With class, Corneille ft. Aya Nakamura & Trinix

Two decades after finding fame with his album Because we come from far awayCorneille revisits his song With class in the company of the immensely popular Aya Nakamura and the French tandem Trinix. The adaptation, shared between the singer and the singer, rebalances the roles in this operation of seduction which is intended to be refined and where the voices are hyper-altered.

Peter Peter

Peter Peter fans will be happy: not only is the Quebec singer-songwriter announcing the release of a new album in April, Etherbut in the first extract, 20k hours of solitude, he also reconnects with the synths that he had abandoned on his previous EP. The song advances to the hectic rhythm of electronic music, but the singer’s still ethereal voice still diffuses this kind of spleen which has made his mark.
