Songs for Social Change

Hello, and thank you for taking the time to listen.  
My name is Johnny, a lifelong musician and songwriter whose work is deeply rooted in the pursuit of justice, equality, and meaningful change. For as long as I can remember, music has been my voice, my weapon, and my sanctuary—a way to channel the frustrations, hopes, and dreams of a world in turmoil.  

My songs are a reflection of the turbulent times in which we live. They are anthems for the marginalized, the oppressed, and the forgotten—those who bear the weight of systemic inequality, poverty, and injustice. Through my music, I aim to amplify the voices of minorities, the poor, the sick, and the downtrodden, shining a light on the struggles they endure in a society that often turns a blind eye.  

At the heart of my work is a call to resist the oppressive grip of the billionaire class, whose unchecked power and greed have eroded the foundations of our democracy. My lyrics are a rallying cry, urging listeners to awaken to the realities of our world, to challenge the status quo, and to fight for a future where equity and justice are not just ideals, but realities.  

But my music is not just a critique of what is wrong—it is also a beacon of hope. I strive to inspire others to join the fight, to look in the mirror and confront the uncomfortable truths of our nation’s bloody history. Only by acknowledging the past can we begin to heal and move forward. My songs are a tribute to the dreamers and the activists who came before us, and a call to carry their torch into the future.  

Above all, I seek to honor the vision of John Lennon and countless others who dared to imagine a world of peace, love, and unity. Through my music, I hope to contribute to that vision.  

Thank you for listening, and thank you for being part of the movement for change. Together, we can create a world where justice, compassion, and humanity prevail.

The Bartenders is a band founded in Toronto, Canada, by two passionate musicians: Johnny D. and Stephaan Rayes. This dynamic duo has mastered the art of modern blues, infusing it with soulful grooves and a touch of rock. Their signature track, Hey Bartender!, quickly struck a chord with music lovers thanks to its infectious energy and catchy riffs. Known for their captivating live performances, The Bartenders turn every stage into a vibrant mix of rhythms, blending classic influences with a refreshing modern twist.

Lotus Pastel is one of those rare artists who seem to exist slightly outside of time. Her origins remain undefined, with brief chapters spent in Tokyo, Seoul, and Tangier before finally settling in Paris. This rootless journey shapes her music: delicate, ethereal, and quietly fearless.

With a voice both fragile and luminous, she creates songs that feel like secret confessions, half-whispered and half-sung. Her sound drifts between dreampop, poetic electronica, and intimate pop, always tinted with surreal imagery and a sense of soft resistance.

In 2025, Lotus Pastel unveiled not one but two striking albums. "Ma Vie, L’Univers" opens like a diary scattered in the wind: playful and dreamlike on tracks such as "La Machine à Café a Pété", tenderly reflective on Je suis là…, and cosmic in its collaborations with Dark Earl (L’Univers) and OldNEO (Echoes of a Myth). Later that year, "Ici, Daba et Ima" expanded her palette, weaving Franco-Japanese moods (Yuki no Shita), Moroccan shades (Daba, Sous le bleu de Chefchaouen), and fragile nocturnes (Que la nuit m’oublie).

Lotus Pastel does not chase anthems, she builds atmospheres. Each release is less an album than a landscape, pastel skies, blurred edges, words floating like fragments of a dream. And in that liminal space, she is already carving her own place in tomorrow’s music scene.

Freelance translator, I'm also an amateur musician (don't have long experience but I'm determined to get better). I started to play the guitar back in June 2021. I enjoy listening to all types of music in which we can hear electric guitar or not. And if you plan to come and visit Lyon, gimme a shout. 

(Traducteur freelance, je suis également musicien amateur. [Encore peu expérimenté mais déterminé comme jamais]. J'apprends à jouer de la guitare depuis juin 2021. J'aime tous les genres musicaux avec guitare électrique ou pas. Et si tu passes à Lyon, fais-moi signe)
