\r\nWhat is the place, the role and the relevance of the audiovisual media in a musical project? In what ways are artists, filmmakers and their teams adapting to the new tools and formats at their disposal? What initiatives are being developed to encourage the creation and distribution of Belgian music videos?\r\n<\/p>\n\n\n
Last June 9, the author-composer-performer ML<\/a> unveiled her new EP, the sublime Ailleurs n\u2019existe pas<\/em>. A project with seven tracks, intermingling alt-pop and indie rock, carried by heady melodies and a lyricism which is simultaneously honest, poetic and honed. A fundamentally sincere music, therefore, reinforced with an aesthetic which hits the mark: striking colours, a 90s look, a curtain fringe and a hand-written logo, a human image which brings to mind Maggie Rogers, Ang\u00e8le and Lou Doillon. This visual identity is to be found in every nook and cranny of the ML project, and in particular in her music videos: whilst the film of \u201cRessaisis-toi\u201d<\/a> places her on stage in a variety of settings \u2013 at times wearing a baseball T-shirt, a Walkman in her hand, her body spinning to the rhythm of the music in a Paris apartment, at others meandering in the changing rooms of a sports club donning a magnificent Fender Stratocaster \u2013 the one dedicated to \u201cCr\u00e8ve d\u2019ennui\u201d<\/a> transports us straight to the beaches and shingles, into the fields or alongside a stream, bringing to mind, without any filters or gimmicks, the freshness and spontaneity of this artist fully expressing her exuberance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
