Roza

Driven by passion and intense convictions, Roza crystallizes and embodies the aspirations of a generation. Between cries of the heart and songs of hope, the voice of the Belgian artist is now igniting "Système ouvert" (“Open System”), a first album embroidered at the crossroads of genres and continents. Under torrents of shimmering melodies, French song approaches its future without a blinker. Folk waves, electronic flights of fancy and neo-classical waves flow in a continuous stream on shores lulled by poetry. On tour, the Belgian artist pedals more than 1250 km on board a home-made solar cariole. On the roads of France and Navarre, the musician meets people to share her songs and live some privileged moments.

Recorded just before this incredible solo journey, Roza's first album questions her time and aspires to change. A committed record, aware of the realities and issues of the time, "Système ouvert" contains eight tracks produced with the pianist Antoine Flipo (Glass Museum). On synthetic layers or via a few acoustic arpeggios, woven with the help of a n'goni, Roza's voice is at the bedside of a world turned upside down. Never moralizing, always altruistic, the messages conveyed by the singer place innocence at the heart of a reflection that is as useful as it is urgent. Not far from the ritornellos hummed by Pomme, Camille or Emily Loizeau, the melodies of this first try rise from a curiosity for elsewhere, but also from a rare sensitivity. A self-taught painter, Roza designs her clips by hand: 4,000 of her drawings are juxtaposed in the video for "Si petite", while a painting she made is divided into 500 photos in the video for "Coule Amour". Under her brushstrokes or her vocal lines, Roza approaches humanity with modesty and modesty. Placed in the immensity of nature, our human relationships are exposed here without restraint or pretense. For it will take frankness and a little courage to write the future differently.
