Song mood board. – New video format Madame Figaro offers a dive into the inspiration behind the French band’s new title, here you go excerpt from his new album, Lucido Theater.
Images, memories, recordings or sensations. it’s a whole world at the beginning of the song. For the first episode of its new format devoted to music, which delves into the title’s origins and sources of inspiration, Madame Figaro met Marlon Magnée and Sacha Got from La Femme. Together in their home studio in the Paris area, they tell how it was born Here you gotaken from their new album, Lucido Theater.
A disc on which we do not hear, or almost, the two boys. But what gives pride to the musicians and singers they have surrounded themselves with since the beginning; a changing galaxy that Clara Luciani in particular was a part of. On Here you go!, it’s American Tatiana Hazel’s lilting timbre we hear, along with her words written in Spanish. “Et tu t’en vas”, French. a text that marks the end of a story, a necessary goodbye before falling in love again; “It’s a good song for anyone who’s broken,” according to Marlon Magne, who thinks the singer’s voice is a little on the Shakira side.
Real fake guitars
the musical side, Here you go! resounding with Latin sounds irrigating the whole thing Lucido Theater. The title intro on guitar (actually interpreted on the keyboard, easier to master) is inspired by Chan ChanBy Compay Secundo, the Buena Vista Social Club pipe that marked Marlon Magne in his childhood. Reggaeton’s beat, highlighted by a whistling “bird”, is typical of what’s flooding the pop world today. A Caribbean rhythm that the members of La Femme have learned to tame.
These myriad ideas are similar to those that inspired the song’s dreamy video; we see Tatiana Hazel, the veiled or teardrop succubus, advancing through the forest with two white horses under the night sky. Flanked by two guys, guitars under their arms, hidden by the brim of their big gaucho hats. In an atmosphere that evokes the two most famous performances at the same time Beauty and the Beast Disney and Jean Cocteau.
