Shedding his skin, swimming against the tide of an image and clash-obsessed society, Fabien Martin no longer wants to be a smart aleck.
Written and produced between Paris and the Hautes-Pyrénées, this album is about journeys, paths we take, wounds that affect us and that others know nothing about. It features a collaboration with the impeccable Ours, on this theme of our inner labyrinths, and a duet with Jil Caplan, "Je ne fais pas que marcher dans les montagnes" (I don't just walk in the mountains), carried by a breath that is present throughout his music. He no longer pretends; it's no longer his age, no longer his life. In a mix of old piano and voice-altering software, synthesizers and sounds recorded along his way, with bass overdrive and epic saxophone flourishes, he achieved the sound he wanted. A cocktail of tradition and modernity, urgency and a desire to slow down.
