Noucky's picks
EPICA – Crimson Bow and Arrow
Fan of Epica but also fan of Shingeki No Kyojin – Attack on Titan – hang on to your headphones because it's moving! The Dutch group offers us a powerful and incredibly well arranged cover of the soundtrack of this anime that has conquered the French public for a few years and whose return is expected with a third season that is desired. The beautiful Simone Simons gives voice and especially gives us chills. Well done!

Gorillaz – Humility
A cool title under the palm trees that smells good summer … and who smells like the tube in full nose! What more could you ask for? And there are more guests? And yes, it's Jack Black that we see playing the guitar … Images that vaguely remind us of the movie Tenacioux D, with a soundtrack less rock naturally: it's Gorillaz! We are looking forward to their next album which should not be long …
The Disruptives – Jealous
The hoax of the week is signed Guillaume Meurice who invested the room of the Café de la Danse for a fake concert of a fake right-wing group very politically engaged. This is a slogan worthy of a campaign by Manu Macron with this hymn to social success. How is this comment cynical? But no, I'm not jealous?! Musically it swings, lyrics side… it also swings. Vocally… No comment. But we laughed and that's the main thing!
The Waxidermist – The Snow
A very Chinese Man like music that we love. From Hip Hop to cool without fuss with a flow that flows easy on which is added the delicious voice of Anna Kova that we would like to see again soon with an album of her own. In the meantime, we continue to appreciate his presence featuring on titles of such good quality. The Waxidermist is really a band to follow closely!
ROSE TIGER – UNDECIDED
A fresh, sparkling and tangy 80's sound. What better way to start the week in a good mood. We love this timbre of voice that really reminds us of the songs of this beautiful carefree era. No nostalgic pathos, a retro up to date graphics that works wonderfully, as much to say that all the ingredients are there to make Undecided a title worthy of a summer hit. Yes!

Maroon 5 – Girls Like You ft. Cardi B
Maroon 5 is back with Girls Like You. Following the hit What Lovers Do with R&B singer SZA, Maroon 5 called on Cardi B this time to give the song a higher energy. A pure hymn to women in particular, his wife and two daughters, to enjoy the love that emanates from the summer sun. Additionally, the music video highlights the diversity of women by sharing the stage with international stars including Camila Cabello, Rita Ora, Jennifer Lopez, Mary J Blige and Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown. Discover Girls Like You, which promises to be the hit of summer 2018.

The Black Eyed Peas – RING THE ALARM pt. 1, pt. 2, pt. 3
The Black Eyed Peas are back in force with a political and committed clip. Now in trio, Fergie having left the group last year, the BEP intend to shake mentalities. With vibes of N.W.A, they return to their first loves rapping as if their lives depended on it. So, "wake up", It's a title to listen to urgently!

Romain's choice
Odezenne – Lost
In their clip Lost, the Bordeaux of Odezenne takes us with them on the beach of Arcachon to share a moment out of time. This kind of episode lived between friends, so simple and yet unusual, during which anything other than the present moment disappears. Through unpretentious texts, and a clip sometimes contemplative (the image of a pier that washes up in the distance), sometimes animated, it is a call to live close and now, his family, his emotions, what comforts us.

Hayley Kiyoko – What I Need (feat. Kehlani)
From Expectation, Hayley Kiyoko's first album released on March 30, What I Need is the third single to be highlighted. Featuring prestigious, Hayley Kiyoko and Kehlani love each other for 5 minutes 29 on a background of dream pop and RnB sounds. Friends in life, there is no doubt that they should collaborate again in the future! Hayley Kiyoko is about to embark on a North American tour that will hopefully extend to Europe.

Jorja Smith – February 3rd
Only a few days left before the release of the highly anticipated first album of the young Englishwoman! Jorja Smith could not help but unveil February 3rd , new extract so, of Lost & Found which will be released on June 8. The song marks the return of an angelic voice and a soul sound rather "chill", known artistic signature of the project. At JustFocus we are trembling with impatience while waiting for the album… But also on October 22nd, since Jorja Smith will be at the Olympia !
