About the album, all i know track by track

Voodoo Job.
I wanted something that sounds a bit like a french band called WILD CLASSICAL MUSIC ENSEMBLE. It is a band of 4 autistic and trisomic people.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_NZFjqEuPU
but i was not able to make it. But i like it anyway. :-)

Communionn
A total goth track with samples from a catholic french radio + samples from a film music i love. the voice is Romy Schneider.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsWZcwPL7-Q
the sample is when she says "un oiseau".

Patatra
I wanted to make a live track. It is a live track.
made with the instrument a friend made for me. A small guitar full of noisy synths.

Bassyboo
My "The Cure Disintegration" small track.

Louloulou
My Casio SK1 track. It is my voice singing via the SK1. "lou lou lou"

Realistic One
a kind of stupid hysterical samba. mostly live.

Nouchka 47
the voice is not in french. It is in portuguese. it is a friend called Michael

Patin.
the lyrics are from an obscur surrealist portuguese poet. I don't know his name.
The musical inspiration is mostly www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwLtHBJNe2Q
But once again, it doesn't sound like this. That's just the original idea i had in mind.

Bell Bastard.
I was in a church in Venice and a father was explaining the paintings of the church to his kid.
I think they were half italian and half french as they were talking in both laguages.
The father was explaining a painting were Jesus is carring the cross. I recorded them and mixed the track with some bells from the same church.

Domino Cascade.
It is french. My friend Arne Vinzon is singing. the song is about the fact that suicide is an option.

Milou.
I had Colin Newman is mind. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rxuu2RHQIhc

Nikolu does the guitar again. I wish i could make some more crazy stuff, but my tracks are always quieter than my influences.

Nina
is made from a sample by Nina Simone
the singer is also Michael (portuguese again, same autor).
the female voice is Kumi Okamoto. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNrb7Hxcs2w - very far from my sound but i like to make her sing some sad stuff.
i wanted the mood to sound like a mis of Cranes www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8QE4k0T980
and Sr Chinarro www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkfC-UurbZc

Small Packet
just a little track in french with the google translation voice. Speaking in french with an english accent. i don't remember what i made it say.

Durk
i don't know where it comes from. but i like it.
