French guy tryin' to write brit'pop music!

Featured Replies

Hello guys,

 

What a nice board of Coldplay fans :) !

 

I (try to) write brit'pop songs and I recorded few songs in my small home studio. I would be really glad to have your opinion even if I know it's quite rare that french people get success singing brit'pop :embarrased: !

 

Anyway, tell me what you honestly think about these two ones for instance:

> Alright (poppy song)

> Pull The Trigger (more rock)

Thx a lot mates! :smug:

hmmm......the links don't really work for me......

Yeah that's strange the html code has been messed up... anyway I put the direct links. I just wanted to make the mayout a little bit more attractive :blush: !!

pull the trigger is an excellent song.

I like Alright. It's got a "Good Day Sunshine" feel to it. Very nice. The trumpets in the backround are a nice touch.

Thank you guys :blush: !!

 

I'm happy to see that opinions are different.

Concerning Alright I was really happy with the trumpets and horns in the background but now that I set up a band to play my songs this one sounds really "empty" without all the brass section :( ! Need some money to hire more people in the band :D !!

 

Thanks again to both of you for having listened to them :blush: !!

No problem. I love hearing stuff that isn't poisoning the industry right now....that's why indie music is so good.

the poppy one reminds me of like, Travis, or Oasis or something I can't put my finger on...

 

In it's class (pop) it is a great sounding song. Though I don't care much for that poppyniss.

 

 

Pull the trigger is pretty awesome

Shiraz >> I totaly agree with you!

 

ClearAsCrystal >> Yeah Alright is quite an easy poppy tune and should remind other stuff :) ! I'm glad that you'd enjoy the other one. Thanks a lot for your coments!

 

BTW: I just fell in love with the last Elbow album (Leaders of the free world)

I can sitill make out the french accent though. But it goes well with the song.

sorry I made my best to hide it :P :lol:

 

Thank you dude ;)

You don't have to sound British.....I don't like their accent that much anyway. :P

Few ones already tried (Tahiti 80, Phoenix, etc) but it didn't really work :D !

Luckily we have AIR at least :P !!

 

But I wish we could have had Arcade Fire :smug: !

WE'VE got the Arcade Fire. Some of their stuff is pure genious.

  • Author

Yeah I saw the little flag under your nickname that's the reason I said that ;) !

BTW I saw them in concert this summer during the "Rock en Seine" festival (Paris) and theyr were just incredible :blush: !!

They probably were. I don't know much about other French music though.....there aren't a whole lotta internatonal supeerstanrs, if you know what I mean.

Yeah I know :cry: !!

anyway...keep up the compostitions and send them my way ;) :kiss:

Hahaha Arcade who? We've got Sigur Rós :D

Holy crap. I just listened to Pull The Trigger for the first time in ages. It sounds even more amazing now than it did the first 500 times I heard it. People, you have to check this song out!!!

  • Author

woahhh... :o

 

Don't really know what to answer to that :blush: ...

 

Thanks a bil' mate :smug:

it's on my mp3 player, and two of your other songs as well ("is this it?" and "come little daughter"). i don't think it sounds THAT britpop.....you don't have to force yourself to limit your music like that. you make so many different styles, actually.
