You might’ve never heard something like this before. Imagine a musical landscape where the delicate strains of orchestral music collide with the raw intensity of death metal, all set against the backdrop of French chanson. This is the extraordinary world Orphée Noah has created in “Feeling Mignon”.
Orphée Noah is an outstanding Swedish musician who has already made himself a name in the old continent and is ready to take his music to a global scale with the release of his debut EP “Feeling Mignon”. This six-track collection showcases the artist’s talent to mix all kinds of genres to create a new musical world.
Listen to the track…
Orphée’s style is simple, a normal guy who effortlessly pushes the boundaries of modern music with orchestral music, death metal, and French Chanson. Growing up, Orphée was exposed to all kinds of music styles, and he uses as many as he can in his music. These influences, developed with careful production, attention to minimal details along boundless creativity, are the elements that transform his music into a truly immersive listening experience.
For his debut EP, Orphée Noah created a collage of disparate sounds that give full access to his musical mind. Throughout the release, the artist goes from jazzy melodies to ominous synthesizers, violins, and rock anthems, and even includes a strange sound that reminds him of the noises he used to listen to at night in his old department. Chameleonic and unpredictable, somehow he stamps his signature sound in everything he does.
When it comes to his writing, there is no way to know what he will discuss next. In every track, Orphée shows the world his deepest reflections on society, happiness, life, and death. One minute you are immersed in a dystopian world doomed by excessive optimization, and the next you are facing the untraceable history and everlasting nature of our essence that surpasses death.
A standout track in “Feeling Mignon” is “Stuff That I Like.” It’s easily one of the coolest songs I’ve come across—an exploration of the simple joys in life, presented in a way that’s both nostalgic and thought-provoking. A list of amazing things, that represent reasons not to die. But it isn’t that simple. The song questions what is “real” and what is just a distraction.
Orphée is known for taking his concepts from music to stunning videos, and he has also released a visual production for “Stuff That I Like.” The inception narrative tells the story of the making of the video. In a fun way, the video delves into the topics of what is important and what isn’t, what is a real story, and how curious virtuality is.
“Feeling Mignon” is like a recording of exploring Orphée Noah’s mind. His talent and creativity, as well as his thought-provoking subjects, make the EP a masterpiece. It will surely leave a lasting impression.
