Origami Platypus Diagrams

Dorémus Avenue

Dorémus Benedict will go far. Two discs, YOUTH HAPPENING (2007), 2020 (2010), and already three or four songs in concrete: false write, I sing with the left hand ; Paris; the other side of the comp ... It is also the first songwriter from Muriel Huster in 1977 (Song of hoodlum ) which has registered Renaud lyrics and music, Nothing to put you on RED BLOOD (2006).
As has been done before on this blog Françoise Hardy, Louis Bertrand, Lynda Lemay and Peter Schott, Dorémus responds within a few naive questions arising while listening to his most recent CD.


" When I shower more than ten minutes, I think the polar bear j'bute " you say in Carbon opens 2020. A crooner Auvergne, known for his taste for provocation, said recently that he does not see himself singing the ravages of climate change or any other topic societal, the only topics of interest being in his love and to death (in Mountain , 09/29/2010) ... How do you stand on the chessboard variety between, say, Jean-Louis Murat and Patrick Fiori?

Dorémus - Sacred Brassens, it's easy to be right when you're dead ... This famous theory often annoyed me. It's like I told you that only two kinds of films are of interest: the love films and war films. It's not a bit dumb? Maybe he wanted to signify that lurks behind every theme of love always, or necessarily dead?
As a writer, I feel particularly close to those who speak in first person, who can put some of themselves in their texts. Renaud, Alain Souchon, are two examples. To listen, I think there are so many themes of songs that are emotional, and all are worthy of interest. Perhaps, however, are there only two ways to do this: anger or poetry.

How are the others? an inventory of vices and neuroses of the century. Does he want to hurt when one tries, in 2010, claiming to make a living by making the singer?

- Make the singer does not seem to me more than anything else ... barjo I written Com ment will others? to remember that there are a thousand ways to suffer a thousand degrees of suffering, and can be amused. I strongly believe that being singer can sometimes serve to relieve the other, and I was too lazy to do medicine.


What would you advise the bourgeois struggle against overweight? Those in period of diet eat out to eat soup and talk about how they tried every diet in vain .

- I would advise them to fuck anyway.

You sleep against the light evokes inspiration, sometimes explosive, which can evaporate if we do not sleep soon ...

- Often, my songs are born from a phrase that I like , that turns and comes back until it finds a girlfriend. Other times, it is a theme I wish to address, and it was then that revolves around me, wondering what angle you have to attack.
I do not write easily. I take this to the bottom of precious moments "that" is coming, and this question comes up regularly writing in my songs. In the best case, the music comes together with the text, but these are often parallel projects. And then, I need a muse ... it simplifies many things.

Speaking of museums, among the four major museums of the French song (Lolita S., his mother, Brigitte B. and Charlotte G., fifteen of them four beads you ...), which happens it humming?

- Well it's funny, yesterday I Knocked lead a good time ...

Dozens of songs were written about Paris, including a few monuments ( Trenet Revoir Paris, In Paris of Lemarque , is five hours of Dutronc Renaud Rouge Gorge, Left Bank of Souchon ...). Yours fits on this avenue. Remarkably written, stormy, intriguing and modern, it offers new images (" I love Paris, I love Paris, I love Paris! / When a thunderstorm / Our agan to Abbesses / Dead Silence Les Halles / For Once in Barbès, tien s / It's Palais Royal! ). How did you get the idea to add a title to a Bottled list already?

- is a singer girlfriend, Chloe Robineau, who suggested I write about Paris one day I had to be particularly grumpy. I had already noticed that whenever a thunderstorm broke out in Paris, the city turns and floats out of time. And I started doing this overview of Paris that I hate and love both.
The amount of songs was dedicated to Paris does not make me afraid, on the contrary, I am pleased to have brought my small stone to the edifice. However, any I had to say was that song I asked for time.

A song that does not fall into the "corny puns contest ! Nod to the father Vachard Perret ( Bercy Madeleine ) and Marc Lavoine (Paris )?

- Yes. I would not let me go to a song puns or "dropping spot". With all the respect and admiration I have for Perret, this is not what I wanted to tell Paris.


" " Poor old man, going / What you want, what / You're the loose! / Y me come one, there is twelve worry " . That is the refrain of what could be a tube radio ... A fun song, a haunting melody that recalls the early success of Renaud. Not want to shake some radio programmers ?

- Si

A "no" dry and finally determined by the Yann Moix, would have had to look! ... While painters and sculptors have consience of being misunderstood, not to stick at the time, to be ahead or behind, and it accomodent. All writers are believed to have written a masterpiece, but know that there is little chance that the public benefits. Thanks to radio, the popular success e st to reach the ears of the singers! Yet it is not always the chans ons best written benefit to the creator ... Question: when writing the loose You got believed to be the hypothetical success by saying: "Look, I have a tube, "or this song it is a title among ten others?

- To hell with the panache, I'm not a painter or a novelist, I am doing song, art minor immediate popular and rooted in its time more than another. Being misunderstood does not satisfy anybody but this is not my case, since you're here!
radios are a great way to make themselves known, and therefore to make beautiful shot. It is also a priority, an important issue in this industry, it is impossible to ignore when you work everyday with a large record label.
I realize that large national radio stations can not help that few young songwriters. But it is never enough, it's true. For my part I am issued regularly, I can not quite is to complain. I wrote
You got the loose! tribute to a friend subscribe to the jinx. I realized quite quickly that she liked a lot, first to my friends and my fans for whom it became a hymn, each convinced he had the loose more than another, which is surprising and comforting in a sense ...

the other side of the computer is the other " great " song of the album (with Paris), because It opens with a thematic class, that illegal downloading. " Two seconds to tell you about my apple / That may be my last album " .

- And yes, it seems, the music has seen better days. I always wanted to do this job and do this, year in and year out, is a great satisfaction.
way out of crisis? If I knew, my good sir ... No idea. The game is very well, him. However, the carrier is a disk too ... and really more expensive. I do not understand everything, you see it is better that I keep writing my songs.

Is this a topic of conversation among singers, worry? Weird, but it seems that it is the former, led by Françoise Hardy , Jean-Claude Carriere, Jean-Jacques Annaud, who were initially mobilized in this fight against illegal downloading, Francoise Hardy affirming c arrément with courage and common sense will "defend his livelihood! And you're the first to have written on this topic.

- I'm like a guy who was born during the war: I have not experienced the good old days when disks were sold to shovel. I am very supportive of the "old" course. We need singers, songwriters, composers, are paid fairly, like everyone working hard. A society that takes care of its artists and protects its crazy, it's a sign of good health.
Obviously, many artists suffer, like many trades, after all. It is a difficult time that we live, although it is very fun to fiddle with an iPhone.
We must try not to get too scared and strive, in moments of optimism, having nothing to fuck, which gives me the opportunity to quote Khalil Gibran: "And what is the fear of poverty if poverty itself? "
course we talked about, among singers. And I look forward to talk about something else.

Patience, young man, you have "both feet in " but re-entered the market (rai) t, according to Pascal Negro (see "No infringement," Ed Fayard) ! Since yesterday is a duet with you interpret Firefly. Why this subtitle: Act II ?

- Two feet in features a teen runaway who addressed his parents. This is the first song I wrote for this new album, so I could start very soon to sing on stage. Blown by a spectator after a concert, I had the idea to write the following logic: the response of parents to their son: Since yesterday, Act II . So I had a mom, and my art director at EMI, Jorge Fernandez, who told me about Firefly, I did not know. I immediately liked his tone and his phrasing slam that stuck very well to the flow of my song. She is an artist well worth the detour and I advise his first album SHADOWS.


not common to find a title like Calumet ( j'touche The first thing in the morning / This is not a rosy mouth, it's not hands p'tites / It's not beautiful hair, no ass / Just what I want, damn, it's a fucking ass gasket ") who does not condemn nor n'encense, but set .

- This is a shameless song, I'm afraid. It congratulated me as we made me reproach. Indeed, it is not taking a position on the firecracker but a pretext to evoke some emotional again ...

Unusually is the song X CD. In the genre, you tend Love on the beat (Serge Gainsbourg), Provided they are soft (Mylène Farmer), I'm Galileo (Renaud) or Where you dare not Lorie?

- A choice not obvious, but I would rather Mylène on this blow. Should not ask me why ... probably that I project myself, when I listen X ... a song I like but ... Renaud

" You know the guys causing the girls to undress them / And if they strip off the guys / That talk ( Bint secondhand ). Could appear in "The book quotes" Claude Gagnère, Robert Laffont.

- When there is the banter at the cinema, I enjoy of course ... But wherever they are fine words always make me jump. In the street I sometimes slow down to listen to the conversation casually, and I picnic full of formulas, hey hey ... poets sometimes unaware.

You say on stage to present 2020, when you listen to Renaud made, he did not understand the song. Retail reassuring power r those in your audience have beautiful listen but do not always understand! What does it speak?

- This is a letter I wrote to myself, and should not be read until 2020. Some songs are immediate, others require several plays, have several degrees of reading. There are sometimes that we do not understand nothing, but we love, right?


On your debut, Sarclo, guitar, Renaud, all this is the legend?

- When I told this story recently Renaud, it was going to do five years, he opened his eyes wide and we said that time, really, this little bastard, flies ... The meeting was a tremendous boost for my career. Until then, it happened not too bad, I was singing in small venues in Paris and "art" slowly began to look at me like I was interested in him.
In Switzerland, I met Sarcloret of a singer like no more and longtime friend of Renaud. Sarcloret seeking a pretext for introducing me to Renaud. He then told me an old guitar, a nice Martin 1930s, I was asked to go back to Renaud. It was already a sacred event for me of course. But not mad, between vous and intimidation, I had the guts to run it at the same time my self-produced disc, NOT TALK . He first bitched making me understand that it's probably not listen but began to read the words before me ... hello slip ... Then he looked up, shook my fishy ... Two days later he called to offer me to become my producer. Re-bonjour underwear (another).
What I also love about this story is that this friendship lasts, we've got to know - which is not evident every day. Sarcloret me is one of the greatest gifts of my life.

For the finale, you can get one of the following three advantages. Which do you choose it? The hipped Shakira. Marc Anthony's voice. An appointment next Victoires de la Musique category "Newcomer of the Year" Price since Constantine has not seen fit to keep you.

- The hipped Shakira without hesitation. I'm not far, I have an ass hell. And the rest should follow ...
