Album description

Voyager cover

 

This album exists because of the support I received from many friends on Jamendo and MySpace. I thought previously that there was no audience for such a non commercial music. It used all the techniques I have learnt these last years: computer assistance, multi-tracks recording, audio plug-ins, samples... as well as writing notation and have it played by efficient software with sounds of real instruments. On this new album I wanted to go back to my roots: pop, folk, traditional music that I always liked. I hope you'll like it and share it with your friends.

Whatever software or keyboards were used in this composition, I would like to hear some of these softer, less electronic sounding sounds used with the compositions on Moods. Altogether, the sound is just less distracting and flows better in this collection. Again, I'll say, good compositions and production.

If there has to be a valor for music, then it's certainly connected in a straight line, with the pleasure and satisfaction it provides.

In that perspective and in some particular cases, its valor becomes irremediably unmeasurable. And when such a thing happens, to look for possible issues or basis limitations, doesn't make any sense and while existing, are to be taken merely as quality reinforcements of its humanly conception... because, imperfections and limitations, are also and necessarily a major asset of our evolution and an important part of our global human condition.
As I understand, this is kind of an experimental recording made upon some recent learning (at the time) and effort of innovation... while at the same time, a go back to some referential roots of a more traditional and folk kind of music. A very suitable scenario for the happening of something special... which, in fact and under my personal perspective, happened...

... because perfection is no more than a paradigm... and any recognizable and valuable effort in its direction, is necessarily, a model to follow and like so, also an example... a paradigm by itself... therefore, this also very beautiful album, is no less than an absolute perfection!

Quite delightful the cover art. In the case and undoubtedly, also an asset for the purpose of a global appreciation.

Yvalain, you are one of the best new artists I've found on Jamendo. I do not often give reviews. My family is busy moving to Virginia, right now, and my personal time is very limited.

However, when I find someone who's music is really new and worthwhile, I feel I have to say something. Like you, I came to Jamendo because I didn't feel there was really a place out there for "non commercial" music. I was surprised at the reception, and incredibly grateful.

But moreover -- here I've found the type of music I've always been looking for. Odd thing is, I never can explain just what that is, until I hear it. I don't go by genre. I go for "something new and different."

Your guitar and bass work is awesome, and I hope to learn a bit from it by studying some of your compositions.

(J'aurais dû savoir que la belle minette88 est déjà ici. J'ai appris à faire confiance à ses recommandations immédiatement :D Si vous lisez ceci, je vous remercions de votre travail aussi.)

Romantic and not boring at all. Got surprises and great moments of love and strength. It is not wondrous but was a surprise, I believe. I got a lot to learn with guys like you. Congratulations.
