LE COEUR AU VENT

HK's heart is in the air! With this new album, our street performer, surrounded by his lifelong friends, opens up more than ever. As usual, he offers us songs that are at once socially conscious, unifying, and catchy ("Un beau pays," "Une vie de reves et de combats," "Un peuple uni"); but this time he also includes more intimate songs ("Ciao l'artiste," "Le coeur au vent"). There are also songs where HK returns to his first love and rediscovers rap to better sweep us away, like in the heyday of M.A.P. ("L'Etincelle et la flamme," "L'Enfant sauvage," "Serrer les rangs"). Grand epics ('The Wind Rises"), small everyday stories that touch our hearts ('The Little Newspaper"), moments of poetic escape ('Happy Are the Doves"), romance, love ('At the Evening of a Long Journey")... The drums crackle, the bass rumbles, the violins soar, the accordion wanders, the brass section revels, the guitars rebel... And HK's voice resonates, again and again, relentlessly. 'I wanted to sing to make the bombs waltz, to cover the nauseating intentions with sound. Above all, I wanted to bring people together, without barriers of color, belief, or money."
