Ben Popp

Heres a cool cd. A laid back tune with a sensual voice accompanying music with a wide ranging set of atmospheres. Sometimes it tends towards rock nroll, sometimes towards pop music or reggae, but its always hybrid. The French singing also reinforces the feeling one has of listening to something romantic whereas Ben Popp could be whispering into your ear horrible things about ordinary mens unhappy loves.

Theres a desire to dig into several corners of music even if this long cd remains coherent and marked by a style that the author found somewhere between easy listening and alternative rock. It starts with Romeo and Juliets love to end with the acknowledgment that we all are children of beatitude. Thus, even if it is obvious that this cd is meant to attack our senses with its rampant sensuality, it is also pretty sure to shake a few of our neurones by hooking us to its efficient melodies.
