé - Les cervelles sont cuites - 2001
Rock - Ska - Punk

Album: En chair et en os

Wikipédia (DeepL translate)
The Pelican Frisé is a French ska group from the Paris region. Founded in Nanterre in 1992, Le Pélican Frisé has made a name for itself during its many concerts on major stages, cafés-concerts, bars, particularly in France (l'Européen, la Flèche d'Or, Le Fahrenheit...), Switzerland (Montreux Jazz Festival Off, Le Moods, le Abart, Le Chat Noir...), Germany, Italy (Mondiali Antirazzisti)... It is appreciated by rock, ska, punk and other audiences...

The group was founded in 1992 by Hugues alias Rahan on cello, Piéro on guitar, Maryline on drums, Christo on vocals and Julien on bass, but it does not yet resemble the formation as we know it today. The first concert took place in 1994.

In 1995, Polo joined the group instead of viola and Arnauld replaced the former drummer. He will in turn be replaced by Isabelle. This one, is then replaced by Oliv', then it is finally Sylvain, alias "Lapin", who takes over the drums permanently. Julien is replaced by Mathias then Dan, Marie is on the violin. Séverine, alias "Maf", joined them on the keyboard, then Frantz replaced Marie as violinist.

In 2000, the 4 tracks "y'en a d'dans" were released. In 2001, Maf left the band and was replaced by Térence, and Lionel replaced Dan on bass.

It was in 2002 that Piéro, a founding member, left the group and was only replaced in 2005 by JC.

In 2004, the Pelican Frisé recorded the studio album "Ska, Bières et Rock'n'roll". Asozial is probably the most successful album of the band. As in concerts, each piece has its own originality while affirming the coherence of the ensemble.

In 2013, the Pelican Frisé releases a 33t vinyl: "LIVE 1992-2012",

In 2014, Julien returned to the slapped double bass.

In 2016, Matthieu joined the guitar band, replacing JC and at the end of 2016, Julien's counter-bass gradually gave way to Damien's bass.

With a Ska highly influenced by rock'n' roll, punk, reggae, jazz, or Eastern European music, a section of string instruments (cello, viola), a clarinet and a rhythm section (guitars, keyboards, bass, drums), the Curly Pelican flies in the feathers of the codes of conventional ska with a lot of wild bows, for a music sometimes aggressive and energetic, sometimes suggestive by rich colors and melodies and instrumental pieces, with French, Japanese, English, German, Basque accents.... spiced with a squeaky, dry humour.

The band boasts a variety of influences, from reggae from The Aggrolites to noisy rock from The Ex.


Il a des rangers à coques
Le crâne rasé à bloc,
Des clous à sa ceinture,
Et il passerait des journées
Entières à pogoter
Ou encore à skanker.
Son cerveau se désagrège
En douceur, au fil des heures...
---
Elle est mignonne à croquer
On l'aime tous en secret
Mais Dan va la serrer
Elle attend les fins de soirée
Que l'groupe ait tout rangé,
Mais qui roule fait péter
Son cerveau se désagrège
En douceur au fil des heures...
---
Nous, on valse sur la funk,
skanque sur l'acousmatique,
Pogote aux concerts jazz,
Quand on s'ra grands on s'ra punks
Pour chier sur les beatniks
Nos cerveaux se désagrègent
En douceur au fil des heures...

He's got jackboots made of steel
His skull is totally shaven
He's got studs on his belt
And he would spend whole days
Dancing the pogo
Or again dancing the skank
His brain is peacefully dissolving
Over the hours
---
She's drop-dead pretty
We all love her secretly
But Dan is going to do her
She's waiting for the end of the nights
When the group has cleaned up everything
But the one who rolls it passes it around
Her brain is peacefully dissolving
Over the hours
---
We are waltzing to the funk
Dancing the skank to acousmatic music
Dancing the pogo during jazz concerts
When we grow up, we'll be punks
Just to shit on the beatniks
Our brains are peacefully dissolving
Over the hours

Les Ennuis Commencent - La belle saison - 2010
Rockabilly

Wikipédia (DeepL translate)
Les Ennuis commencent is a French rockabilly band from Decazeville. Formed in 1995 by Atomic Ben, the band is inspired by the rock and roll of the 1950s: Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, Gene Vincent, Jerry Lee Lewis, etc.

In the tradition of French rock from Les Dogs or Jezebel Rock, Les Ennuis commencent also claim to be influenced by current bands such as The Raveonettes, The Cramps or Madrugada.


Former leader of the Aficionados, Atomic Ben formed Les Ennuis in 1995 around Patrick Bony and Patrick Vilbert (known as Le Papet). The style is first close to punkabilly with a first album, Tacos and Burgers in 1997. In 1999, double bassist Gus Tattoo replaced bassist Patrick Bony (ex-Impies).

The double bass oriented the band's style towards rockabilly and Les Ennuis Commencent released their second album in this spirit: Boo-Boo-Boo Jam Rockabilly, recorded and produced at the mythical Kaiser Studio. In 2002, at the public's request, they recorded Los Muertos confederados, exclusively in Spanish, which included all the Hispanic songs played on stage (Ay que dolor, Me quedo contigo, Quizas...).

In 2008, early drummer Patrick Vilbert (Papet Boum Boum) retired from the band after 13 years of good and loyal service. Very close to the Bullshitters band, the band recruits almost simultaneously their drummer Hugo le Kid and the leading guitarist Arno KLX. These changes gave a new impetus to the band, which grew to four: two guitars, a double bass and a drum kit. One year later, in 2010, they released their fourth album Superfriends on CD and Vinyl 25 cm. 14 tracks including a tribute to Dominique Laboubée, the single The Soviet Secret Bomb and the cover of Les Dogs La Belle saison. Recorded at the Q.D.C. studio (ELP Records) by Plume and produced by Meryl Jones, it's a fairly raw rock album, recorded in trio at first, with a bold sound and compressed and rearranged at the end with Arno's arrival on the guitars.

Five years later, Les Ennuis found Plume again for their new album Love-o-Rama, a more accomplished project than the previous ones with the recording of about twenty songs to keep only 12 on the final album, available on CD and Vinyl 33 rpm. It contains many collaborations with friends of the band including keyboards by Ben Bridgen (Chernobilly Boogie) or arrangements by the legendary Jezebel Rock. Five tracks that were not selected on the album are available on the Astro Rockabilly Mambo EP.

La haut dans ma chambre
J'attends la belle saison
Je ne sortirai pas sans une bonne raison
Je prolongerai peut-être mon hibernation
Marie Caroline, j'attends la belle saison
La haut dans ma chambre
Je ne vois pas l'horizon
Du temps comme du reste
Je perds toute notion
J'ai toujours quelques projets à l'abandon
Je terminerai peut-être deux ou trois chansons
J'attends et je regarde le ciel
J'attends un rayon de soleil
Et que reverdisse le gazon
J'espère, la haut, j'espère et j'attends
Le premier rayon de soleil
Pour passer à l'action
La haut dans ma chambre
J'attends la belle saison
Marie Caroline, fais toi une raison
Ou alors passes me voir à l'occasion
J'ai la cime des arbres pour tout horizon
Ici le ciel est gris de toutes façons
Marie Caroline, j'attends la belle saison

Tryo - L'hymne de nos campagnes - 1998
Pop Reggae, Chanson alternative

Album: Mamagubida (RYM: 3,15/5)

Wikipédia:
Tryo is a French-language 'unplugged' ska acoustic band, popular in Europe and Quebec, with three French guitarists, a percussionist, and a producer: Guizmo, Christophe Mali, Manu Eveno, Daniel "Danielito" Bravo and Bibou.

Tryo are popular in France partly due to their politically charged lyrics, whilst also showing a fun side with a range of humorous songs, especially in live performances.

They take a left wing stance, criticising various French politicians such as Charles Pasqua (named in corruption scandals concerning suburban low cost housing or HLM) and Jean-Marie Le Pen and world leaders (George W. Bush, for example) in their music. The band has a "tolerant" view on cannabis, demonstrated by "La Main Verte" from the Mamagubida album. Drug references are reduced in their later albums.

They have sold 900,000 albums. They had their 10-year anniversary in 2005, followed by a nationwide tour. Tryo have four studio albums, a double CD live album and two live DVDs.

Band members were also active in independent work. Christophe Mali released a solo album Je vous emmène in April 2006. Guitarist and songwriter Guizmo was part of the band Pause.

In August 2012 they released new album called Ladilafé, a tribute to Patricia Bonnetaud who died in February 2012. This is the first album featuring DJ Catman.

Si tu es né dans une cité HLM
Je te dédicace ce poème
En espérant qu'au fond de tes yeux ternes
Tu puisses y voir un petit brin d'herbe
Et les mans faut faire la part des choses
Il est grand temps de faire une pause
De troquer cette vie morose
Contre le parfum d'une rose

Refrain :
C'est l'hymne de nos campagnes
De nos rivières, de nos montagnes
De la vie man, du monde animal
Crie-le bien fort, use tes cordes vocales !

Pas de boulot, pas de diplômes
Partout la même odeur de zone
Plus rien n'agite tes neurones
Pas même le shit que tu mets dans tes cônes
Va voir ailleurs, rien ne te retient
Va vite faire quelque chose de tes mains
Ne te retourne pas ici tu n'as rien
Et sois le premier à chanter ce refrain

Refrain

Assieds-toi près d'une rivière
Écoute le coulis de l'eau sur la terre
Dis-toi qu'au bout, hé ! il y a la mer
Et que ça, ça n'a rien d'éphémère
Tu comprendras alors que tu n'es rien
Comme celui avant toi, comme celui qui vient
Que le liquide qui coule dans tes mains
Te servira à vivre jusqu'à demain matin !

Refrain

Assieds-toi près d'un vieux chêne
Et compare le à la race humaine
L'oxygène et l'ombre qu'il t'amène
Mérite-t-il les coups de hache qui le saigne ?
Lève la tête, regarde ses feuilles
Tu verras peut-être un écureuil
Qui te regarde de tout son orgueil
Sa maison est là, tu es sur le seuil...

Refrain

Peut-être que je parle pour ne rien dire
Que quand tu m'écoutes tu as envie de rire
Mais si le béton est ton avenir
Dis-toi que c'est la forêt qui fait que tu respires
J'aimerais pour tous les animaux
Que tu captes le message de mes mots
Car un lopin de terre, une tige de roseau
Servira la croissance de tes marmots ! (x2)

Refrain

Cliché - Hélicon - 2013
Chanson / pop

Album: Cliché

Microqlima:
Capture a few moments, capture those moments, enchant the atmosphere and capture the light. Take snapshots, expose the ephemeral, fix the imaginary, reveal clarity.
And with a simple click, you can discover Cliché.

The songs of the elegant Bordeaux quintet are seen as an encounter between Air, Serge Gainsbourg and Alain Bashung, as poetic, atmospheric and captivating snapshots. "Life is short and happiness ephemeral, that's why Cliché wants to lock it in a song box, to revive it with every breath of Helicon" (Le Mouv).

Recently noticed on Parisian dates at Cabaret Sauvage, Palais de Tokyo and for the Inrocks Lab selections, Cliché affirms a welcome singularity in the French pop landscape.

Oui j'ai théorisé sur les ailes des papillons
Qui se sont envolés par milliers par millions...
J'ai écouté crisser l'aiguille sur le sillon
Qui m'envoyait valser parmi nous et les sons

Hélicon
Tu es la bouche dorée
Où crépitent les avions qui me font respirer
Hélicon...

Oui j'ai déambulé entre les roues des camions
En sifflotant des verres siphonnant des bidons
J'ai senti s'échapper l'air de mes poumons
Qui revenait frapper à grand coup d'hélicon

Hélicon
Tu es la bouche dorée
Où crépitent les avions qui me font respirer
Hélicon


J'ai aperçu une lune entre cinq fils électriques
J'ai secoué la tête ça faisait des mélodies
La la la la ré si si do si do si la
Un air de si de la des fins fonds galactiques

Hélicon
Tu es la bouche dorée
Où crépitent les avions qui me font respirer

Cléa Vincent - Château perdu - 2014
Synthpop / Pop

Cléa Vincent is a French singer-songwriter, born in Paris in the Île-de-France region.
She began her career by performing on the Parisian open stages. Spotted by artistic director Jan Ghazi, she signed with Polydor in 20121. She then produced her first album with the help of the singer Séverin. However, the label finally decides not to edit it.

In 2014, she released her first EP No mais oui on the independent label Midnight Special Records. The video clip of his single Château perdu was a great success on the Youtube site, after which the M6 channel agreed to broadcast it.

Retain my desire, his first album, was released in 2016. This one is well received by most critics and the public. At the end of 2016, she was invited to perform on the stage of the program Quotidien on the TMC channel. This is followed by a tour in France and Europe.
T'as touché au château perdu
Des contes de fées qu'on ne lit plus
T'as le feu en toi, il me consume
T'as touché au château perdu
Des contes de fées qu'on ne lit plus
T'as le feu en toi, il me consume
A chaque fois j'ai beau m'arroser
Le coeur d'eau bleue rien n'y fait
Tu m'as émue

[Refrain]
Château perdu
Des contes de fées
Des soirs d'hiver
Je sais que tu, reviendras plus
Pour me parler

[Pont]
T'as le feu en toi
Il me consume
A chaque fois
J'ai beau m'arroser
Le cœur d'eau bleue, rien n'y fait
Tu m'as émue

[Refrain]
Château perdu
Des contes de fées
Des soirs d'hiver
Je sais que tu, reviendras plus
Pour me parler

You touched the lost castle
Fairy tales that no longer reads
You have fire in you, it consumes me
You touched the lost castle
Fairy tales that no longer reads
You have fire in you, it consumes me
Every time I water myself
The heart of blue water nothing helps
You moved me

Lost castle
Fairy tales
Winter evenings
I know you will come back more
To talk to me

You have fire in you
He is consuming me
Everytime
I water myself
The heart of blue water, nothing helps
You moved me

Lost castle
Fairy tales
Winter evenings
I know you will come back more
To talk to me

Etienne Charry - Par ici la monnaie - 1999
Indie Pop, Lo-Fi Indie, Chanson

Albums : 36 erreurs

Wiki (DeepL translate)
Étienne Charry, born on November 5, 1962, is a French composer and visual artist.

Co-founder of the group Oui Oui with Michel Gondry, Gilles Chapat and Nicolas Dufournet, Étienne Charry recorded two albums under the Tricatel label: 36 errors in 1999 and Aube radiieuse serpents en flammes in 2002.

He has made tours accompanied by automatons of his own manufacture. For several years, he has been composing music collections (Trous d'eau, Salon cerveau, etc.) that he proposes as unique pieces. These collections have given rise to numerous developments, exhibitions, listening sessions in art venues (Mac Val, Centre Pompidou, Galerie Agnès B, etc.), international festivals (Montreal, Terni, Zagreb, Paris, etc.). These music collections have provided a starting point for inventing new ways of distributing music and, above all, creating the ideal means of approaching an ever more personal expression.

Étienne Charry frequently collaborates with other artists such as the Grand Magasin company (François Hifler, Pascale Murtin, Bettina Atala), directors Michel Gondry, Olivier Babinet, visual artists Pierrick Sorin and Nicolas Darrot or creators Kuntzel and Deygas. He also composes for television (Le Dessous des cartes, Cut Up (Arte), Mensomadaire, Working Girls (Canal+)).

Some recent creations:

- Les Synchrotypes: a fictional group for which Étienne Charry composed a repertoire and then asked 25 creators to propose the physical appearance that everyone imagines of this group. This project has resulted in an exhibition and a book-disc by Les Requins Marteau.

- Music à la Carte: musical performance where 350 pieces of music from Étienne Charry's repertoire are offered to the public, like dishes from a menu of their choice. Each piece is the subject of a specific visual accompaniment. This system was presented in September 2012 as part of the Printemps de septembre festival in Toulouse.

- Catalogue: "I invented a music label of which I am the director, the graphic designer, the press officer and the artists, this label is called Catalogue. »

This very real affirmation is the starting point of a vast project including music, image, staging and new ways of proposing music. Thirty artists are part of this imaginary label and their music is very real. If the primary motivation of this project is to compose music and to propose it in an innovative and artistically stimulating way, it is also a pretext to dive into a certain popular music and use the codes, conventions, the infinity of cultural references that compose it in complete freedom as the vast and delightful vocabulary of a folklore whose roots are buried in each of us. This project gives rise to exhibitions, playback performances and many other developments, including the incarnation of these invented artists.


Par ici la monnaie, quelqu’un que je connais
Fait justement collection de jolis biffetons, ceux qui ont le plus de zéros sont ceux qu’il préfère.
Comme des millions de gens c’est au supermarché
Que je chasse, que je pèche, que je me dépêche.
J’apprends le dictionnaire à l’endroit à l’envers,
Ça n’rends pas intelligent, juste un peu savant mais quel avantage pour briller en société.
L’animal de feutrine qui rit dans la vitrine
avec son air imbécile me remplit de joie, et c’est grâce à lui que je survis.
Comme des millions de gens c’est au supermarché
Que je chasse, que je pèche, que je me dépêche.

Madame Guillotine - Cao Bang - 2017
Heavy Metal / Hard Rock

Album: Politik Circus

Wikipédia (DeepL translate)
Madame Guillotine is a French heavy metal and hard rock band from Argentan, in Lower Normandy. It was formed in 1993 by brothers Yannick and Jean-Marie Embareck, and Sébastien Sillanfest.

They are authors, composers and performers of their music; imbued with punk sounds, it is in line with text groups seeking to denounce social inequalities. In its course, the group has more than 600 concerts in Europe, and provides the first parts of formation, such as Loudbast, Killers or Pleymo, but in another style, MG opens for Manau, Soldat Louis or Tri Yann.

Madame Guillotine was trained in 1993 in Argentan, Basse Normandie, by brothers Yannick and Jean-Marie Embareck, respectively drummer and singer-guitarist, and Sébastien Sillanfest, bassist. Three years after its creation, the group released its very first independent album, entitled Hard Life, in audio cassette format. In 1998, they released a new independent album entitled Du sang sur la scène.

In 2000, the group released a third independent album La sous France, which will be of interest to the Mo'Zam Production label, and they will release their fourth album, Croisade in 2001. Two years later, in 2003, they released their fifth album, Kaos A-D, on the Brennus Music label. A few years later, the band signed to Konklav Records and released the album L'Esprit du mal in 2007. In 2008, they released their album 1936.

In 2011, the group will release the live album entitled Live - In Memory of Our Fathers. It includes the closing of the 1936 Tour. Their new album, entitled Racines, released on July 14, 2013 (date winked at the revolution), is already considered as the album of maturity. In June 2014, Mrs Guillotine released her new DVD entitled Mrs Guillotine, 20 ans de combat. History of an atypical group.

In 2015 their new album Article 35 will be released. On December 5, 2015, Madame Guillotine performed at the Quai des Arts in Argentan, alongside the Vulcain group.

Johnny Hallyday - J'en parlerai au diable - 2018
Rock

Album: Mon pays, c'est l'amour.

Allmusic biography:
https://www.allmusic.com/artist/johnny- ... /biography


Wikipédia (DeepL translate)
Mon pays c'est l'amour is Johnny Hallyday's 51st and latest studio album (Warner's 7th). The recording of this disc, which began in the spring of 2017 and continued in the fall in Paris a few weeks before his death, remained unfinished. Directed by Yodelice and mixed by Bob Clearmountain, the album was released posthumously on October 19, 2018.


On October 21, 2016 (the day of the release of his live album Rester Vivant Tour), Johnny Hallyday announced on RTL radio that he is starting with Yodelice and Yarol Poupaud to prepare a new album, which he hopes to record in 2017 in Nashville and Memphis.

In March 2017, Johnny Hallyday confirmed that he had lung cancer. It was in this context that a few days later, the singer began the first working sessions of his 51st opus, while continuing his treatment in Los Angeles. He recorded three songs: Je ne suis qu'un homme, Un enfant du siècle and Pardonne-moi.

At the same time (in Los Angeles), Johnny Hallyday recorded a duet with Eddy Mitchell for his album La Même Tribu (the album was released in November 2017 and the duo C'est un rocker was the last track released during Johnny Hallyday's lifetime).

In June and July, Hallyday is on stage with Jacques Dutronc and Eddy Mitchell for the Les Vieilles Canailles tour.

In September, the singer returned to France, where he began a new treatment while continuing to produce his next album at the Guillaume Tell studio in Suresnes, where he recorded his voice on the rhythmic bases recorded in Los Angeles during the summer.

His state of health worsening, he was hospitalized for respiratory distress in November. Johnny Hallyday, who returned home after several days in hospital, died at his home in Marnes-la-Coquette on December 5, 2017.

Despite the illness, Johnny Hallyday was able to record about ten tracks out of the twelve initially planned, his 51st album remains unfinished.

In January 2018, Yodelice was in Los Angeles to finalize the album. He is assisted by Yarol Poupaud and Yvan Cassar, the latter recording the strings in London.

While the album is being mixed in Los Angeles in February, Laura Smet and David Hallyday, who jointly filed a lawsuit to challenge their father's testamentary provisions that disinherit them for the sole benefit of his wife Laeticia Hallyday, are claiming a right of scrutiny over the album. Johnny Hallyday's son states (through his lawyer) that "Respectful of the work started by his father, he would consider it inappropriate to deliver to the public under the name of Johnny Hallyday a work that would not be entirely his own". A right of inspection that their father's wife does not wish to grant them.

Between media and judicial turmoil, the release of the album, a time announced as planned in the spring and as to be called "I promise you", is postponed to the fall of 2018. Its release was finally announced (in September by the record company), for October 19, 2018 under the title Mon pays c'est l'amour. It contains eleven tracks, ten songs out of the twelve initially planned and one instrumental.

The first single, J'en parlerai au diable, was released the same day as the album. The clip is directed by François Goetghebeur, illustrated by images shot during the artist's road trip in 2016 on Route 66. The black and white photo of the album is signed Dimitri Coste during a session for the cover of the album L'attente, released in 2012.


Si jamais on me dit que j’ai trahi
Alors je ne bronche pas
Si jamais on me dit que j’ai menti
Alors je ne relève pas
Car le jour viendra de répondre de mes actes
Et je ne me cacherai pas
Oui le jour viendra de respecter le pacte
Et lui seul m’entendra

J’en parlerai au diable
Si l’heure vient à sonner
De m’asseoir à sa table
Et dire ma vérité
J’en parlerai au diable
Il saura m’écouter
L’innocent, le coupable
L’homme que j’ai été

Si jamais on me dit ça tu le mérites
Je l’ai sûrement cherché
Que j’ai trop flirté avec les limites
Je ne vais pas le nier
On sort de la piste, on reprend espoir
On avance plus ou moins droit
Et c’est en soliste que je lui dirai mon histoire
Et j’assumerai mes choix

J’en parlerai au diable
Si l’heure vient à sonner
De m’asseoir à sa table
Et dire ma vérité
J’en parlerai au diable
Il saura m’écouter
L’innocent le coupable
L’homme que j’ai été

If they ever say I betrayed
I remain unmoved.
If they ever say I lied
I don't raise it.
For the day will come to account for my actions,
and I won't hide.
Yeah, the day will come to honour the pact,
and he alone shall hear me.

I'll let the devil know when my time comes
to sit at his table and say my truth.
I'll let the devil know, and he'll listen to
the innocent, the culprit, the man I was.

If they ever say "serves you right!"
I surely had it coming.
I won't deny that
I pushed the limits too far.
You're thrown off the track, then you regain hope,
you plough ahead in a more or less straight line.
And it's as a soloist1 that I will tell him my story,
and I will own up to what I've done.

I'll let the devil know when my time comes
to sit at his table and say my truth.
I'll let the devil know, and he'll listen to
the innocent, the culprit, the man I was.

I'll let the devil know, and he'll listen to
the innocent, the culprit, the man I was.

I'll let the devil know when my time comes
to sit at his table and say my truth.
I'll let the devil know, and he'll listen to
the innocent, the culprit, the man I was.

I'll let the devil know.

Daniel Zimmermann - Flying Pachydermes - 2013 - Jazz
Jazz

Album : Bone Machine

Wikipédia (DeepL translate)
Daniel Zimmermann, born on January 2, 1974 in Châtenay-Malabry, is a French trombonist, arranger and composer.

Having begun studying trombone at the age of eight, following the discovery of Scott Joplin, Louis Armstrong and Jack Teagarden, he spent his formative years skimming cafés-concerts and so-called "contemporary music" scenes with his funk groups, one dedicated to original compositions, Duckbill, the other, Lady Groove, covering the "great" of soul music.

After having begun to learn improvisation and arrangement in this context, he met Guy Figlionlos, who was his teacher for three years, and then joined the Conservatoire national supérieur de musique et de danse de Paris in 1997. He performs regularly for a few years with the electro-pop satirical song group "Les Saint-Sauveurs". Then, in full salsa mode, he played with the groups Mambomania, Caravana, Azucar, Mosquito, Perco Bebey and later with Sergent Garcia (between 2001 and 2004).

After a one-year tour with the reggae group Mister Gang, he definitively left the CNSM in 2000 to embark on a year and a half of tour with Claude Nougaro, a show that is reflected in a double live album and a DVD recorded at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées in 2001.

At the same time, he is in charge of advancing his own projects: the group Spice Bones won second prize in the National Jazz Competition in La Défense in 1999 and recorded an album in 2001. Le Zimmermann / de Pourquery Quintet won first prize for orchestra at the Concours de La Défense in 20021 and recorded two albums (2000 and 2003), before moving on to a more rock version, DPZ, with an album released in March 2009, crowned with a "shock" by the monthly Jazzman, and elected "disc of the year" by Jazz Magazine.

He plays with Fred Pallem's Le Sacre du tympan, in trio with guitarist Manu Codjia and accordionist Vincent Peirani. He is a member of Manu Dibango's "Maraboutik Band", Simon-Spang Hansen's quintet, Karim Ziad's gnawa-fusion project, Jacques Vidal's septet and Lebanese saxophonist Toufic Farroukh's sextet.

He released his first album under his name in May 2013, entitled Bone Machine, a record unanimously acclaimed by critics: monthly Fip selection as well as Classica/Express record of the year. Following this, he was nominated for the 2014 Jazz Victories.

He has played in large ensembles with Wynton Marsalis, Franck Tortiller's ONJ, Andy Emler Megaoctet, Laurent Cugny Big Band Lumière, Michel Legrand, François Jeanneau Pandemonium, Ivan Jullien, Ping Machine by Frédéric Maurin, Antoine Hervé, Gérard Badini, Ricky Ford, Jean-Loup Longnon, Stéphane Guillaume, the Big Bands of Bertrand Chapelier and Laurent Mignard, Gilles Réa and Ludovic de Preissac, the Franco-German orchestra of Albert Mangelsdorff and Jean-Marie Guédon... In a smaller group, he has performed with Archie Shepp, Sylvain Beuf, Christophe Monniot, Jean-Marie Ecay, Paco Séry, Élisabeth Kontomanou, Nicolas Folmer, Sixun, David Linx, Jef Sicard, Ozma, Frédéric Monino...

In the field of world music, he has played or recorded with Étienne M'Bappé, Tânia Maria, Mayra Andrade, Klezmer Nova, Meddy Gerville, Toufic Farroukh, Tony Chasseur, Najat Aâtabou... In the world of song and contemporary music, he has worked for Metronomy, Sophie Hunger, Johnny Hallyday, Jacques Higelin, Kent, Bernard Lavilliers, Paris Combo, Jean-Louis Aubert, Patrick Bruel, Lou Doillon, -M-, Christophe Maé...

He has played with the Ensemble de Cuivres de Paris, as well as in the contemporary creation of the Louvre Museum "Larmes de Clown", by Frédéric Verrières. He also composed and performed music with Maxime Fougères for the film The Scarlett Letter during a premiere at the Musée d'Orsay. He has also recorded many film scores, as well as for television and advertising.

Nominated for the 2014 Jazz Awards (category "revelations"), he previously won first prize as a soloist at the National Jazz Competition of La Défense in 20021, and was part of the "Jazz à Juan Révélations", category "instrumental jazz" in 2006.

Para One - Dudun dun - 2006 - Electro
Electro, French House, Electro House, Electronic, Ambient,

Album: Epiphanie (RYM: 3.02/5)

Artist Biography by Jason Birchmeier (Allmusic)

Perhaps best known for his affiliation with the popular French rap group TTC, Para One is an alias of French electro producer Jean-Baptiste de Laubier, whose musical style is deeply rooted in golden-age hip-hop. Born in 1979 in Orleans, France, de Laubier first grew passionate about hip-hop after hearing Public Enemy, N.W.A, and the Native Tongues during the late '80s. He joined his first hip-hop group in 1993 but didn't break into the industry as a producer until 2000, when his productions began showing up on mixtapes. Around this same time he became affiliated with TTC and collaborated with them on their debut album, Ceci N'est Pas un Disque (2002), on Big Dada Recordings.

De Laubier made his solo debut as Para One in 2003 on the label Institubes with the Beat Down EP, featuring TTC on the title track. He continued collaborating with TTC, producing much of their second album, Bâtards Sensibles (2004), which spawned the hit single "Dans le Club" and proved to be their commercial breakthrough, released by Big Dada Recordings in partnership with V2 Music France. Meanwhile, de Laubier continued his solo career, releasing the EP Clubhoppn (2005) and the full-length album Epiphanie (2006) on Institubes, the latter release spawning the hit single "Dudun-Dun," which was prominently remixed by MSTRKRFT and Boys Noize. Besides his own productions, he began fielding high-profile remix requests (e.g., Daft Punk's "The Prime Time of Your Life," Ellen Allien's "Down") and collaborated with TTC on their third album, 3615 (2006); moreover, his 2003-2005 collaboration with fellow TTC collaborator Tacteel -- a co-founder of Institubes and a hip-hop/electro producer in his own right -- on the live performance project FuckALoop resulted in the lengthy digital-only retrospective release The Early Aughties (2007). De Laubier also dabbled in the world of film, producing the Naissance des Pieuvres soundtrack, released by Institubes in 2007.

Christine Sèvres - Tu es venu - 1970
Chanson

Wiki (DeepL translate)
Christine Sèvres, the stage name of Jacqueline Amélie Estelle Boissonnet, is a French singer born on 25 March 1931 in the 5th arrondissement of Paris and died on 1 November 1981 (at the age of 50) in Marseille. She was Jean Ferrat's first wife and then his companion.

She was 8 years old when her parents split up. She became a runaway teenager who devoted herself to rhyme and dreamed of a career in the theatre.

She enrolled in a drama class under the pseudonym Christine "Sèvres", because she lived across the street from the Sèvres-Babylone metro station at the time.

To earn a living, she was successively a saleswoman, model, taxi-girl, bartender, and even... a portrait painter on the terraces of the cafés of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, an industrial designer, a writer's secretary, then... an office employee for more than 2 years.

She made her debut in December 1956 at the cabaret Le Cheval d'or, "le cabaret de la Mouffe".

In 1959, she recorded three songs: The Prenuptial March, The Aureole and The Clown. They appeared in January 1960, on a collective 33 rpm record: Paris, rive gauche. In October 1962, his first super 45 rpm was released by Polydor. In November 1963, on tour, she became the American star of Georges Brassens, then again in November 1964, at Bobino; Jean Ferrat was incognito behind the scenes at Bobino.

In June 1967, Christine Sèvres and Jean Ferrat went to Cuba. Jean Ferrat gives about ten galas on the island.

In December 1967, she went on tour again with Georges Brassens.

His first 30 cm album was released by CBS on May 10, 1968: it went unnoticed, behind the events of the month, which occupied all the news.

In January 1969, with Jean Ferrat, she recorded a duet starting with a sung dialogue (their only duet): La Matinée (lyrics by Henri Gougaud, music by Jean Ferrat). He will be on Ferrat's new album, which is released in March of the same year. From February 7 to March 16, 1969, she performed as an American star from Serge Reggiani to Bobino.

His second album was released on February 9, 1970, still on CBS. It is followed by two singles from the album.

She plays one last time at L'Écluse, then she abandons the song.

Since 1964, she and Jean Ferrat have lived in the town of Antraigues-sur-Volane (near Vals-les-Bains) in the Ardèche. In 1974, they decided to take refuge there. Her daughter, Véronique (born in 1953), now of age, followed them to Antraigues (and eventually settled further south in Aubenas): she was also an actress and singer.

Christine Sèvres now devotes herself to painting. In the summer of 1975, she exhibited her paintings, along with other artists, in Antraigues. She returned briefly to Paris in 1980 to re-record La Matinée with her husband. Her beautiful voice had remained intact.

Driven to Marseille to receive medical care, Christine Sèvres died of cancer on November 1, 1981. She was only 50 years old. She is buried in the cemetery of Antraigues-sur-Volane, not far from Jean Ferrat's tomb.


En ce temps-là j'errais de clocher en clocher
J'enviais les pigeons qui savaient où nicher
Auprès du Vert Galant, je m'endormais dans l'herbe
Mes vingt ans dans Paris cherchaient je ne sais quoi
Et quand la nuit venait me prendre dans ses bras
J'avais peur de mon ombre et la bravais, superbe

Et puis, tu es venu
Vois, le monde est en gerbe

J'avais pour tout bagage une paire de bas
Une robe trop longue et le panier du chat
Serré contre mon cœur comme une rose tendre
Je claquais à tous vents mes vingt ans au beffroi
J'étais sarment dans l'âtre et la flamme à la fois
Mes lèvres en gardaient toujours un goût de cendre

Et puis, tu es venu
Vois comme mes mains tremblent

Je prenais les amants comme on prend le métro
Lorsqu'on est lassé d'avoir attendu trop
Un taxi dans la rue et, qu'il vente ou qu'il neige
J'attendais de les voir s'endormir contre moi
Puis je déménageais à la cloche de bois
Les chiens de l'aube errants me suivaient en cortège

Et puis, tu es venu
Vois, il fait beau, il neige

Je ne sais pas moi-même au juste qui j'étais
Etais-je folle ou sage ou les deux ? Je ne sais
Tant je cognais partout mes ailes malhabiles
Mais je sais aujourd'hui, mais je sais qu'avec toi
Je suis restée semblable à celle d'autrefois
Qui ne rêvait que d'être à quelque chose utile

Puisque tu es venu
Vois, tout devient possible

Back then I was wandering from place to place,1
envious of the pigeons who knew where to nest.
I fell asleep on the grass in Henry IV2 square.
My roaring twenties sought I don't know what,
and when night came to take me in its arms,
I was afraid of my own shadow, and yet stood up magnificently to it.

And then you came
See, the world is in full bloom3

My only possessions were a pair of stockings,
a too long dress and the cat's basket
that I clasped to my heart like a tender rose.
I was conspicuously squandering my youth4
I was both the wine shoot and the fire in the heart,
that left a constant taste of ashes on my lips.

And then you came
See how my hands are shaking

I had lovers like you ride the subway
when you've had enough of waiting
for a cab in the street and, regardless of the weather,
I waited for them to fall asleep against me
then resumed my vagrant life5
Dawn dogs wandered behind me like a parade.

And then you came
See, nice weather, it's snowing

I don't know myself who I really was.
Whas I a fool or wise or both? I couldn't say,
what with me banging my clumsy wings around.
Still I know that today, with you,
I remained true to who I was before,
when my only wish was to be of some use.

Since you came,
see, everything is possible now.

1. "clocher" is a church bell tower, but "la cloche" means to live as vagrant. For some obscure reason, the bell is a symbol for vagrancy in French. Even "clochard" (tramp) derives from it.
2. le Vert Galant was a nickname of French king Henry the 4th. There is a famous square with that name in Paris. "vert galant" means something like "old womanizer" so the line sounds like she would be a sugar daddy's girl while she actually just sleeps in a square Regular smile
3. "en gerbe" refers to harvested wheat tied in sheafs, but the idea is the same
4. "beffroi"(belfry) is mostly there for the rhyme, but "au beffroi" evokes a conspicuous attitude, like shouting something from the rooftops. The line can evoke two images based on two meanings of "claquer", either "burn through your money" or "flap" like a flag. Either she dillapidated her youth (perched on a belfry!), or she was like a piece of laundry (hung from a belfry!) flapping aimlessly in the wind.
5. "déménager à la cloche de bois" ("moving into the wooden bell inn") means living in the street.

La Maison Tellier - Sur un volcan - 2013
Chanson, folk

Single.

Artist Biography by Olivier Duboc (Allmusic)

La Maison Tellier were founded in Normandie in 2004 by Helmut Tellier and Raoul Tellier (aka Yannick Marais and Sebastien Miel), who were quickly joined by numerous other musicians to form a wider false brotherhood whose name winks at Guy de Maupassant's short story La Maison Tellier.
Using various types of traditional instruments (from banjo to Dobro), the band created a personal kind of folk-rock, sung in French as well as in English, showcasing many different musical influences (mainly American) but blending them into a very recognizable homogeneous blend. Their self-titled debut album, released in 2006, already contained most of their obsessions. The record featured an efficient reworked version of Rage Against the Machine's "Killing in the Name," which, alongside "La Chambre Rose" and with help from Radio Nova, earned them some attention. Their second album, Second Souffle, was released in 2007, featuring music in the same second-degree folk-rock vein as their first.
Dansez, nous dansons souvent
Au bord du cratère
Sur un volcan

A quoi sert notre venue
Oh dansez dansez
Tout est perdu

Secouez secouez-moi tout ça
Le charme discret
Le calme plat

A quoi sert notre venue
Oh dansez dansez
Tout est perdu

Dansez, le tigre a faim
Dansez, vous n'avez plus rien
Dansez, petit bout de chair
Dansez, au bord du cratère

En l'air
Nous ne craindrons pas
Ni la poussière
Ni le magma

A quoi sert notre venue
Oh dansez dansez
Tout est perdu

Dansez, le tigre a faim
Dansez, vous n'avez plus rien
Dansez, petit bout de chair
Dansez, au bord du cratère

Dansez, le tigre a faim
Dansez, vous n'avez plus rien
Dansez, petit bout de chair
Dansez, au bord du cratère

Dansez
Dansez
Dansez
Dansez

Christophe Julien - Au revoir là-haut - Bon voyage, soldat Maillard - 2017 - OST

Christophe Julien is an artist constantly in search of innovative and original collaborations. He’s part of that new generation of film music composers who need to explore a cinematographic universe as varied as the universe itself. This is what has pushed him, and pushes him, to constantly renew and develop his writing, while still remaining ardently at the service of the directors with whom he is working.

The palette is large. His compositions for both Cinema and Television have given him the opportunity to work with symphonic orchestras on historical films like Albert Dupontel’s « Au Revoir là Haut », and also Dupontel’s comedies, « Neuf Mois Ferme » and « Le Vilain » as well as Gérard Pautonnier’s « Grand Froid ». He’s created soundtracks for more ‘intimate’ films like Eric Bernard’s « Le Goût Des Merveilles », Richard Berry’s « Nos Femmes », Josiane Balasko’s « Demi-Soeur » and Carmen Chaplin’s « Tryst In Panama », and even composed for international films like Irena Salina’s highly praised documentary « Flow, For Love Of Water ».


For many years he has worked very closely and faithfully with the award winning Iranian director, Nader Takmil Homayoun, working on the films, « Tehroun, » « Iran, Une Revolution Cinématographique » and « Les Pieds Dans Le Tapis ». For this last film, Christophe Julien received the prize for best original music at the Luchon Film Festival and at the French Radio and Televison Awards Ceremony 2016, which he received from the iconic film composer, Jean-Claude Petit.

Guy Marchand - Destinée - 1982

Guy Marchand (born 22 May 1937) is a French actor, musician and singer. He is best known for his role as the main character in the French police procedural series Nestor Burma.

Destinée is a French song, performed by Guy Marchand, written by Philippe Adler and Guy Marchand and composed by Vladimir Cosma. It was originally created for the film Les Sous-doués en vacances released in 1982. This song was also used the same year in the movie Santa Claus is a scumbag during a slow scene between Pierre Mortez (Thierry Lhermitte) and Katia (Christian Clavier).

In Les Sous-doués en vacances, two characters, Memphis (played by Guy Marchand) and the inventor of the love computer (played by Jean-Paul Farré), are shown composing the song. In the scene, the music is already finished and the lyrics have yet to be written. Each version is tested on guinea pigs using the love computer. One version has the lyrics "Despair, I see everything in black, it's going to rain", another one "On the beach, I'll go pick you some shells". Finally, the most successful version is the one with the words: "Destiny, we were both destined". A Japanese version is also included in the film, the author of which is Memphis' personal assistant, Claudine (played by Grace de Capitani).

On May 22, 2011, Guy Marchand, then a guest on the show C'est quoi ce bordel ? on Europe 1, revealed that the music for this song was composed by taking notes from Joe Dassin's song L'Été indien in reverse. For the purposes of the film Les Sous-doués en vacances, Guy Marchand wanted a song that went against the slows of the time. That's why L'Été indien, released seven years earlier, was at the origin of the melody of Destinée. Cosma and Marchand thought they were writing a song that was both cheesy and humorous and would only serve to illustrate the film. They were far from imagining that they had written a hit and that it would be associated with Guy Marchand. This frustrates the singer even today, who is the performer of several other songs composed with less casualness.
Destinée,
On était tous les 2 destinés
A voir nos chemins se rencontrer
A s'aimer sans demander pourquoi
Toi et moi

Destinée,
Inutile de fuir ou de lutter
C'est écrit dans notre destinée
Tu ne pourras pas y échapper
C'est gravé

L'avenir,
Malgré nous doit toujours devenir
Tous nos désirs d'amour inespérés, imaginés, inavoués
Dans la vie,
Aucun jour n'est pareil tu t'ennuies
Tu attends le soleil impatiemment, éperdument, passionnément

Destinée,
Depuis longtemps j'avais deviné
Qu'à toi l'amour allait m'enchaîner
Quand je rencontrerai quelque part,
Ton regard

Destinée,
Où es tu toi qui m'est destinée
Si jamais vous vous reconnaissez
Je voudrais vous entendre crier
M'appeler

Destinée,
Encore un fois le cœur déchiré
Je suis un clown démaquillé
Le grand rideau viens de se baisser
Sur l'été

Destinée,
On était tous les 2 destinés
A voir nos chemins se rencontrer
A s'aimer sans demander pourquoi
Toi et moi

Destinée,
On était tous les 2 destinés
A voir nos chemins se rencontrer
A s'aimer sans demander pourquoi
Toi et moi

Destinée
Inutile de fuir ou de lutter
C'est écrit dans notre destinée
Tu ne pourras pas y échapper
C'est gravé

Destinée
Encore un fois le cœur déchiré
Je suis un clown démaquillé
Le grand rideau viens de se baisser
Sur l'été

Charlotte Leslie - Les filles, c'est fait pour faire l'amour - 1967
Chanson, Yéyé

Wikipédia (DeepL translate)

Charlotte Leslie, whose real name is Rosetta Aiello, alias Rosa Borg or Catherine Alfa born on December 18, 1945 in Gabès, Tunisia, is a French singer.

The youngest of an Italian family of ten children, she spent her childhood in Lens and left school at the age of 13 to work in a clothing workshop. At the age of 19, she won with her song "Le ciel d'Italie" written by her father the annual springboard organized in her city by La Voix du Nord and sponsored by Lucien Morisse of AZ Records.

In 1964, she recorded her first two albums under the pseudonym Catherine Alfa: "Tu es pris au trage" and "Tu m'as trahie", which regularly appear on Europe 1.

In 1966, she then signed with Polydor to release several 45T EPs under Charlotte Leslie's new nickname. The first one, entitled Les filles c'est fait pour faire l'amour, was shocked and deprogrammed by several radio stations. She then released "L'hiver en été" (1967) and "Poupée sans âme" and toured extensively: throughout France with Claude François, in Belgium with Adamo and as a headliner in Eastern Europe.

After the release of "Mr. Harisson" in 1970, she retired from the song before trying to return briefly, in the early 1980s, under the pseudonym Rosa Borg (her mother's maiden name) but without much success.

Lisa Urt - La voix du bonheur - 2015
Blues, Jazz, soul, chanson

Album: Frenchy & Jazz

A signature of her blend, Lisa Urt invites us into a cosmopolitan universe where blues, soul, bossa nova and reggae are intertwined like a reminder of the roots of jazz. Her voice, with its captivating and moving energy, echoes the great voices of African-American music. We then let ourselves be carried away on this journey filled with emotion and poetry, all punctuated by the refined swing of its musicians.
A stunning quartet or Lisa Urt's voice flirting emotionally with Marc Pouplin's electric jazz. Double bassist Sergiu Brasovean does not hesitate to make the audience groan with his slaps while Dimitri Hàlasz rhythms, with the help of his gypsy guitar, wanders between swing, soul and world music.

Aya Nakamura - Djadja - 2018
RNB

Wikipédia:

Aya Danioko, known as Aya Nakamura (born 10 May 1995), is a French R&B singer of Malian origin. Coming from a family of griots (West African storytellers, praise singers / poets of oral tradition), she is the oldest of five siblings in her family. Immigrating to France with her family, she resided in Aulnay-sous-Bois. She followed fashion courses at La Courneuve. She later launched into music taking the name Nakamura, after the character Hiro Nakamura of the NBC Heroes science fiction drama series.

Nakamura published her music online with "Karma" and "J'ai mal" getting a lot of following. Dembo Camara, a long-time friend, became her producer and manager. Her song "Brisé" composed by Christopher Ghenda, garnered 13 million views on YouTube, and a duo with rapper Fababy "Love d'un voyou" resulted in her charting in France. She released her debut album with a number of collaborations. She also had a big concert at the Modibo-Keïta stadium in Bamako, where she opened for the Nigerian star Davido.

In April 2018, Aya Nakamura released a track, the first single from a future album, entitled Djadja (that has more than 215 million views on YouTube) which will be released two weeks in a row at the top of the French top singles charts and certified as a platinum record. The title also crosses the borders of France, or French-speaking Africa, Belgium and Switzerland. Indeed, it met with great success in the Netherlands, where for the first time a French-speaking women's song took the lead in sales since 1961, when Edith Piaf had already achieved this feat with "Je ne regrette rien". Djadja is the first French song to reach first place in sales in the Netherlands, the last French song was Alors on danse by the Belgian singer Stromae. Djadja is broadcast on German, Swedish and Austrian radio stations.

Aya Nakamura oh yeah

Hello papi but what’s up?
I’m hearing atrocious things about me
Apparently i’m chasing you?
What’s wrong with you, you must be crazy... yeah
But what do you mean ?, the world is small
What did you think, that we would never meet again ?
I could put you on blast if i wanted to but that’s not who i am
According to the rumours, you had me in your bed

Oh Djadja
There’s no way Djadja
I’m not your whore Djadja
In Catchana baby, you better dead that

You’re thinking of me, I’m thinking of making the money
I’m not your mother, i don’t do your lectures
you’re talking about me, it’s not my problem ( it’s not my problem)
Spit some more, it’s not my problem (it’s not my problem)
You wanted me, you didn’t know how to manage
You were playing a role, you’ll end up in hell
“I slept with Nakamura anyway”
The day that we meet, you better not choke
You were acting like a big brother to get dirt on me
You were looking for trouble without doing it on purpose
Damn but you’re tripping
That’s not the way to act
Damn but you’re tripping
That’s not the way to act
Damn but you’re tripping that’s not the way to act

Oh Djadja
There’s no way Djadja
I’m not your whore Djadja,
like
In Catchana baby, you better dead that

Oh Djadja
I’m not your whore Djadja,
no
There’s no way Djadja, yeah
In Catchana baby, you better dead that

In Catchana, baby you better dead that
In Catchana baby
In Catchana baby you better dead that
In Catchana baby

Oh Djadja
Oh Djadja
Oh Djadja ...

Léonie - En Alabama - 1971
Pop, rock, chanson, yéyé

Wikipédia
Léonie Lousseau, aka Léonie, whose real name is Martine Annie Collet, born on May 8, 1947 in Saint-Malo, is a French singer, actress and graphic designer.

She was born in Saint-Malo to a father who was a literature teacher and painter, and a housewife, both Bretons, who was also the granddaughter of a painter.

Léonie's main schooling was in Ivry, then at the Lycée Claude-Monet in Paris 13th, then in 3rd grade at Henri IV's annex in Vitry. In a hurry, she passed her high school diploma in the second year, at the same time as she was preparing for and passing the entrance exam to the pilot high school in Sèvres, in the plastic arts drawing section.

In the late 1960s, to earn a living, Léonie posed for magazines, illustrated and graphic designed small roles in the cinema as well.

In 1967, Léonie Lousseau was spotted by Sébastien Poitrenaud who wrote four songs for her, which she recorded with Philips, entitled : I'm going to take a walk in the countryside, Le Cinérama, Candie, but above all La fleur de Serre, a little jewel of a song that Léonie loves. Jean-Claude Vannier will make the arrangements and lead the sessions. She then began an adventure that led her to meet in 1971, the singer Christophe and Thierry Vincent, singer of the famous oh! les filles, oh! les filles, they make me crazy, they will work together to produce a 2nd disc of the singer entitled En Alabama, (words and music, Jean-Claude Vannier and Wahala Manitou (music and choirs Christophe, words Etienne Roda-Gil).1971, it is also the date of the sudden death of her little brother, a tragedy that will break her momentum, she moves away from the stages, interviews and if she continues to record until 1975, it is in a kind of sadness that she has difficulty getting rid of.

She then approached an English songwriter and performer Paul Ives, who was neither known nor recognized, and it was in this lack of notoriety, without commercial contingency or obligations of any kind if not artistic, outside her usual environment, that she felt better and produced with him, unpublished songs such as Elisabetti, Que la Pluie, Lady of glue, L'Amour c'est comme le chocolat, put online on Youtube, only in 2016.

In 1969, she appeared in the film Paul directed by Diourka Medveczky with Bernadette Lafont, Jean-Pierre Léaud, and Jean-Pierre Kalfon.

In 1970, she designed the cover of the eponymous album of the group Dynastie Crisis, which was released the same year and appeared in a Daniel Daert film, Caïn de nulle part. She also designed Gilbert Montagné's first cover artwork.

She sings the trailer of László Szabó's film, Les Gants blancs du diable in 1973.

In 1979, Léonie released her last single entitled Elisabetti.

Léonie Lousseau has also worked as a graphic designer and model maker for Filipacchi Editions: Salut les Copains et Mademoiselle Âge Tendre (M.A.T.).

En Alabama, très loin là-bas
Anna attend, tendre Anna
Celui qui se bat, très loin là-bas

Et ne sait pas s'il reviendra

Sur sa machine, elle embobine le fil hydrophile
Love and a thrill, up on the hill in the cotton field

En Alabama, très loin là-bas
Anna attend, tendre Anna
Celui qui se bat, très loin là-bas
Et ne sait pas pour qui pourquoi

Sur sa machine, elle l'imagine, vers la mer de Chine
Love and a thrill, up on the hill in the cotton field
En Alabama

Sloy - Idolize - 1996
Noise rock, Post Hardcore

Album: Planet of tubes (RYM: 3,51/5)

Romain Guillou, All Music Guide
The band formed in Béziers, France, in 1991. At the end of the same year, they decided to drive up north to Rennes, a French city known for its rock scene, where they slowly spun their web. Right after the release of the EP Fuse, they started to play in bigger venues like l'Ubu in Rennes and other important clubs. They rapidly got off the ground and they chose to work with Steve Albini for their coming album, Plug. John Peel noticed them at that time and invited them to his radio show. The same year, while playing opening for Brick Layer Cake and Shellac, they were seen on stage by PJ Harvey, who wanted them to tour with her. In 1996, Sloy came back with a second album, Planet of Tubes. This time, the popular media started to notice them; they were seen on TV and in national magazines. For the first time, a French indie rock band is on their way to being recognized by a large fringe. But, finally, they never got the recognition the could have had, even with the musical change that occurred in the last album, Electrelite. The alchemy did not work: the fans were deceived by it and it was still too hard to listen for the neophytes. Despite a big tour, it smelled like the end of the band. They split two years after. ~

Laurent Lamarca - Taxi - 2013
Chanson.

Album: Nouvelle Fraîche

Chantefrance.com (DeepL translate)
Son of amateur musicians (a guitarist and an accordionist), Laurent Lamarca grew up in Lyon where he formed his first group with his cousins at the age of twelve and then continued with another one called XX Mariani. Not very interested in studying, he moved to Paris to work as a professional musician. He started as a tour bassist for the singer Ycare and then accompanied Camélia Jordana and Luce.

Author, composer and performer, he made his first appearance at the Chantier des Francofolies in La Rochelle. The record companies took over. Signed by Major Sony via the Columbia label, Laurent Lamarca is working on his first album, preceded by several months by a five track EP but without a name, released in June 2012, in which he puts the tracks "J'ai laissé derrière moi" and "La Main". In November follows the single "Little Rimbaud". Entitled Nouvelle Fraîche, the first album released in September 2013 covers these songs by adding new songs such as "Taxi" and "Les Jolies choses" written by Eddy La Gooyatsch


Taxi emmenez-moi au plus loin de chez moi
Taxi emmenez-moi loin des rêves perdus
Sur une autre avenue

Taxi perdez-moi dans les rues de la ville
Taxi rendez-moi l'humeur un peu docile
Dans les rues de la ville

Oui toi tu sais
Combien je ne savais plus
Le chemin qu'il me fallait...
Éclairer l'avenue, oui toi tu sais

J'ai levé la main, tu m'as vu
Juste un peu plus près ....
Je reviens vers qui j'étais

Taxi emmenez-moi au plus loin de chez moi
Taxi emmenez-moi loin des rêves perdus
Sur une autre avenue

Taxi emmenez-moi dans les rues de la ville
Taxi rendez-moi l'humeur un peu docile
Dans les rues de la ville

Taxi emmenez-moi...

Taxi, take me to the farthest place away from home.
Taxi, carry me far away from the lost dreams,
on another avenue.

Taxi, make me lose my way in the city streets.
Taxi, make my mood somewhat more subdued
in the city streets.

Oh yes, you know
how I no longer knew
which way I needed...
You know how to light up the avenue.

I waved my hand, you saw me,
just a bit closer...
I'm coming back to who I was.

Taxi, take me to the farthest place away from home.
Taxi, carry me far away from the lost dreams,
on another avenue.

Taxi, make me lose my way in the city streets.
Taxi, make my mood somewhat more subdued
in the city streets.

Taxi, carry me away...

Les Gam's - L'été reviendra - 1964
Chanson, yéyé

Wikipédia:
Les Djinns were a French choir with a distinctive singing style, composed of sixty girls between the ages of nine and eighteen years, conducted by Paul Bonneau. In 1959, the French government organized a 'Master School' for the instruction of girls in musical subjects in order to ensure a supply of performance talent for the country's radio and television industry. The Master School set a course of study where the girls followed a curriculum of standard academic subjects in the morning hours, then musical courses in the afternoons consisting of scales, vocal techniques, harmony and choral vocalizing. Upon graduation, each girl was accepted into Les Djinns.

Within six weeks of the group's founding, Les Djinns were awarded the Gran Prix of the Academy of Records in France, and their popularity began to proliferate with stage appearances in France and tours in other European countries. Eventually a total of 88 tunes were recorded, including a Christmas album and an album of American favorites sung in French, and released on the ABC-Paramount label. One Les Djinns single recording, "Marie Marie" (1960), made it onto the Top 100 list.

Les Djinns never toured the United States, but two separate filmed sequences were shown within two separate Sunday-evening Ed Sullivan variety shows.

Les Gam's
Several of Les Djinn Singers graduates continued on with separate recording careers. In September 1962, Les Djinn' lead soloist Annie Markan and three other members of the group – Graziella, Michèle and Suzie – formed the vocal quartet Les Gam's. (The name was derived from the first letter of each girl’s name plus the added apostrophe to add a fashionable touch.)

Les Gam's issued one disc on the Vogue label, then signed with Mercury Records for subsequent releases, their repertoire consisting almost exclusively of covers of American songs, and they enjoyed some success. Accompaniment was sometimes provided by the Les Lionceaux group.

The Les Gam's disbanded after September, 1964 following the release of "Une petite larme m’a trahie", their take on Burl Ives' "A Little Bitty Tear" on which Annie was given top billing, with credits reading "Les Gam’s with Annie Markan".

Markan issued her first solo Extended Play album in 1965, leading with "Quand mon ami pleure", a version of the little-known "When My Baby Cries", penned by Lesley Duncan with French lyrics written specially for Annie by Hubert Wayaffe, presenter of Europe 1’s "Dans le vent" program.

No mention of Les Gam's was made on the record’s sleeve and the musical style was in marked contrast to her earlier material, but Markan returned to more familiar fare for her follow-ups. Les Gam’s had enjoyed their biggest hit with "Il a le truc", a version of the Exciters’ "He’s Got the Power", so the US group’s back catalogue was adapted again for Annie.

When US singer Len Barry scored a hit in France with "1-2-3", Mercury released Markan's "Un, deux, trois" on Extended Play along Markan’s version of Martha and the Vandellas’ "Nowhere to Run", retitled "Mon obsession me poursuit".

Markan's final EP was released in 1966 without much success, and she was quietly dropped by the label. She is understood to have gone on to work in public relations.
Quand l'été reviendra près de nous
Quand l'été sera là près de nous
Quelque part, n'importe où
Un garçon de ton âge
T'attendra sur la plage

Quand l'été reviendra près de nous
Sur la plage tu auras rendez-vous
Il te faudra toujours
Te faire belle pour le voir
Pour le voir... oui mais chaque soir

Il te fera la cour
La mer, le ciel vous cacheront
Et quand viendra le jour
Faudra vous quitter pour de bon

Quand l'été sera très loin de nous
Quand l'été sera fané pour nous
Quelque part dans ton cœur
Tu auras pour toujours
Un garçon de ton âge

Un garçon attendant le retour
De l'été qui viendra à son tour
Il sera sur la plage
Pour t'attendre bien sage
Et te voir... oui mais chaque soir

Il te fera la cour
Les bateaux seront toujours là
Et quand viendra le jour
Vous partirez très loin là-bas

Quand l'été reviendra près de nous
Quand l'été sera là près de nous
Quelque part, n'importe où
Un garçon de ton âge
T'attendra sur la plage

Cerrone - Love in C Minor - 1976
Disco

Album: Love in C Minor (RYM: 3.34/5)

Wikipédia
Marc Cerrone (born 24 May 1952) is a French disco drummer, composer, record producer and creator of major concert shows. Cerrone is considered as one of the most influential disco producers of the 1970s and '80s in Europe.

He has sold over 30 million records worldwide, including over four million copies in France alone, and eight million copies of Supernature, which is considered his magnum opus.

The single "Love in C Minor" (1976) reached No. 3 and stayed on record charts for over two months, chalking up sales of three million copies. With "Supernature" (1977), Cerrone merged symphonic orchestrations with the rigid sounds of synthesizers. At the 1978 Billboard Disco Forum, Cerrone took home six awards including Disco Artist of the Year.

In addition to Love in C Minor, Cerrone's Paradise and Supernature, Marc Cerrone enjoyed success in Europe with albums such as Cerrone IV: The Golden Touch (1978), Where Are You Now (1983), The Collector (1985), Human Nature (1994) and more recently with the dance albums Hysteria (2002) and Celebrate (2007).

Cerrone is also known for his huge live performances. In 1991, the French composer was entrusted with the task of laying on the show "Harmony" to celebrate the launch of Japan's first high-definition TV satellite. The rock opera was therein presented to over 800,000 spectators at the Tokyo harbour. This event recorded such success that Broadway asked Cerrone to adapt "Harmony" for theatre. In 1992, the musical Dreamtime which was based on an original story by Cerrone ran for 140 shows on Broadway at New York's Ed Sullivan Theater.

In a career spanning over four decades, Cerrone has recorded and performed with many prominent musicians, including Nile Rodgers, Toto, Laura Branigan, Jocelyn Brown, La Toya Jackson and Axelle Red. His music has been sampled by artists such as The Avalanches, Bob Sinclar, the Beastie Boys and Run-D.M.C..

Album:
Love in C Minor
Based in Paris, Cerrone recorded, composed, and performed his solo debut Love in C Minor, again with Costandinos. Released on his own Malligator imprint, and distributed by Warner Filipacchi in France, it immediately shocked audiences with its controversial cover. It was later released with a new, tamer cover that took flashes of nude women into the background and replaced them with four arms clenched instead for the American release.

It also featured a cover version of Los Bravos's "Black Is Black" and "Midnite Lady", an instrumental piece. Cotillion Records released the album through Warner distribution in the U.S. The album was released unedited in Canada, using the original master tapes. This was the final collaboration between Cerrone and the Egyptian-born Costandinos, who went on to create dancefloor hits such as "I've Found Love" by Love & Kisses, and the disco opera re-telling of the story of "Romeo and Juliet".
