Pathos under the disco ball

It is no coincidence that the decade of the eighties the country are in opposite directions as the decade of the inferior taste charged. While in the underground, Post-Punk and New Wave austobten and wild flowers drove, established in Mainstreampop from the middle of the decade, a easy crippling boom-Chic: They danced to digital synthesizerpop in the neon light, sweat was rather frowned upon, disco ball, and permanent waves were fogged with dry ice, and the slightly supercooled bartenders served plenty of überzuckerte mixed drinks to the Soundtrack of Matt Bianco or Nik Kershaw.

In the eighties, the music Vendredi Sur Mer would have been in a nightclub played that would go through given the current state of the musical and fashionable enlightenment as a rather unapart. In her Songs, swaths of Synthesizer on towers-Kitsch, the disco beat is unadorned programmed in the elderly rhythm machines, even flutes-erotic, well it's possible that they, too, originate from the digital synthesizer. And leads to all the full the lady on the microphone in a slightly pathetic voice, the presentation behaviour of a touching poem-Rezitiererin dunned.

That sounds awful, a apply now first skeptics. But it is not! It is even quite amazing.

In November, a Auftrittim ancient Olympic

Vendredi Sur Mer, a project the Genevan Charline Mignot, which has opened two years ago to Paris, and since then, with their sultry disco music the French the head is rotated. Now she has published her first long-player, and thus in the shortest time possible seven-digit Streaming. There are performances in the TF1 television Studio, and the lead story in the "Vogue", and in November of this year they may occur even in the ancient Olympia in Paris.

That would hardly dig, Vendredi Sur Mer, just in 80s-Disco-cliché boxes. In the best moments of a very pretty, catchy melodies rise from the sweet-smelling ground fog. Then these songs have a disarming charm, then, is reminiscent of the Semi-erotic classic of the French music history, in the approximate range between the Gainsbourg/Birkin and Guesch Patti.

the starting point of your music is the sensuality that she has mentioned in a recent Interview. "It is the only place I manage to be as it want me in my Dreams." However, since the path to this sensuality can sometimes be a bit rocky, not to act their songs only of carnal Lust, but also of human-to-human uncertainty and defiant taunt: "Elle a fait pleurer les garçons / Et elle a bien raison" she sings in one of the best Songs on the album ("Larme à gauche") in the role of the observer Femme fatale. You've done your separations to the Songs, she says, and she was happy about it.

just as the literature, she is inspired by any very carefree love of life bears witness to: Marie-France Hirigoyen has written instructions on how to be alone, Edouard Louis has handled sexual violence experiences, literary, and Georges Perec has drawn a dark utopia of a world in which there are only winners or losers.

These dark pages are to be found only in the small print of the new Vendredi Sur-Mer-album, whose Cover shows a gorgeous combed Charline Mignot in pink robe on a shell-shaped throne. An ambivalence between Kitsch and art, which seems to amuse the singer obviously.

Vendredi Sur Mer: "Prime Minister émois" (Profil de Face)

This is Mignot, the music is actually just a collateral product in the life of the Charline. She worked as a photographer, as you came up with the idea for a photo shoot a Text to set to music, which seemed appropriate for the Setting. After your first Song was amazing getting a lot of publicity, put them in a second, which was immediately used by the fashion designer Sonia Rykiel for a fashion show.

Also, as a photographer, she causes a stir.

It seems that this 24-Year-old with pretty much everything she does, hits a nerve. During her music career came slowly in the corridors, was touted as the next big Talent of the French fashion photography. Your photographs is something Translated. The Models wander dream-like through the Scenery, laughing is rare, it is dominated by a strange melancholy in a carefully stylized world. You visualize so pretty much exactly what Vendredi Sur Mer on your first Album to music.
