Popp music, whatever ? french alternative rock

24 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Modern Rock, POP: Delicate



Details:
Heres a cool cd. A laid back tune with a sensual voice accompanying music with a wide ranging set of atmospheres. Sometimes it tends towards rock nroll, sometimes towards pop music or reggae, but its always hybrid. The French singing also reinforces the feeling one has of listening to something romantic whereas Ben Popp could be whispering into your ear horrible things about ordinary mens unhappy loves.

Theres a desire to dig into several corners of music even if this long cd remains coherent and marked by a style that the author found somewhere between easy listening and alternative rock. It starts with Romeo and Juliets love to end with the acknowledgment that we all are children of beatitude. Thus, even if it is obvious that this cd is meant to attack our senses with its rampant sensuality, it is also pretty sure to shake a few of our neurones by hooking us to its efficient melodies.

It is a very minimalist and intimate cd, at times surprising, for which comparisons sometimes lack, and which subscribes to the line of French sung songs, with a bit of glamour, a bit of sadness and melancholy, sometimes even some seriousness. You will hook up to it or not, for sure, because you will enter in its world otherwise it will remain tightly shut.
JPM (Music review)

"Maybe it's because he sings in his native French, this makes the songs intriguing. At a push Benjamin could be compared to Serge Gainsbourg with those french sensibilities, it's the "Creme de menthe" as Dell Boy would say." (intomusic.co.uk )


Ce disque est définitivement la meilleure façon de découvrir cet artiste de grand talent et il vous donnera le goût d'en écouter plus si vous aimez la bonne musique pop.

« Même pas peur » est une excellente compilation, de celles auxquelles rien ne manque, et qui n'ont pas non plus quelque chose en trop. Parfait pour commencer à connaître l'uvre de ce génie méconnu, Ben Popp, qui s'apprête à en surprendre plus d'un.

âMême Pas Peurâ, a pesar de ser un recopilatorio, parece ser un disco de estudio más. No da la sensación de que las canciones estén metidas con calzador en el cd y mucho menos que se hayan escogido los tres singles de turno. Aquí hay calidad y talento de principio a fin, todo parece pensado y calculado hasta el más mínimo detalle.
