Tag: Single Review: Juilley L’amour et l’azur

New Audio: Juilley Shares Brooding and Sultry “L’amour et l’azur”

Juilley is a Laval, France-based singer/songwriter and poet. The Laval-based artist released her full-length debut La nuit ma disparue back in 2020. She’s also one-half of the electro pop duo raoduL branK.

Since the release of her full-length debut, she published a collection of songs and poems and her latest EP, the recently released Giflant le vent. The EP’s latest single “L’amour et l’azur” is built around a trip-hop meets film noir-like production featuring skittering beats, atmospheric and squiggling guitar and a supple bass line paired with the French artist’s sultry delivery. Sonically, the result is a song that brings Portishead and Anika to mind. But as the French artist explains (in translation) “we are immersed in a hand-to-hand combat with nature and the song addresses the question of ‘loving’ reconciliation. So, when the state of love is no more what is perhaps essential remains: absolute love, love beyond . . .”
