Name: 05 - Love Is What You Make It by Comett
Duration: 2 min 51 s
Description: First single of my new album "Ghost inside me"

I will share it on Insta!! (rainbow forevermore...)

Une chanson pop-rock toute en subtilités dotée d'un aspect hautement mélodique. L'approche vocale masculine empreinte d'émotion véhicule un refrain accrocheur et une poésie empreinte d'une belle sensibilité. Un titre duquel émane une ambiance atmosphérique qui rappelle un peu les plus belles pièces de la formation Live.

I m crying all my heart !i love this song !

Sóley’s latest offering is the warmth beneath the snow at the end of winter, the seeds waiting to grow as spring whispers to us. From the heavy organs, synths, and minor keys of her last album Ask The Deep, 'Endless Summer' emerges with a kind of hopeful sweetness, and feels even more vulnerable, as Sóley climbs with us to incandescence. "The idea for the album came pretty randomly one night in beginning of January 2016 when I woke up in the middle of the night and wrote a note to myself: ‘Write about hope and spring’," she says about the LP’s general direction. "So I painted my studio in yellow and purple, bought a grand piano, sat down and started playing, singing and writing."

And 'Endless Summer' delivers just that, opening with the song "Úa" (named after her young daughter) that washes over us like a hopeful dream. It’s based on an adventurous acoustic arrangement reminiscent of Joanna Newsom or Agnes Obel, which sets the tone for what is to follow in its wake. Throughout the new album, Sóley’s arrangements for a small orchestra give 'Endless Summer' a colorful touch: Take, for example, the track "Never Cry Moon", in which the sound of clarinet, trombone and cello beautifully engulf Sóley’s repetitive piano playing.

Comprised of eight songs, 'Endless Summer' is an album that’s grounded in fertile wisdom. Not just an ethereal dream of love and light, but a subtle, accumulative wisdom, a conscious choice to cling to vitality. One might say that one of Sóley’s signatures is the childlike wonder in her lyrics, and 'Endless Summer' delivers the same wonder, but with a kind of reverence for it, for she’s no longer a wanderer in a nightmare, but an enchanted lover of mystery.

With the album’s title track, "Endless Summer", Sóley soothes the wandering mind in her lyricism, asking: "Did you see the stars?/Did you see the sun come up?/You can find me in the flowers/You can find yourself some peace."

'Endless Summer' is like the Icelandic summer, a liminal, endless turning, a shift of consciousness, an endless awakening of continual brightness not without the acknowledgement of winter; it is the eruption from which the rebirth of light emerges.

EVIDEMMENT

Lumière bleue

Rêverie, the 5th album of the French pop-folk melodist Comett, marks a parenthesis compared to the previous albums and a need for intellectual and musical escape.

After the success of the album "The Ghost inside me" and its more than one million streams, Alexandre Canola, aka Comett, renews himself with Rêverie, and proposes a musical and lyrical reflection written during the period of confinement.

Alexandre draws his inspiration not only from the Anglo-Saxon music of the '90s and '00s (Radiohead/The Notwist/ Blur), but also from the music of different cultures: South America (Rodrigo Amarante, Chico Buarque, Cartola), Italy (Andrea Laszlo de Simone), France ('60s/'70s - film music).

Peace of mind, a hybrid song mixing rock guitar à la Radiohead, Moog synthesizer and South American rhythm, shows a will to evolve his music.

Musically, the album could almost be a film soundtrack, with a lot of orchestration, like in the introductory song Opera 2080 or Une vie normale and The Stranger. This shows Comett's love of film music or the polished pop of The Divine Comedy.

The lyrics were marked by the period of reflection that was the confinement. 

The first layer of reflection is concerned with the meaning of everyday life: A Normal Life, Peace of Mind, The Stranger.

The second layer of reflection deals with the desire and the means of extracting oneself from this daily life: Opéra 2080, Rêve bizarre, Rêverie.

Rêverie is Comett's first album written in both English and French.

In terms of graphics, and as an artistic extension of the album, Vicky Royer has created a magnificent cover, exploring the themes of confinement and dreams, with nature taking over from society.

History:
Comett is an alternative pop music project founded in 2005 by the multi-instrumentalist artist Alexandre Canola, originally from Tours, who, after living successively in London and Dublin, has been based in Paris for over 10 years.
