Mylène Farmer et Julia : Discussion Générale

No, nothing about retiring is mentioned in the documentary.

Actually, the very last sentence of the whole thing is an extract of her preparing her entrance (being scared of heights) and saying "Next time I'll do a normal entrance".

The fact that the documentary ends on that note suggests that there is more to come.

 

This is pretty good

 

Thank God, I live in Spain and I don't have any of these issues. If anything, Bleu Noir, the album, became available on Spotify a few weeks ago, after having been removed from the platform for five years or so.

 

So I just received my En Concert vinyl, the 2018 reissue and I'm in love. I will play it later so I hope the sound is great, it's my favourite concert album from hers.

Does anyone know where to buy her stuff at normal prices? I realise that French music is expensive but it seems impossible to find Mylène's discography at a normal if slightly high price. The En Concert vinyl is 25€ in FNAC France which is very good (it's double and you get the photo booklet which is amazing). However, the only other vinyl available (Désobeissance notwithstanding) is Anamorphosée quite cheap but according to the Discogs reviews it is a shitty reissue regarding how it sounds.

 

I'm sorry for the double posting, but does anyone know how good the latest coloured Cendres de Lune vinyl sounds? It's available on the official store and I'm having doubts about buying it.

 

God, how could one possibly guess that that poor girl would become Mylène Fucking Farmer only 18 months later?

 

Not super on topic, but not sure where else to ask. Does anyone have any recommendations for other artists that make music that sounds like "Cendres de Lune," with that echoey, shadowy subterranean quality? It's perfect for the writing I'm doing now and I'd love to find more. I suppose it's not really a style I'm looking for, but more of an atmosphere. (And yes, I already know and love the Cocteau Twins.)

These also have that unique "Cendres" energy, I think:

 

Not exactly the same vibe per se, but your Cocteau Twins reference made me think of Faye Wong, especially her mid-90’s stuff.

 

Maybe the Heart Throbs album Jubilee Twist

 

Huge Faye fan, actually wrote a big chunk of my last project while listening to her. Not quite right for this one, but that late '90s imperial run is nothing but stone cold classics.

 

Is she preparing a new album for autumn as I readed?

 

Je n'ai pas choisi de l'être
Mais c'est là, l'innamoramento
L'amour, la mort, peut-être
Mais suspendre le temps pour un mot
Tout se dilate et cède a tout
Et c'est là l'innamoramento
Tout son être s'impose à nous
Trouver enfin peut-être un écho

 

Her 1999-2015 Albums will be reissued by Sony on 05/28/2021. 2CDs each with bonus discs containing the Full Instrumental Version of the Albums/Songs !! + 16 pages special booklets. They will come in small eco friendly cardboard boxes.


Sony acquired her 1999-2015 catalog and Universal own her 1984-1998 work. I guess that we're in for many re-issues to come this year again! Rumours about CD Singles/12'' of these eras are circulating already!
