About this album

à écrit :

Myriam Matoussi chante.
Froissement d'ailes de papillons dans la brise,
caresse de la pluie sur les feuilles, frissons d'écorce.
Myriam Matoussi chante et où pourrions nous l'écouter ailleurs que sur Jamendo.
Peu importe que Myriam déplace les foules ou que son chant atypique ne touche le coeur que d'une minorité, ceux qui se perdent avec elle dans les volutes de ses labyrinthes excentrés entendent palpiter la vie en multiples rayons de lumière suspendus au dessus des abysses de nos incomplétudes.
Myriam chante, psalmodie, rie, fredonne, invente la musique, venez vous perdre, fredonner, sourire, venez danser entre les arbres verts...

La musique est "multicolore" comme la vie. Impressionnante voix. Quelque chose entre l´Orient et l´Occident - bon!! Merci beaucoup !

I completely disagree with other reviewers who find the background music 'muddy' - it's not at all. Rather I find, in this album, the music and Myriam's soulful singing are matched, unlike some of her other albums where a more zippy lounge-type music is oddly paired with her Middle-Eastern voice of sensuality and longing, of the spirit traveling its long desert journeys finding oasis in beautiful music like this. I particularly like the multiple voices, the sense of mourning, of the strength of the heart of love. The background accompaniment of drums and ambient sounds and perhaps jazz instruments, it's hard to say, it's a wonderful blend, also reminds me of traditional Japanese music. I'm thinking of Shakuhachi, somehow her voice and the distant sounds, like cargo detached from its sinking boat hitting the rocks, the rhythm and power of the ocean, that assortment of natural organic sounds. (Though the last piece in the album, Yasmine President, doesn't work for me - it's a throw-back to that boppi synthesized sound of other albums which I don't find a good match for Myriam's soulful sensual voice & I'll have to delete that one from my download unfortunately, which is a pity since her voice in that piece reaches an apex of such sweetness.) That said, there's a lot of experiment in this album with different sound scapes for different tracks and sometimes in the same track and I enjoy the variety. I've downloaded for iPod pleasure as Myriam sings my world into being while I walk through the streets of my city. Thank you for sharing your talent!

...if the sounds were to be mixed with some rock or trance will probably sound very cool, however they are not; also, as i saw at many jamendo artists, there are no english lyrics, so even if might there be a message that would compensate other things, that is not available... thanks 4 sharing :)

I was seduced by the beauty of this alluring voice and entranced by the music.The artist should be applauded for making something so refreshingly fun,catchy and uplifting."Erinesh By en voute he" & "Aboibi nag Champa " would grace any music collection.

je suis jalouse de cette fraicheur,de cet envoutement incontrôlé ,j'y reviens sans cesse et sans me lasser,je suis happée. Je ne sais si je dois dire encore ou merci.

Déphasage

Je suis vraiment désolé mais j'accroche pas.La voix est belle, c'est indéniable, mais le déphasage avec la musique me déplait souverainement.Désolé !
