Extra musicians were recorded at <strong>Aeronef Studio by Antoine Karacostas</strong> (our keyboard player). We still need to record the piano and the vocal parts.</p> <p>  </p> <p> This album lyrics will be about different society subjects, as rape trivialization or Fukushima sacrified children, as well as some others more intimate, or lighter themes.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="304" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2FTgHAltJEYVo%3Fwmode%3Dopaque%26feature%3Doembed&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DTgHAltJEYVo&amp;image=http%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FTgHAltJEYVo%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="540"></iframe></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>A LOT OF GUESTS</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> White Note's project is ambitious. While we are clearly a rock band (folk guitar, electric guitar, keyboard, bass, drums), it's only an excuse to do music, in the wide sense. We are very influenced by any kinds of sounds or music styles, and we want to put this variety of influences into service for music.</p> <p>  </p> <p> That is why this album will make room to a lot of guests, whom we thank warmly for their involvment. The scores, written by Nicolas (singer), are remarkably well-performed, and the recordings already are wonderful!</p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong><u>Guests</u> :</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> - <strong>PHIA &amp; Josh the Cat</strong> : Australian singer and her acolyte that we met at the great <strong>Melodica Festival</strong> came to Paris to share a few concerts with us, and so they offer theirs voices as well as some kalimba on the track "Plan B", which will be very warm and welcoming!</p> <p>  </p> <p> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="304" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2FYAh9pLINX18%3Fwmode%3Dopaque%26feature%3Doembed&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DYAh9pLINX18&amp;image=http%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FYAh9pLINX18%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="540"></iframe></p> <p>  </p> <p> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="304" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2FLYGW6hH0Hc8%3Fwmode%3Dopaque%26feature%3Doembed&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DLYGW6hH0Hc8&amp;image=http%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FLYGW6hH0Hc8%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="540"></iframe></p> <p>  </p> <p> - <strong>wind instruments</strong> : you will hear <strong>Cyril Normand / french horn, Axel Rigaud / tenor sax and Léo Pellet / trombone</strong>, especially on "That's All Folks", of which you can find a <strong>live video at Bus Palladium</strong> below (here it's <strong>Camille Chemel-Arnaud</strong> playing the french horn).</p> <p>  </p> <p> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="304" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2FLcijUDMlZfo%3Fwmode%3Dopaque%26feature%3Doembed&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DLcijUDMlZfo&amp;image=http%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FLcijUDMlZfo%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="540"></iframe></p> <p>  </p> <p> - <strong>a string quartet</strong> : <strong>Olivia Benedetto / violon 1, Elisa Drame / violon 2, Emma Girbal / viola, and Juliette Serrad / cello</strong>. Strings tone will enrich considerably the album, and will bring so much expressiveness!</p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Kkbb2014_quatuor-1413918995" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/130392/KKBB2014_quatuor-1413918995.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p> - <strong>a choir</strong> : recorded in <strong>Saint-Denys de La Chapelle Church</strong> in Paris, with the kind permission of father Arnaud, the choir will shake the album walls powerfully! Made up of : <strong>Fabien Aubé (choir conductor), Oriane Laurent (soprano), Lisa Mancin (alto/soprano), Julia Drouot (alto), Atsushi Murakami (tenor), Jean-Damien Mottot (tenor), Pierre-Emmanuel Boré (bass), Pierre Beller (bass).</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> <img alt="Kkbb2014_chorale-1413920262" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/130397/KKBB2014_chorale-1413920262.jpg"></p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>ALL MINDS INVOLVED TAKEN OFF</strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> When we recorded AMITO, we invited a <strong>wind quintet</strong> to play on one track. This first experience with others musicians really showed us the possibilities of a wider instrumentarium, with extra musicians collaborations.</p> <p>  </p> <p> So, we've shot a <strong>video-cover of 'Welcome Home' (Radical Face)</strong> in march 2013, with <strong>Camille Chemel-Arnaud / french horn, Johan Blanc / trombone and Julien Thénard / trombone</strong>.
