Les airs digitaux

Description

Chanter of French electronic pop, Octave Noire returns for a 3rd album! Octave Noire still runs on melancholy since "Neon" in 2017 and "Monolithe" in 2020, but this time he says he has focused more on the songs, even if it means straying a bit from the omnipresent electronics. For "Les airs digitaux," a title inspired by Thomas Pesquet's last stay in space, the singer hears the Stars twinkling in music, an image that fits well with this album, which is much more personal than the previous ones. And it is indeed the depths of his smooth spoken-singing that guide us through the eleven tracks of this new constellation. "Les Airs digitaux" navigates between flashes, intensity, and moments of lightness. Octave Noire unfolds here all the facets of a musician who is always sensitive. A more danceable, brighter album, sometimes lighter, but where one can still feel the anxiety of the times and the existential questions of an artist who has managed to find his way and shed the shyness of his beginnings, without losing charm.
