MARGAUX : SINGER / DJ-PRODUCER Margaux

Watch ‘Margaux With An X’ – Live Acoustic Session I thought I would send you a little taster of the 'soon to be released' acoustic album 'Home Is You', which was recorded live whilst shooting the videos. In this acoustic session, I am accompanied by singer/guitarist Seb Mallen. Mainly based on improvisation, Seb and I like to challenge each other whilst performing, never knowing quite where either is taking the songs and this is especially the case involving ‘Margaux With An X’, a version that is quite different from the original dance track. The release of 'Home Is You' is currently planned for early 2008 a live acoustic version of several tracks previously featured on my albums ‘My Difference’ and ‘Margaux With An X’. Also in the pipeline: UK television appearance on ITV’s ‘Thames Valley Tonight’ on the 18 November 2007 at 6 pm. During the music feature of this programme the making of ‘Margaux With An X’ dance track video + an interview and live acoustic performance of ‘Ma Différence’ will be showcased. More news is coming soon and in the meantime: Happy Halloween !

Dans cette séance acoustique, je suis accompagnée à la guitare et au chant par Seb Mallen. Essentiellement basé sur l’improvisation, nous aimons nous lancer des défis pendant l’exécution des morceaux sans savoir où cela va nous mener. C’est particulièrement le cas pour cette version acoustique de ‘Margaux With An X’ qui est très différente de la version originale dance. La sortie de ‘Home Is You’ est prévue pour début 2008. L’album est une compilation acoustique de certaines chansons figurant sur mes deux précédents albums ‘My Difference’ et ‘Margaux With An X’. A venir : passage télé sur la chaîne anglaise ITV dans ‘Thames Valley Tonight’ le 18 novembre 2007 à 18 heures. On y vera le ‘making of’de la vidéo de la version originale dance de ‘Margaux With An X’ avec interview et l’interprétation acoustique de la chanson ‘Ma Différence’. A très bientôt pour d’autres nouvelles et d’ici-là : Joyeux Halloween ! Margaux http://www.margauxmusic.com/

Watch : 'Fly Me To The Stars' Just a little update on what is going on at the moment. Still busy writing and recording for my new album ‘With An X’, which is now practically finished. Not long to go now ! The other great news is that I have just pulled off worldwide digital distribution of my album ‘My Difference’. Within the next 3 to 4 months, it will be available with iTunes in all territories as well as other big online outlets throughout the USA, Europe, Japan and Australia. Amongst the big online stores are : MSN Music, Yahoo! Music, AOL Music Now, Sony Connect, Wal-Mart and Virgin to name just a few. I am particularly thrilled as this kind of distribution is usually destined for established record companies and their roster, and as an independent artist it is pretty difficult if not impossible to get ! Once my new album ‘With An X’ is complete, it will of course also be available for sale in the above download stores. Stay tuned for more exhilarating news ! In the meantime, enjoy the video ‘Fly Me To The Stars’, which was shot by the very talented video maker and TV presenter Damian Thomas; Make-up and hair by my favourite make-up artist, Beth Margetts.

Watch 'Love Deep Flows' This video is the latest addition to my podcast in iTunes and also the first. I thought I would share the acoustic version of 'Love Deep Flows' with you whilst working away on my new album 'Margaux With An X'. The acoustic version is slightly different from the album version, in particular the last section of the song, which hasn't got the change of key - and of course it hasn't got the whole instrumentation. I first wrote 'Love Deep Flows' shortly after moving to London, leaving Paris. I finished it a year later with co-writer GP15, which was to mark the beginning of our songwriting collaboration for my first album 'My Difference'. 'Love Deep Flows' was shot by the very talented video maker and TV presenter Damian Thomas; Make-up and hair by my favourite make-up artist, Beth Margetts.

Listen to 'Unrevealed' Feel free to listen and download the acoustic version of 'Unrevealed' a song that I wrote last year with a view to placing it with another artist. After finishing writing it, I decided to keep it in my repertoire for inclusion into a future album. The full band version exists as well, which will be available on my download store in the near future. In the meantime, you can subscribe to my podcast in iTunes : Margaux Music Podcast and get the latest audio and video additions for free ! The lyrics for 'Unrevealed' are embedded in the mp3 file.

Forthcoming album : 'Margaux With An X' I will describe in future posts how I am putting my new album together and everything that goes with it from writing the songs, recording them, selling them via downloads, promoting them, creating artwork, designing the website, podcast etc... Here's a little taster : Listen to 'Sieste Marocaine' More news coming soon...
