Gaétan Nonchalant's second album, Le Jazz, explores a personal journey through a blend of adventurous French song and gentle psychedelia. Recorded at La Bergerie in the Corbières, a historic site turned creative space, the album was produced in collaboration with musician and producer Astrobal. It features eleven songs and was released on October 9 by Objet Disque/Kuroneko, an independent record label known for supporting experimental and eclectic music. The album includes collaborations with musicians such as Adrian Edeline, Vincent Guyot, Michelle Blades, and Aaron M. Olson, each bringing their unique style to the project. The sound of Le Jazz incorporates a variety of instruments, including guitars, Fender Rhodes, synthesizers, pedal steel, flutes, and saxophone. This mix creates a full and flexible pop style that blends traditional French songwriting with elements of psychedelic folk. The album’s music is rich in texture, allowing for both intimate moments and expansive soundscapes. It reflects a thoughtful approach to composition, where each track builds on the previous one with a sense of progression and exploration. The album's lyrics reflect themes of uncertainty and personal landscapes, with songs such as "Le Vent" describing the artist as a "poor tightrope walker" who follows the wind on the spur of the moment. This imagery captures the feeling of navigating life with a mix of vulnerability and spontaneity. The lyrics are poetic yet grounded, offering insight into the emotional and psychological terrain of the artist’s experience. The album's sound has been compared to artists such as Pierre Vassiliu, Richard Gotainer, Philippe Katerine, Joni Mitchell, Tyler, the Creator, and Étienne Charry, highlighting its eclectic influences and unique position within contemporary music. The album's voice is described as more direct, giving the songs a new confidence without dissipating their haze. This balance of clarity and ambiguity is a hallmark of Le Jazz, making it a compelling and immersive listening experience.
