After revealing three extracts, Dee Joyce<\/a> <\/strong>finally releases his very first album entitled \"Un grand A\"<\/strong>, exploring French pop and R&B sounds. These excerpts, \"Je te suivrai\"<\/strong>, "Flyer"<\/strong> and \" Malade \"<\/strong>, have aroused interest among French-language commercial radio stations in Quebec such as CKLE La superstation<\/strong>, Ici Premi\u00e8re<\/strong>, as well as community radio stations such as CHOQ (Toronto)<\/strong>, CKVL<\/strong>, CFBO Plus<\/strong>, CKXL Envol91<\/strong>, CKRO<\/strong>, to name just a few. The artist has also been interviewed<\/em> by NRJ Toulouse<\/strong> on the occasion of the release of his first single \"Je te suivrai\"<\/strong>, and has benefited from some playlist placements on Apple Music<\/strong>, especially in playlists \"Nouveau Franco\"<\/strong> and "New Music Daily"<\/strong>.

This 10-track project showcases a rich cultural diversity through the collaboration of Quebec, Swiss, and French composers. The album \"Un grand A\"<\/strong> offers a variety of sounds inspired by R&B, hip-hop, and rock classics. The tracks feature natural instruments such as guitar, piano, violin, and drums, while incorporating digital elements for a contemporary, modern feel. The album is divided into three phases\u2014up tempo, mid-tempo, and slow jam\u2014to create different moods throughout the listen. \"Un grand A\" <\/strong>is the result of many years of work and travel that have marked the artistic journey of Dee Joyce<\/strong>.

"A capital A draws its essence from true love. Since the advent of social media, we have noticed that we are increasingly losing the true notion of exchanges, of encounters, of courting, of seducing, and in the broadest sense of loving. With this project, I want to give back to the world the desire to love sincerely. Who says sincere love also says sadness and heartache."<\/em> \u2014 Dee Joyce<\/strong>

This album, from the moment it opens, explores the adventure of a love story. Dee Joyce<\/strong> boldly tackles the themes of seduction, carnal desire, and flirtation. Throughout the songs, the artist addresses commitment and evokes the deep feelings that arise in any relationship. Towards the end of the album, a note of tragedy is felt, evoking a love story that begins well, but ends sadly. The songs touch on betrayal, invite self-reflection, and finally address breakups. The artist highlights a range of intense emotions specific to any love story, which can sometimes arouse fear, but which also make us feel alive. As the singer so aptly points out, "Let us no longer be afraid to love and be loved. This is my message."<\/em>.

Two collaborators joined the artist in this musical adventure, namely Jihan Elo<\/strong> on the room \"Tout (I\u2019m done)\"<\/strong> and Soul <\/strong>on the piece \"Tourner la page\"<\/strong>. The third piece of the project, entitled \"Nous deux ce soir\"<\/strong>, is considered the flagship song, because it mixes his musical influences the most. We can hear harmonies in the Michael Jackson<\/strong> as well as drum sounds in a very rock style. The whole thing is brought by a funk and R&B melody, with sultry lyrics. It is thanks to this energetic tempo that Dee Joyce<\/strong> steps out of his comfort zone and gives free rein to his musical creativity.

The album Un grand A<\/strong> by Dee Joyce<\/strong>, which was mixed and mastered by Anthony Zappavigna <\/strong>and distributed by Bohemaa Communication\/Symphonic Canada<\/strong>, is now available on all digital platforms. Interviews are planned in the coming days, including on September 30 at 11 a.m. on the show Chad Damord<\/strong> on CIBL 101.5 FM <\/strong>and coming soon on NRJ Toulouse<\/strong>.\u00a0In addition, the official launch of the project will take place in person on September 30, 2023 at Bar La marche \u00e0 c\u00f4t\u00e9 located in Montreal.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
