« Not Your Enemy » par CEOz
A quoi sert le talent s’il reste enfoui dans des têtes bien faites, bourrées d’idées, mais sans haut-parleur ? PHILIP M., musicien, mais pas seulement (la quarantaine, il s’est imposé dans l'édition de logiciels, worldwide), compose depuis des lustres des paysages de guitares qui attendaient le bon destrier, armé de la voix qui les ferait voyager sur les ondes.
FANNIE BRETT, auteur, comédienne — cette franco californienne a tourné avec James Cameron (Titanic), James Ivory (Le Divorce) ou encore Cédric Klapisch (Le Péril Jeune)— danseuse classique, chanteuse, savait qu’au fond de sa gorge, sa voix attendait elle aussi, pierre précieuse à tailler dans un rock solide ou une pop suave et ensorceleuse.
Quand les deux se rencontrent en 2006 en studio à Paris, le déclic se fait. Les deux artistes se reconnaissent et lancent une OPA conjointe sur leurs entreprises respectives - la pluie a déjà fait ses claquettes sur leurs vies.
Le deal passé après audition sera CEOz Prod, label à part créative égale : CEOz c’est le nom que se donnent les boss aux Etats-Unis. Voilà qui éclaire ! Le compositeur apporte sa valise à trésors et met sur la table (de mixage) ses dizaines d’arrangements, écriture où les ordinateurs ont appris à écouter les guitares. La chanteuse franco-américaine, sculptera sa voix sur ce lit-là et tissera sa toile pendant dix-huit mois. L’opus en treize séquences, « Not Your Enemy » est achevé fin 2007 et mixé par STEVE PRESTAGE.
Le grain râpeux ou soyeux de Fannie Brett, c’est selon les titres, y raconte une histoire d’aujourd’hui… soit les attentes, les brisures et les résurrections, les souvenirs tendus, les étreintes brûlées, les fuites et les colères salutaires, vitaminées… autant de tranches de vie, mises bout à bout.
Bienvenu dans le jardin des errances de CEOz, et tant pis pour les pieds-tendres !
CEOz ça s’écoute et c’est Artsy-Pop-grungy-Rockmantick
English Bio:
« Not Your Enemy » par CEOz
Philip M. felt instantly lucky when actress Fannie Brett accepted his offer to collaborate as a singer - songwriter on his music. He actually found a complete and talented artist in Fannie.
In the beginning of her career Fannie Brett's talent as an actress did not go unnoticed, James Cameron, James Ivory and Cédric Klapisch offered her film roles in several of their major films (Titanic, Le Divorce, Péril Jeune).
When she discovered Philip's original music she felt inspired and realized she could finally use her professional expertise as an actress and her academic knowledge gained at Conservatory, UCLA and Cours Florent to write poignant songs and express the lyrics with her seductive and powerful voice.
Philip M. trained as a guitar and bass player since the age of 12 years old. Later on in his diverse career he became the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of his own successful company in spectrum management. In 2005 he decided and felt a real need to return to his first love, making music and invested in his own recording studio based in bourgeois Paris. Partners Thierry Othnin Girard and Laurent Abril both CEOs agreed to engage with Philip M. on the creation and development of their independent music label: CEOz Prod.
Inspired Philip M produced an abundance of music tracks but through his endless search for a singer he could not find the right vocal identity. After many disappointing auditions, he still hoped to find the right voice. Philip's inspirations and influences include: Nine Inch Nails, Peter Gabriel, Sonic Youth, and Radiohead, he knows his music needs an English speaking singer.
Fannie returned to live in Paris after 8 years spent in LA, she sent via a music website her demos to Philip M.. He immediately knew he had found the singer he had been looking for. They met in the recording studio in Paris and listened to the numerous tracks, Fannie left the meeting with 18 tracks and a week later signed a contract with CEOz Prod after sharing with them 2 proposals on "Intro" and "No Way".
After 18 months of hard work, writing, recording and pre-mixing 13 tracks, Philip and Fannie agree to call the album "Not Your Enemy", it was time now to find the right sound engineer who they could work with to emphasize the creation and soul of their existing Artsy-Pop-Rockmantick sound.
With his British touch Steve Prestage gives the album "Not Your Enemy" a seductive dynamic harmony between the voice and the music. The mastering of the album was made at the Metropolis in London by Ian Cooper.
By January 2008 "Not Your Enemy" is ready to be released onto the music market worldwide so that people can listen and dance to CEOz sound around the globe!
CEOz is Artsy-Pop-Rockmantick not for those who like the regular pop music sound, not for those who are lacking class...
CEOz is like a sophisticated grungy journey, sounding like the female singer of Reznor, with the rock melancholy of Beth Gibbons and a rhythm sound of Sonic Youth.

Hola amigos mios como estáis Ya perdí las buenas costumbres De hablaros a diario Pero es que la verdad Esto de Internet va muy lento Y da pereza de abrir las paginas Por si es poco solo me sale propaganda Creo que se metió algún virus A ver si ya me quitan el ADSL rural Que me han dicho que para finales Supongo que ya ira mas rápido Y sera mas fácil Y si es así me tendréis a diario Es que la gente se a puesto Internet Y ya lleva demasiada carga Por eso creo que va mal Pues lo dicho espero que pronto sea como antes Os deseo lo mejor a todos Y que tengáis una semana maravillosa Seguro que recordareis en el mes de mayo Que os conté que mi hijo me dio una sorpresa Quiero compartirla con vosotros Si os apetece verla aquí os dejo el enlace Los que la veáis ya sabréis algo mas de mi Esta en dos vídeos ya que en uno no podía ponerlo Os mando un gran besazoooooooooo Con todo mi cariño y afecto
