    «Mes deux derniers albums, Grand Tour(2014) et Partitions(2019), ont été conçus autour d'idées principalement musicales. Et même si les paroles de ces disques étaient également liées à ces concepts (respectivement le voyage et la dissociation), les chansons jouaient avant tout sur des timbres, mélodies, harmonies et structures, au-delà d'une narration ou même d'un sens.J'ai donc voulu mettre en lumière ce jeu, en débarrassant certains morceaux de Partitions de leur aspect chanté. Se concentrer sur les éléments purement musicaux a pour objectif de saisir l'essence de ces chansons, conçues dès l'origine comme des pièces pouvant se passer de mots. Ainsi, "Nora" contient des mélodies réharmonisées, tout comme des harmonies remélodisées, qu'une interprétation au piano solo a pour but de mieux faire entendre.Par ailleurs, le 45 tours Allora comporte des réarrangements de deux compositions existantes qui s'écartent des enregistrements originaux. La chanson "Aloysius" ne contient pas de cordes, d'où la volonté de présenter avec un violoncelle, un violon à cinq cordes et un violon les quatre suites d'accords possibles de son thème de clavier, ou les deux mélodies distinctes de l'harmonie unique de son refrain.C'est Mathieu Geghre (claviériste et arrangeur pour Olivier Marguerit, The Rodeo...), doué d'une sensibilité à la fois pop et classique, qui a élaboré les adaptations pour piano et trio à cordes.» OROUNI

lyrics

Green grass hat ink apple. Sad face music clown girl

Experimenter - experimenter - let me go, my heart will give out I’m no longer part of it all

Hard head stone bread work. White cloud horse rock house

Please continue please continue. We’ve put all our trust in you - no harm will be done to your tissues

Are you kidding? You’re an actor, boy. You don’t know what I’ve been through here
A person like me hurting you, my god. I didn’t want to do it to you
Every time I pressed the button I died and maybe you were watching me
My reactions were giggly, trying to stifle laughs I really thought I’d kill that man

Sweating, trembling, biting their lips
Some were groaning, some were blushing
Some others heaved sighs of relief
Teachers were digging their fingernails into their skin
Or giving hints to the victims
Or stuttering or having seizures

I believed the man was dead until we opened the door, I said it’s great
But it didn’t even bother me to find out he was gone because I had accomplished a job

about

Orouni image

Orouni Paris, France

A fascination for ambitious compositions, a strong attachment to the art of songwriting: Orouni’s songs make room for vocal and instrumental melodies with complex harmonies and instruments that are rarely used in contemporary pop music (balafon, kalimba, mbira ...). In Orouni’s music, the Kinks dance with Chassol, Belle & Sebastian dance with Dylan and Malian music plays with the Beatles. ... more
