Agathe's First Album !
<p>Hello everyone!</p><p> </p><p>Here comes my last but not least project !</p><p> </p><p> </p><p><img width="100%" alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/511207/Sans_titre-5-1525024128.jpg" /></p><p> </p><p>As you probably know, I've been playing music for some years now. In recent years I have written enough texts and melodies to make an album!</p><p><br /><br />I first considered recording an E.P (5 tracks) for which the artist <a target="_blank" href="https://www.facebook.com/noondessins/">Noon</a> realized this beautiful visual:</p><p> </p><p><img width="100%" alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/509614/0001-1524647640.jpg" /></p><p> </p><p>But finally, things have progressed faster than expected and so it's an entire album that I wish to record now :)</p><p> </p><p>It all started in Madagascar with the Teachers' adventure (already five years ago!!)</p><p> </p><p> </p><p><img width="100%" alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/511187/466939_10201085227442581_440410135_o-1524643139-1525021015.jpg" /></p><p> </p><p>But in fact I've been singing and whistling in my head since always, so at one point it has been necessary to let it out !! ;)</p><p> </p><p>I have been writing for a long time already and I remember perfectly the moments and places where I wrote each song that will be present on the album.</p><p> </p><p><em>Often between two trains or two planes, sometimes in front of the Indian Ocean, in Oxford, Rio de Janeiro or in my bed in Bergamo in Italy, or even in a hurry on a motorway area!</em></p><p> </p><p>So to make a long story short, music, I've always had it under my skin!</p><p>Recently I took a course at the music school <a target="_blank" href="http://www.lejam.com/">Le Jam </a>de Montpellier where I learned the necessary knowledge I needed to get started.</p><p> </p><p>Today I am very happy to be able to finally reach what seemed to be so far an improbable dream ...</p><p> </p><p>So after some <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vA_6mbxo5kE">fruitful collaborations</a> with my high school friend <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STSYPwGnZ-4">Krok Fadeur</a> </p><p>I decided to dedicate myself more to music to make an album that looks like me.</p><p> </p><p><img width="100%" alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/511024/22339545_1590875407649783_7557116573060128125_o-1524996522.jpg" /></p><p> </p><p><strong>So this album will be rich of cultural influences, with warm colors and real instruments, each song inviting you to a different trip !! :)</strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p>That's why I need a boost today, which will not be without compensation! Since in helping me to realize this project, you also offer you the pleasure to listen to a <strong>beautiful and sweet music</strong>, <strong>at the same time powerful and delicate</strong>, <strong>on simple texts and sometimes engaged!</strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p>On the album will also be present one of my compositions recorded in duet with the talented singer and comedian<strong> Jean-Charles Guichardot</strong>.</p><p> </p><p>And to top it off, the author <strong>Jean-Philippe Chabrillangeas</strong> gave me two beautiful texts that I set to music and will be present on the album.</p><p> </p><p><strong>So, are you joining the adventure? :) </strong></p>
<p>The funding will be used to fully finance the <strong>recording of the album.</strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The album will be fully recorded <strong>in the studios of Kiwi Records.</strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p><img width="100%" alt="" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/509277/kiwi-records-studio-enregistrement_275854-1524568996.jpg" /></p><p> </p><p>The team of Kiwi Records is at the top, they are young and dynamic, full of ideas and will!</p><p> </p><p>It is <strong>250 € per song</strong> for a day in the <strong>Studio and Mixing</strong> the track.</p><p> </p><p>So for <strong>11 tracks: 11 x 250 € = 2750 €</strong></p><p> </p><p>The <strong>Mastering </strong>(harmonizing all the tracks and optimizing the reading on all the supports)<strong> costs 70 € per song. </strong></p><p> </p><p>So for <strong>11 tracks: 11 x 70 € = 770 €</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>For making the CD: 500 €</strong></p><p> </p><p>In addition, the <strong>Kisskissbankbank commission is 8%</strong>. What makes for a goal of 3750 €: 3750 x 8/100 = <strong>300 €</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>At this point, we have already reached the goal of 2420 € !! Since I have already paid for the recording of 6 tracks with my own fundings. There are still 6 more to come and the making of the CD. </strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>If we manage to exceed this goal. I plan to make a new clip with my friend director Florian Dupas.</strong></p><p> </p><p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcw7EKPNcgzrUU0UIOOvoeg">Florian Dupas</a> is the founder of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.facebook.com/fdprod.audiovisuel/">FD PROD</a>.
