Voyage to Mars, Munya | The duty

At first listen, the pop song by Munya (the Saguenéenne of origin Josie Boivin) seems too easy. The flowery melodies, the texts with simple rhymes, the soft and restrained voice, his nods to the pop of the 1960s coated with synthesizers, supported by a dry and catchy rhythmic story to make the proposal contemporary … On second listen, one notices the delicacy of the work – in the texts, first of all, Boivin having this gift of concealing important subjects under the air of a romantic ritornello. When you listen for the third time, you let go: it will now be impossible to get out of your head the choruses of Boca Chica, of Life is a dream (and his groove late-disco), languid For you or even Perfect Day. Obviously, the singer-songwriter and director (she surrounds herself with a few collaborators, but plays all the instruments) already masters all the facets of the production of a very good pop album. In addition, Munya herself designed her cover!
