DeLaurentis | A new album and an exclusive playlist!
DeLaurentis is a French musician, composer, producer and performer. She has just released her new album, titled Musicalism, available since last January 17. The dozen tracks on the album alternate between contemplative music and tribal rhythms, making her voice the main character of these sound films, which does not prevent her from inviting Swedish artist Jay-Jay Johanson and Japanese duo Osteoluco, who appear respectively on the tracks “The wooden house” and “Golden kids”. Each track here represents an emotion or feeling linked to a color; DeLaurentis composes and performs them on the keys of her musical palettes, a new lutherie of electronic instruments that she perceives as extensions of her body and vocal cords.
Her musical career began in 2015 with the release of a debut eponymous EP, followed by three other EPs: Brand New Soul (2016), Big Part Of A Big Sun (2018) and Big Part Of A Big Sun (Remixes) (2018). It was thanks to this last project that she gained international attention in 2018, when the title “A Big Part Of A Big Sun” was synchronized in the American TV series “How to get away with murder”. The following year, this same work was also used on the advertising campaign for the Citroën C3 WRC. DeLaurentis followed up recording the EPs Classical Variations Vol.1 (2019) and Carousel Of Mine (2020).
In 2021, she released her first album, called Unica, which she remixed two years later under the name Unica (Remixes Deluxe Edition). In 2023, she released the opus Classical Variations Vol.2, a project on which she revisited the classical music repertoire and used artificial intelligence tools. That same year, she co-produced Isabelle Adjani’s album titled Bande Originale, for which she composed the first single Les Courants d’Air, with Gaëtan Roussel and Pascal Obispo. She has also had the opportunity to collaborate with Mike Oldfield, Elodie Frégé, Vapa, Nolwenn Leroy, Marie France and Alain Chafort or Deep Forest. In 2024, she received the Grand Prix Synthfest from the Union Nationale des Auteurs et Compositeurs (UNAC).
To accompany the release of her new album, DeLaurentis has developed an exclusive playlist for What the France which brings together some of her favorite made in France songs. Featuring tracks by Rone, Maud Geffray, Agoria, ATOEM, Laurent Garnier & Alan Watts, Lucie Antunes, Paul Sabin, Kompromat, Molecule, Irène Drésel, Calling Marian, LAAKE, Thylacine, Lydsten, Zimmer, Oklou, Léonie Pernet, Chapelier Fou, The Blaze, François 1er, Fred Nevché & French 79, Les Gordon & Sauvane, Romane Santarelli, Telenoia & sy_am & Jumo or O’o.
