Papillon—Soledad
French pop, vaguely 60s retro, hints of melancholy, but not too much. Acoustic and electric guitar, trebly synth organ, perc, full and layered. Their basic poppy sound has a dark 1960s tinge, with some forays into electronic noise. Even-tempered enough, but never quite happy-go-lucky; few, if any, major keys. Most vocals in French, some in English. The lyrics are dreamy and fantastical.
1. (3:54) midtempo, dreamy, some accordion
*2. (2:55) a little funky; reverb guitar and funky organ
3. (1:04) interlude of uneasiness; quick drum and electronic based instrumental
*4. (3:16) a little faster and loungy, groovy space nightclub; female harmonies and echoes
5. (3:29) organ and bell-like guitar, echoey, female ooo’s, lush
*6. (2:43) slower and slinky, slow Bond theme, wow-wow’s and organ
7. (3:24) midtempo instrumental groove, slow funk battling amelodic dissonance
*8. (3:56) driving perc. midtempo, organ and accordion, very 60s
9. (3:21) smooth and dark, midtempo, vocals in English about California.
10. (0:24) tiny perc. Interlude with
11. (2:30) more grungy sounding, electronic beeps and glitches, vocals in English; accordion
12. (2:19) perc. Tempo, funky bass, with electronic glitches, whines and buzzes; some guitar. Instrumental.
