I just copied into Google translate.  Worked well.

Sounds really promising JF... Can you rate it from 1/10?

So there are solo's it seems... Nice! 

[Love Expresso]

I absolutely love what you have written, JF! It is so much more worth when it comes from someone like you who knows MK and DS as an fan/expert and not "only" as a journalist. You described the songs very good and it was very uplifting for me to read certain song names as a comparison in it. I am not able to say  how you liked it, though.

Thanks for your Review!

these are just first impression at a firts listen..

I may write other things later...

@dutchessy, it's difficult to rate it now...

I'd say it has the Tracker mood, as it is low, calm, a little bit americana, but with an overall production-sound that made me think more to All the road running or DTRW, in terms of global sound

and I think that Deepl is even more accurate

Merci beaucoup JF!

What's your favourite song(s) at first listen?

What's your favourite song(s) at first listen?

I'd say One deep river, this one not going to end well, and two pairs of hands

but it may change quickly

Tunnel13 (some interviewer compared it with DS/BIA), scavanger's yard and smart money sounds good in your description... Are they any good?

yes they are good.

as for Tunnel13, I thought to kingdom of gold, more than BIA,

scavanger's yard is a bit strange. some bits like good on you son or back on the dancefloor

smart money sounds good, but I prefer when the guitar sounds "crunchy". Here it's 100% clean. I am listening to it again now, and yes it's good.

it's obvious I need more listen 

What I wrote could be different and more developped, as I listening it for the 2nd time

Thank you!

I like the solo and guitarsound on Nobody's got the gun, if it's something like that it must be goooooood

Enjoy listening! *not jealous at all*
