© Lyrics by HELENE D'HERVILLY
Je veux bien être ton grand frère / Et ton compagnon de galère
Ton super ami sincère / Et ton partageur de prières
Ton défenseur d’un monde sans guerre / 
Je veux être Ton pote de virée si tu veux
De mousses de rires et de fumées

Je veux bien être ton ami / Celui qui rit et qui sourit
Celui qui t’écrit et nourrit ton esprit 
Quand tu t’es endormi /
La tête à l’envers sans un bruit /   
Je veux être Ton pote de virée si tu veux
De mousses, de rire et de fumée

CHORUS
Mais ne fais pas d’moi un dieu / Ne me propulse pas dans les cieux
Comme un trop vieux ballon creux / J’ai encore ce rêve dans le cœur
De pouvoir m’en aller sans peur / Avec mon djembe dans le dos

Je veux bien chanter avec toi / Tapper le djembe pour toi
Ensemble Elevons la voix / Te crier que j’y crois 
Te raconter un monde en joie / Où on rédigerait des lois
Pour les humains pas pour les rois

Mais ne fais pas d’moi un dieu / Ne me propulse pas dans les cieux
Comme un trop vieux ballon creux / J’ai encore ce rêve dans le cœur
De pouvoir m’en aller sans peur / Avec mon djembe dans le dos

Je Veux Bien - Club Edit

Ferreck Dawn Back Tomorrow

VINYL RELEASE: 9/23/2014
DISTRIBUTOR: Crosstalk International

Two of the Black Madonna's most sought after early tracks return to circulation alongside one burning new jam on Goodbye To All This, the latest release from Stripped & Chewed. 

Drawn from the Chicago label's 2012 compilation Livin' For The City EP, the piano dappled joy of "Exodus" luxuriates across side A, spreading the good word with a pounding beat. "We Don't Need No Music (Thank You, Rahaan)" from SCRS004 takes another whirl around the dancefloor, its pinwheeling horns and infectious vocals pulling even wallflowers into the fray. And in case two remastered sure-shots aren't enough, the brand new "Who Do You Need" closes the record with a soulful thwack: half uplifting house, half blistering techno -- all peak-time fodder. A fine addition to the Black Madonna's discography alongside records for Argot, The Nite Owl Diner, Hometaping Is Killing Music, and of course Stripped & Chewed.

Songwriter, composer, performer, Phil Swain started his musical adventures in 2013. Diversity in his music, depth in his lyrics characterise his style. A subtle blend of funk, jazz, house and groove afford the listener and the spectator a very special experience...
From his very beginnings in music as backing vocalist and drummer in a choir, his project was to create tracks composed only with percussions. But the idea soon evolved. Adding a melodic voice and chords were the starting point of a long series of eclectic compositions. His voice gained in subtlety and his style was enriched with various influences – 70s English pop, jazz, funk and reggae from the 80s, 90s electro, Drum’n’Bass, House and African music. To enrich his compositions, Phil collaborates with musicians coming from various horizons. He describes his style as electro pop, and has created his own electro biotope, influenced by funk, reggae, jazz and Latino music – a universe very much his own. 
He performs very frequently in Costa Rica, where he takes a big part of his inspiration. The incredible lushness of nature there allows him to recreate an atmosphere of universal horizons. 
In May 2017, he released his debut album, Evolution on the Move, with 11 tracks, distributed on digital platforms. We discover diversity in the musical style and depth in the texts... This album has the lush atmosphere of the vegetation that envelops the recording studio in which he works during his stays – as well the blue shades of hope that dwells in his lyrics, directed towards peace and harmony through self-change. 
The Buddhist philosophical influence in his texts give depth to his world. The meeting of nature and keyboards produces a wonderfully groovy ecological electronic music. 
Fluids of positive energy also emerge from lyrics that call for refusing the fury of the present world and enjoying the present moment. Each track reminds us of the urgency to respect our good old planet and the earthlings that populate it, sung in a very warm voice...
