et si on commencait l'année avec l'EP de Eylia X Majeur Mineur?
On a disparu pendant 1 long mois pour reprendre notre souffle et faire ce qu'on sait faire de mieux : se poser pour découvrir de nouveaux sons frais. Les premiers à être passé sous notre radar c'est EYLIA et Majeur Mineur, qui ont sorti un des plus beaux EPs de 2018 et dont on se lace pas.
We disappeared for a long month to catch our breath and do what we do best: to sit down and discover new fresh sounds. The first to have caught our attention are EYLIA and Majeur Mineur, who have released one of the most beautiful EP of 2018, which we cant get tired of.
Déjà parlons un peu de la collab - Majeur Mineur c'est un producteur parisien que tu as pu voir passer surtout aux côtés de Lord Esperenza (si tu suis le rappeur de loin, les prods que tu as le plus kiffé sont très probablement signé MM) et EYLIA c'est une jeune chanteuse, parisienne également avec un bagage beaucoup plus soule et américain que MM. La première surprise dans ce projet c'est leur volonté de s'associer mais de rester eux-mêmes - pas de nom groupe créé à l'occasion mais une volonté de garde chacun leur blaze et leur authenticité. Et on en parlera jamais assez mais réussir à trouver un équilibre entre la volonté de collaborer avec d'autres gens et garder son identité et son style en tant qu'artiste est la plus belle chose qui puisse arriver à un projet. Et justement cet équilibre a parfaitement été trouvé avec les prod planantes et très réfléchies de Majeur Mineur et la voix soule d'Eylia, qui a gardé son style d'écriture et qui chante en anglais, ce qui donne un vent de nouveauté aux prod de Majeur Mineur qu'on avait surtout entendu sur des sons de rappeurs francophones. Et en plus de leur collab de base, les 2 jeunes espoirs ont trouvé un équilibre tellement stable qu'ils ont pu se permettre d'inviter d'autres personnes sur leur EP - entre autres la magnifique outro est signée Mikano ou encore en travaillant avec Art Of Shades sur la prod de l'incroyable Millie Jackson.
First of all let's speak a little bit more about the collab - Majeur Mineur is a Parisian producer that you may have heard on Lord Esperenza's projects (if you have heard any song from the french rapper, well it's very likely that your fav was produced by Majeur Mineur) and EYLIA is a young singer, Parisian as well with a lot more soul and with American vibes than Majeur Mineur. The first surprise in this project is their willingness to associate but to remain themselves - no group name was created on the occasion because they simply had a desire to keep their authenticity while doing a whole project together. And we'll never talk enough about it, but finding a balance between being willing to collaborate with other people and keeping your identity and style as an artist is the best thing that can happen to a project. And precisely this balance was perfectly found with the very smooth and thoughtful production of Majeur Mineur and the soul voice of Eylia, who kept her writing style and who sings in English, which gives a wind of novelty to Majeur Mineur's work, as we mostly discovered his work with french rappers. And besides their basic collab, the two young hopefuls found a balance so stable that they could afford to invite other people to their EP - among others the magnificent outro is signed Mikano and they worked with Art Of Shades on the production of the incredible Millie Jackson.

En fait si je devais décrire cet EP de la façon la plus simple possible je te dirais surement que c'est la première fois depuis que j'ai découvert Her que je me sens sexy en écoutant un projet. Toutes les vibes funk glisses dans ton oreille et te donnent envie de bouger d'une façon sensuelle, feeling encore plus accentué avec la voix de la jeune et très prometteuse EYLIA.
Actually, if I had to describe their EP in the simplest way possible I would say that it's the first project that makes me feel sexy when I listen to it since I discovered Her. All those funk vibes slide naturally in your ears and make you want to move in a very sensual way - and EYLIA's incredible voice is only making it best - or worst, depending on the situation in which you find yourself.
