Hi all, Here's a french rock song. https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/ya-un-loupPhilippe Janin has written the lyrics, composed the melody and he sings. This song is not easy to translate. For example, " Y'a un loup " doesn't mean " There's a wolf ", it means that somebody wants to rip you off. This is a song about people who always pay each month because they have rented something. Nothing belongs to them. They are renting their freedom… RD RockHardLA^1 RT 1009 Electric Bass RT 697 Electric Guitar RT 2583 Electric Guitar RT 644 Electric Guitar RT 1856 Cello RT 1836 Solo Electric Guitar

Nice rocker all the way. The choice of RT's in a nice mashup of styles.
Good rock vocal also.
And the idea for the lyric is cool.
Rock on you two!
Enjoyed it.

Chris, you and Philippe have produced something quite unique and interesting.
I like the concept for the song.
And yes, it really does rock. Cool.

Dear 'chris37'... I regard you as one of the more eclectic composers on the Users' Forum, and your latest post, Y'a un loup, proves my point  !!! The sound of the'Real' band instruments is growling and aggressive, musically speaking, with plenty of dark energy that powered right through my body as I listened to it. And your vocalist, Mr. Janin, took control of his lyrics and hammered them out like a blacksmith forging his own language. In fact, parts of his performance sounded like supercharged rap monologue! Overall, the impact of the song supports the subject matter you described -- the idea that people don't 'own' themselves, or the time they spend on this earth, but just 'rent' their existence away, if I understood your point correctly. Powerful song-making, gentlemen! Truly, LOREN

Interesting to hear a French language rocker. Song hits with plenty of impact. Mix had me thinking I was in a intimate bar setting. Enjoyed the listen.

Great concept - though it could be countered philosophically, (déchirer la gorge des maîtres).
All the elements are cool.
Personally I'd change the reverb on the vocal as it sounds separate from the band. I think the vocal in best around 2.14 where it is at about the same level as the snare.
Terrific song.
Cheers

Hi Chris,
This is great!
I love listening to French. It's a language that settle so very comfortably on my ears.
This is a great arrangement, mix and overall presentation.
Phillipe matched your very-well-developed musical competence with excellent singing. What a team!
All the best,
Noel

Christian,
What fun to listen to this one! Not knowing French I have no idea what he’s singing about, but not sure it matters . . . you can kinda feel it. Terrific work on the vocal—and so well put together. Good stuff!
Regards,
Deej

I'm a a little late to get to this one - but I really enjoyed my listen I found it really unique in it's delivery, and the vocals suit the instrumentation perfectly. Thanks for sharing!
