PAN M 360 / TOP 100 : Zaho de Sagazan – La symphonie des éclairs

· by Claude André

Not satisfied with having offered us the best French album of 2023, which will undoubtedly be dedicated to the Victoires this year, the young (23 years old) and charismatic Zaho de Sagazan was able to impose her innovative personality thanks to a tasty juxtaposition of old sounds 70s & 80s (analog and modular synths), a textual anchoring in the great French song Brel or Barbara style and an exceptional diction which makes the words crack like whips. She also gave us our greatest musical thrill of the year with her cover all in Vienna lace, on the album Simply Sheller dedicated to the work of the latter. When sublime and catchy melancholy rubs shoulders with madness as an antidote. To discover.
