'Broken mirror' is about not seeing one's self clearly as if I was seeing myself in multiple broken fragments of broken mirrors. The song is about seeing something and then missing it again, over and over. In contrast, I wanted the chorus to offset that with an intense and emotional plea "I know that I've never been apart from you." 
I wanted to set a premise lyrically in the verse, like a bow that's tightened, and then with the chorus you release the tension, and the arrow is released. 
Musically, there's really strong inspiration of British folk music in this song. Songs that have been written way before the age of the modern songwriter, not knowing who the songs were written by, old songs…

Lyrics:

I was only a tide apart
Only as close as fingers touch
I was only an age away
Only as near as tongues can taste

But the whole plane shattered for me
Gone with every little thing I see
I know that i've never been apart from you
And I know that i've never been apart from you

I was only a wing apart
Only as pressed as arms can hold
I was only one breeze north
Only as joined as limbs can take

You were only a whisper down 
Only as far as pleasure breaks
You were only the crying gone
Only as high as voices reach

Extrait du film - A bout de souffle -

A bout de souffle de Jean Luc Godart - Jean Seberg - Aéroport Roissy Charles de Gaulle, interview, d'un grand écrivain, Monsieur Parvulesco, jouée par l'immense cinéaste J-P Melville.
Pourquoi avoir choisi cette scène ?
Parce qu'elle est en tout point admirable, visionnaire et fascinante ! Et cela pour plusieurs raisons.
Premièrement elle s'insère dans le film sans raison apparente. Elle n'ajoute rien semble-t-il. Une sorte de parenthèse, de digression pseudo philosophique.
Deux cinéastes de génie se rencontrent et se télescopent et peut-être se provoquent. L'un, Jean Luc Godart, jeune cinéaste, fait parler l'autre...
Et ce que dit J-P Melville est à tiroirs. Toute cette scène est à tiroirs !
A la première écoute on entend Melville tenir un discours misogyne. Parce qu'à la première écoute on s'attache beaucoup plus aux réponses de Melville qu'aux questions qui lui sont posées.
Second tiroir : On observe les questions qui lui sont posées.
Troisième tiroir : on découvre alors que la pertinence des réponses que donne Melville est fonction de la pertinence des questions. Plus les questions sont idiotes et plus Melville répond bêtement.
Cette scène est donc d'une modernité incroyable - Elle annonce le règne des médias et la platitude du discours médiatique, et Melville s'en sort admirablement dans le rôle que Godart lui a donné -
Godart - 1 : Melville - 1
"Devenir immortel, et puis mourir..."

Love and share

Monsieur Parvulesco

Sickness brought me this
Thought, in that scale of his:
Why should I be dismayed
Though flame had burned the whole
World, as it were a coal,
Now I have seen it weighed
Against a soul?

A Friend's Illness

Brand new 12” on Wonderwheel from Italian producer DJ Khalab, previously notable for a string of buzzy solo releases on Clap!Clap!’s Black Acre Records. Khalab teams up with prolific Malian master musician and Griot singer Baba Sissoko for an exploration into deep, minimal experimental African/Electronic sounds. On the “A” side “Kumu” is a dark, glitchy four to the floor track with bubbling synths, live percussion and Baba Sissoko’s unmistakeable voice,  while German producer Harmonious Thelonious aka Stefan Schwander (Antonelli Electr., Repeat Orchestra, Rhythm Maker) stretches out the tracks inherent minimalism while tastefully beefing up the drums, adding synth flourishes and well timed drops. On the flip, “Kumu” is a more acoustic vocal and Xalam driven track with stuttering electronic growls and groans and minimal percussion. London based Ibibio Sound Machine (Soundway Records) brings the funk into the mix with keyboard stabs, guitars, and a  super catchy bassline and plenty of synthesizer explorations. 

DJ Khalab & Baba Sissoko’s debut album will be out late fall on Wonderwheel Recordings.
