Nirman

Description

The twists of the unexpected, the chance of virtual encounters. Or perhaps, maybe, forcing one's destiny. Nirman experienced it all in a single flow. That June morning in 2017, the daily, automatic gesture of turning on his phone. A precise Twitter notification: "Da Silva is following you." Nirman, who holds his older singer in high regard, does not suppress his bursts of enthusiasm. He sends him a message including a title from his repertoire, a proposal for a duet, and an invitation to his Paris concert at the Café de la danse. No endless observation round, Da Silva replies within ten minutes. Under Da Silva's guidance, Nirman did not seek to chase trends here. It is a timeless record, with nuanced shades, where melodies gently and elegantly weave their way in. A record featuring invested and renowned guests: Thomas de Pourquery on saxophone, Nicolas Fiszman, the loyal bassist of Benjamin Biolay, and Cali for a duet around the gears of nocturnal wanderings (Compagnon de lune).
