un beatmaker et une violoncelliste pour un concert de trip-hop
And therefore, electronic music and cello, it clashes and that’s what makes the charm of the duo, torn between the soft sounds of the string instrument and the colder atmospheres of the machines. An antinomy which has become the identity of the group which offers a fairly gentle trip-hop, carried by the lyricism of Romane’s voice, which sometimes ventures on one side towards dub where the cello then becomes totally incongruous or the other towards the French song where its logic becomes more obvious.
In two albums and a good dose of concerts, the duo from the North but based in the Dordogne ended up carving out a rather flattering reputation which owes as much to the originality of the formula as to the imagination that it will deploy for associate and make natural this musical alliance. The only pitfall on the road to recognition is the risk of confusing the duo with Solune, a group of French songs that worked locally in the 2010s and So La Lune, a French rapper. No, So Lune is the alliance and opposition of the sun and the moon, an alliance of opposites that we find in a music that openly claims Portishead, Massive Attack or Björk. And which offers a concert on Friday at the end of a week-long creation residency. To complete a repertoire that is still young and just waiting to expand.
Tomorrow Friday, October 21 at 2:30 p.m. at the Rocher de Palmer in Cenon. Reservation free but recommended. https://lerocherdepalmer.fr
