Inspiration
Monesque has always been keen to create her own original sound/style. She’s been inspired by songs that really work regardless of style – you can’t beat a great melody, beat and riff.
She’s inspired by such artists as The Velvet Underground, Elvis Costello, The Go-Betweens, The Saints – Ed Keupper and Chris Bailey, The Doors, The Triffods, The Stranglers, The Beat, Blondie, Ella Fitzgerald Phil Spector's ‘wall of sound’, Brian Wilson, Elvis, The Church, Japan, Nina Simone, Neil Diamond, Glen Campbell to name a few.
Coming from an alternative musical background, Monique is also inspired by diverse musical styles such as “world music African, Middle Eastern, Indian, Asian, South American/Latin and native American Indian music); alternative guitar bands, soul, R& B, 50’s rock’n’roll, early 60’s ‘mod’ music, late 60’s psychedelia and acid rock, 70’s disco, funk, punk and junk, ambient, techno, electronica, rockabilly, psychobilly, indie, new wave, house, hardcore, folk, industrial, thrash, swamp, experiemental, blues, jazz, brit pop, hiphop, lounge, grunge, reggae, ska, classical and baroque”. Instead of copying, she decided from the start to create her own sound and find out what music she had inside. This process, once started, has never stopped.

No one else really but welcoming to comparisons if you can think of any.

How are you, Monesque & Novakade? Haven't checked in on you lately, so I swung by to wish you a happy thanksgiving & hope you are feeling well! Listen, I have another track up on my page, "Attack Of The Mushroom People." You can Hear it right Now, if you'd like at: www.myspace.com/psychedelicpablo OK, that's it for the shameless self-promotion.Thanks for being a friend. adios for now! Pablo
Hey there...whats happening??? Just wanted to let you know that I have my 2008 Demo CD up for download at purevolume. Definitely stop on by and pick it up because once its taken off, its taken off forever so get it while its hot!
Yo Monesque & Novakadeasaurus. I just found out that we're related...and as a special family only present we've made a new song for you called "End of Days" (start doing backflips now). It's an epic instrumental opus to the moment when our ancient Dino relatives saw a large fiery object plummeting towards them. Please come to our page, give it a listen and let us know if it makes you feel like something catastrophic is gonna happen. If the song upsets you too much we will be holding several s support groups (read: comcerts) in the near future. Check our page for locations, dates and times.
"Nocturne" est le nouveau morceau d'Allure. Il est en ligne dès maintenant accompagné de la plus belle photo de Gauthier Amano, pour Allure.
LOVE
Allure

New tune "Nocturne" is online right now ! Hope you enjoy this baroque autumn track. And please take a look to the best Gauthier Amano picture ! (the new one with the moon)
Please check out our video on YouTube from Battle of the Bands and leave a cool comment. It's one of our NEW songs and your page views and comments on Rockitz' YouTube page count toward our Battle of the Bands VICTORY!!! How about giving us a boost to the checker flag? Go to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBAmkityqfY Can you help me pass the word? Enjoy the jam... and thanks :-) - Jim
Forget about downloading our music on itunes etc... we've got something even MORE exciting.
You can now actually OWN a piece of the band. Instead of buying our cd right now - you can be a shareholder in our next one. It's a brilliant system - check it out!
You pick how many shares you want to buy - and then once the album is done, you start making money! :) And of course you can back out at any time. It would be really cool to have you on board for this.
Quelques news de deja vu: notre album "Roulette Russe" sort (enfin!!) officiellement le 09 novembre prochain (mvs records/anticraft)! Il sera dispo dans tous les bacs hexagonaux, sortie numérique etc...
Deux concerts en novembre pour fêter tout ça: le 17 novembre au Batofar à Paris, et le 27 novembre à la Marquise à Lyon (gratuit!!). Tu seras là?
