“I have known Khalil Chahine for a very long time and have loved his singular compositions. They all speak of him with modesty, as a writer would invent characters rather than indulge in a biography. We shared scenes, trips and a song, one of the most beautiful in my repertoire, "Clair Obscur".
One day, in front of the lagoon of Raïatea, while I was shooting a film with JM Barr and Gérard Jugnot, Khalil composed an air inspired by island solitude. We recorded it on the Nagra of the sound engineer of the film, at the edge of the lagoon, then forgotten in the vagaries of life that separated us. More than twenty years later, chance brought us together again to find intact the desire to work together, to give birth to what our two personalities have in common: love for the tropics, whether they are from Africa, from Africa. America or the Caribbean and Jazz. For a year Khalil composed and I wrote until we were able to present this project which is definitely the sum of what binds us together.
The texts, with the exception of one and a French / English duet with the admirable David Linx , are in French. Mes Suds is a journey, between terrestrial and artificial paradises, it speaks of islands and oceans but also of alcohol and addictions, anger and resilience. This is the album of a love and friendship story. " Viktor Lazlo
The musical basis of this album, Viktor Lazlo's thirteenth, is formed by a quartet with Cubans Felipe Cabrera on bass and Inor Sotolongo on percussion. On drums the Guadeloupe native Arnaud Dolmen and on the guitar Khalil Chahine, of Egyptian origin, well known for his talents as a guitarist and composer ... quartet on which Viktor puts his voice on 13 songs for which she wrote the texts and including Khalil Chahine composed the music and who ensures the musical arrangements. There are also Stéphane Chausse on the clarinet on several titles, Christophe Cravero on the piano as well as the violinist Leonor de Recondo. Finally David Linx, a close friend of Viktor for a long time, intervenes on a duet song (Bukowski) in order to bring an additional dimension to the balance of this album. In short, a record in which each musician will bring their own musical color through the varied origins that make up the team!
