Mélanie Pain is back like a ball!

The singer Mélanie Pain, one of the voices of the Nouvelle Vague project, returns with Parachute, an ambitious album that is a dive into a lush and synthetic world of which we discover an excerpt: Comme Une Balle! Three years after the excellent pop component Bye Bye Manchester, Mélanie Pain continues to free herself from traditional patterns of pop, to build an innovative work. In the tradition of Björk and the artists of the Warp label, Mélanie Pain has imagined a dreamlike concept album of a strong sound maturity. Accompanied by Gael Rakotondrabe, pianist and arranger on the last tour of the revered Antony and the Johnsons and having collaborated with CocoRosie, Mélanie Pain plunges into herself and petrifies us in front of the complexity of her universe. We find his serpentine voice, soft and insidious that takes us from these mazes of sound. Comme une Balle marks Mélanie Pain's return to music, a return that marks a strong turn, or rather a continuation of her musical explorations. Darker and more intense, Mélanie Pain explores her fears bluntly. Demons work wonders: the sweet violence of passing time ("Tears"), the disappearance that we tame ("In a box"). The light comes next with "Entrailles" and its twirling programming. Parachute is released on October 28 by Kwaidan Records on Mélanie Pain's Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/melaniepainmusic
