Insomniac L**e

13 février 2009

Hello guys,

 

It’s almost one in the morning and i’m still waken up…i’m insomniac.

I aslo very bored because i have nothing to do.

In my boredom, I posted my 2009 edit of Something About Us on Youtube. Search for it, you’ll get it.

And as i am writing these lines, sleepy, i can notice that today is Valentine’s Day.

But for me, this thing is useless…i don’t know what love is…and i never came across it, so love, f**k you!

 

Later guys,

I’m off to bed.

Note that although what i said, there’ll be a special Precious Strands EP tomorrow on Valentines Day.

Happy day for the couples and a little “don’t worry, i’m with you” for those like me.

 

Cheers,
Nicolas.

Time for Change

25 janvier 2009

Hello everybody,

You maybe have all seen it on Tuesday whether it was on TF1, iTélé, EuroNews, BBC or the CNN itself.

The 44th President of United States, Barack Obama, the first black in the story of presidency, said the Oath of Office on Sir Abraham Lincoln’s bible.

The Oath was preceded by Aretha Franklin performing the U.S Anthem. And by the way, what a giant bow tie she wore.

There was also a speech by Barack Obama just before the oath ceremony. Many of the ancient presidents were present there mainly, George W. Bush, the ex-president, Bill Clinton and his wife, Hilary and many others that i don’t even know the name.

 

Actually, for those who missed the oath or for those who just want to see it again, here it is : 

 

 

Actually, i’m really happy of this because it was really time for change.

The world has now a hope to be better.

 

Let’s see what we come up with our today hero, Barack H. Obama.

 

Cheers guys.

…New Year 2009

2 janvier 2009

New Year Bloody Mod

Hello Everybody,

 

Happy New Year to you and your family.

Hope you enjoyed 2008 enough because you won’t see it again. All you have of it are simply souvenirs.

Me, myself, i’m sad and happy ; sad because it’s another wasted year of work and lost things.

But the only thing making me happy is that another year is also another chance to be better, to change.

And particularly, for adolescents like me, to change and to become more responsible, caring and…else.

 

Hope it’ll make you think bout’ what you’ll gonna do this year.

Just think bout this ; What will be your new resolutions for 2009?

 

Cheers,

Nicolas Strands.

Another Brick In The Wall…

Strands Designs & Vogler Coded Prods sont fiers de vous présenter TRACKLISTINGS, leur nouveau bébé blog.
Ce blog est en parallele au forum qui existait avant la création du blog.
Il a pour but de diffuser les sets de nombreux DJs tels que Martin Solveig, David Guetta, Joachim Garraud, Laidback Luke, Arno Cost et autres.

Donc, en bref, rendez-vous ici pour voir le résultat.  

Martin Solveig | C’estlavie (C’est La Vie)

29 octobre 2008

C'estlavie

Je voudrais partager avec vous cet album qui me fait craquer depuis sa sortie.

Après son premier album a succès, Hedonist, grâce a ses clips aussi bizarre qu’ils pouvaient être (Everybody, Rejection et Something Better), Martin Solveig revient avec un nouvel album plein de bonne musique à consommer avec modération. Cet album reprend un peu Hedonist avec ses voix facilement reconnaissable comme Jay Sebag qui pose sa voix sur le titre clé de l’album, Lee Fields et sa voix forte et grave ainsi que la belle Stephy Haïk, chanteuse de blues-jazz qui ajoute sa douceur a l’album.

 

L’album est sorti durant le trimestre dernier et compte déja deux clips et trois singles dont un a venir prochainement. Les voici :

1. C’est La Vie - Le premier titre, le premier clip…et aussi le titre clé. Cette chanson met aussi en valeur le symbole de l’album qui n’est autre que l’énorme oeuf que l’on voit à l’écran.

 

2. I Want You - Une chanson dont les basses ressemble au bruit d’un moteur de “caisse”. Une vrai tuerie de “tuning” qui irait bien dans la présentation de voitures. (Ford y a pensé, ca!) Un clip de voiture qui met en premier plan la sexy miss Alice Taglioni qui joue le rôle d’une laveuse de voiture.

 

Quant au troisième à venir, c’est “One 23 Four” qui laisse Chakib Chambi, le chanteur des “In The Club” mettre sa voix dessus. Ce titre plaira aux amateurs de musique car il sample les premières minutes de “The Prime Time Of Your Life” des Daft Punk. Mais ça c’est une autre histoire…
