Jean-Michel Jarre – Infinity (movement 6)
The French producer and composer looks back on his emblematic album released in 1978, in 10 movements defined as a musical ensemble, including Infinity (movement 6). We will let you get the album to appreciate the orchestral coherence. There are artists who do not seek to compete with their contemporary peers, but to make the best of what they have done best, nourishing their integrity and their own creation. Jean-Michel Jarre is one of them.

Agoria – Embrace ft. Phoebe Killdeer
Agoria (real name Sébastien Devaud) unveils a new track entitled Embrace (embrace) accompanied by the voice of Phoebe Killdeer. His singing is lush, and enchants while Devaud envelops him with experimental melodies, disorienting the listening. On screen, the piece depicts human duplicity through the militarization of bodies and minds. The soldiers' preparation movements for battle gradually turn into choreographed dance orders with a final painting imitating that of "The Last Supper".

Caruso – O barbarism
On November 13th… The music world will remember it for a long time. 3 years ago, Paris had a deadly evening where music was touched in the heart. 3 years ago, some of our editors were in concert halls to write; luckily, none were at the Bataclan, but everyone remembers the fear, the sadness, the anger they felt… And the hope that followed! Caruso took advantage of the commemoration of this sad day to release this poignant title. Thanks to him.
Hozier – Movement
Hozier was in Paris last Wednesday in the setting of the Salle Pleyel to present his latest EP, Nina Cried Power and start teasing us on his next album that we are looking forward to. It was also an opportunity to discover on stage his latest title, the sublime Movement. By discovering the clip, we discover with pleasure the generosity of the singer who makes a wonderful return of elevator. Indeed we remember the video, directed by David LaChapelle, showing the dancer Sergei Polunin evolve on Take Me To Church. This time, it was Hozier who asked him to illustrate with his grace and his bodily power a title that suits him to delight. A pleasure for the eyes and ears. A must see!

Sam Fender – Dead Boys Prelude
Sam Fender has just unveiled a clip for his title Dead Boys Prelude, title that covers his song Dead Boys but is preceded by a gripping intro that does not leave you indifferent. Song that you may have the opportunity to hear during his concert in Paris on November 26th, besides JustFocus makes you win two places!

The Vaccines – All My Friends Are Falling In Love
The Vaccines unveiled their new album Combat Sport recently, so when the British band unveiled an unreleased single we were surprised… But not disappointed! All My Friends Are Falling In Love is a title that resembles the band: energetic, percussive and addictive!

The Snuts – Seasons
Scottish band The Snuts unveiled a multitude of live videos during their tour, including one for their hit Seasons during their concert at Saint Lukes in Glasgow. During these few minutes can see a talented band having fun with its audience, we would have liked to be there!
CORNER – Cemetery
COIN has just unveiled an unreleased title: Cemetery ! A song that takes us from its first seconds with its addictive melody and the soft voice of the singer. We can't wait for the Americans to unveil their new album!

Little Mix – Strip ft. Sharaya J
Little Mix continues to turn heads in the ranks of JustFocus! It is with pleasure that we announce the release of their fifth opus LM5 from which the single Strip is derived. A single motivated by female empowerment, the same common thread as the rest of the album. A breath of fresh air when we know that women artists are often mistreated by critics and the rest of public opinion… Little Mix doesn't care about those outside opinions about their work or their bodies: better yet, they encourage their fans to do the same and be proud of themselves! Strip is illustrated by a clip that exudes sisterhood, alongside women from all walks of life. Hats off girls!

JOKO – Obsessed (Mariah Carey Cover)
The duo we followed at the release of their first EP Loon, returns with a cover of Mariah Carey. This cover of Obsessed is part of the small project they have to release one, every week until their visit to the Bars en Trans in Rennes. The voice and the instruments in the JOKO sauce work perfectly and we are already waiting for the next video!
