Interview Of Mandoaa Dragonash

2011-10-27T02:51:00.000-07:00

The 19th of October, Le Cercle des Voyageurs (LCV) was very pleased to recieve a great artist and also a great entertainer : Mandoaa Dragonash (MD). His show was broadcasted on our partner radio, www.jetsetliferadio.com/, and it was an amazing performance, he rocked the audience with his voice and his guitar. So now an interview of the artist...

LCV: Where do you come from?
MD: I live in St. Louis, Missouri in the USA now.
LCV: When and how did you start music in RL, and in SL?
MD: Well, I almost always have my guitar in my lap when I am on SL. if not, it is closeby. So I started hanging out with friends that would always be in voice chat and I would play. One day I went to a busy sim and started playing and about 30 people showed up. So the land owner shows up and started booking me....then I started to get noticed. RL...I just started playing my guitar when I would be sitting at home on the computer. It was about 7 years ago.
LCV: Why guitar? Someone inspired you? Or did you feet like "hey, guitar seems to be the coolest instrument" ?
MD: In 2004, I was married, living in Canada....my wife came to me and said she wanted a divorce, I said "well, I want a guitar"...it just always seemed like an instrument that you could play by yourself and have a decent sound. You don't need other instruments to help you make songs. Best trade I ever made, you get WAY more women with a guitar than you ever would with a wife :P
LCV: lool
MD: :)
LCV: Did you discover a love for music at this moment? Or music always rocked your life in some ways?
MD: I ALWAYS loved music. As a kid I grew up dancing, I listened to mostly hip hop and rap then but music was huge in my life .Mostly street battle type stuff, breakdancing was huge where I grew up. So if you were good enough on the cardboard box in the middle of the street, you didn't have to fight your way home :D
LCV: You danced break and hip hop??
MD: Yeah, we were one of the only white families on theblock. Lol, kinda grew up in an urban environment.
LCV: So you have the rythmn under the skin :)
MD: Lol, yes. In high school and after, I would be in dance competitions at nightclubs.
LCV: I'm impressed, i always wanted to be a breakdancer.
MD: If you are white and have good rhythm, you can get almost as many women as with a guitar ;)
LCV: looool! Women are the best reason to improve in all :D
MD: Though some would be reluctant to approach me because they thought I was gay (because I had good rhythm). Poor girls
LCV: lool, I bet you had enough to forget those ones :D
MD: yeah, I paid enough money for all them :P I'm kidding.
LCV: So you don't do hip hop with your guitar, what kind of artists inspire you now?
MD: I do play some hip hop...most notably, I do some Outkast, B.O.B. and Bruno Mars covers, as well as others. But I like anyone that creates music that makes me feel something, whether its like dancing...or running...or just thinking. Music that gives you chills the first time you hear it, thats always good
LCV: Yes i agree :) Music seems to take a big place in your life, is there something you want to transmit now that you have the possibility to play it?
MD: I just like seeing people have fun. I play at a lot of open mics and one of the bigger ones here (RL) a lot of people play slower stuff and slower tempo. I come in and throw something in the mix and people are up dancing or clapping and singing along. I try to play that kind of music.
LCV: Yes :)
MD: There's enough people out there telling you how to feel or what to do, I'll leave that up to you to decide....all i'm saying is "Have fun doing it" and don't take yourself or anything else too seriously.
LCV: Exact. So about those open mic in RL, tell me more, about your real musical experiences :)
MD: Well, i've played for a couple people in coffeehouses to a couple hundred in bars. I havent pushed my music too much as it's a hobby and I have to focus a lot of my "real job" right now. But now that I have finished my graduate degree as well, I have more time to focus on fun, which includes the music :D
LCV: So maybe some artistic plans in RL? :)
MD: I mean, I like playing music...and I've recently been talking to a couple musician friends about putting together a band of sorts. Nothing too serious, but at the same time, getting out and playing a lot more. People have a great time when I play and I like seeing that. I've even been working on some collaboration stuff with a friend in Los Angeles on some music he makes (he does hip hop songs using some of my guitar riffs and vocals)
LCV: Oh?? nice :) On a CD or else?
MD: Well, he has connections with a lot of independent film makers and stuff...so, maybe someday one of my tunes will be on there. I don't plan on anything big would ever come of this, but I'm not against putting a little work in and having something come from it
LCV: Hey, Hans Zimmer , watch out, Mando is in da house ! :D It woud be great :)
MD: Right...Its a David Guetta mix featuring Mando LOL
LCV: lool
MD: Me and that lil freaky Keenan Cahill kid on a YouTube video
LCV: :D So you still often play in RL?
MD: I do, and working on doing that more;
LCV: Finally for a hobby, it seems to be a real passion you enjoy to share.
MD: Yes, I do enjoy it. And I enjoy seeing and hearing people's reactions to coming to a show
LCV: And in SL? you told me how you started, now tell me about your experiences in SL on the different stages.
MD: SL is weird...you have a huge collection of people who love to listen to live music. But you also have a huge collection of people who see that and think they can do it just as well. Its work, to learn the songs, to work on playing them, to write music....and I think there is a lot of SL music that is great and a LOT of SL music that is not so great. As a result, you have GREAT audiences that show up and you get a lot of "haters" as well. Personally I welcome both
LCV: lol
MD: But the internet makes a lot of people bolder than they would be in RL, so it's a different environment.
LCV: Yes
MD: Yeah, so I just play as if it was to RL people...and share my RL personality. And I think it's that connection that makes me stand out a little better. There are others that can do that as well, and that's what separates the good from bad here I think. Did I get too deep? :P
LCV: loool, no :) Plans for music in SL? (more concerts, more fun and else?)
MD: Just to continue to keep the fans I have happy and hopefully pick up some new ones. I want to start a musical reich
LCV: loool
MD: Can you reference a horrible nazi tragedy in an interview on SL? I dunno the rules
LCV: I will ask :p Now to end to interview , some more words about you, that you would like to tell?
MD: Honestly, there's not much to me...I'm just some ass that likes to make people laugh and have a good time. I would invite people to come to a show or take a listen and offer any feedback or suggestions (OOOH NEW SONGS! GIMME SOME IDEAS PEOPLE!). Basically that's it...and if you feel like leaving a photo of you topless in my mailbox, FINE! as long as you do it smiling
LCV: LOL
MD: Pretty simple :)
LCV: Send me your mail ... XD... Two last questions.
MD: k
LCV: Your favorite song?
MD: oooh fav song...hmmm. Well, the "go to" song that never fails to put me in a good mood is "Mr. jones" by Counting Crows. Too hard to pick a true favorite song ever kinda thing.
LCV: :) And the last question, is because you make me curious during your shows about your personnality , you are funny, and you love to entertain... would you just tell a bit more about you? :D
MD: Um, about what? Hell, I could sit here and talk about me all day!
LCV: About your dreams, for music, the way you see the life, such things
MD: I just want to have fun...I'm getting to the point where I realize too many people stress over too much...I'm trying to unstress. Look for some new videos of new songs and covers on my youtube page and new stuff at my shows. And if you're around in RL, there will be more as well...other than that, I'm gonna find a beach to go sit on soon for the whole day and play volleyball. Until then, it's work...a lil SL and some music to fill in the gaps :D
LCV: :)) Thank you very much for this interview Mandoaa :))
MD: hey no problem! was fun, except now my fingers hurt, and I don't have my boobie pics :(
LCV: LOL, be patient !
MD: Lol, deal
LCV: okay :p, i have your mail.
MD : :D ok sounds like a plan, then i hop a plane to france and get in trouble
LCV: looooool, i give you my adress XD
MD: :D hahahah thanks
LCV: thanks again for this, it was very fun and interesting :)
MD: Thank you!!!

That's how ended this great interview, and ladies, want to know what? i have his mail :p .....

Interview Of Kasper Robespear

2011-10-17T09:48:00.000-07:00

LCV had the sincere pleasure to invite Kasper Robespear (KR) the 15th of October 2011. It was a great performance, and everyone enjoyed it! Also broadcasted on our partner's radio, www.jetsetliferadio.com/, in live. Now a nice interview of our talented artist...

LCV : First global question... Where are you from?
KR : Denmark :) In the very south :)
LCV : And you're very young also, when did start your interest for music, and also guitar?
KR : Well, it started out with when I was 12 years old. I was watching some tv in November, and it was nearly christmas you know. And they were showing a documentary about Metallica, so I though, that is a really cool instrument? I better wish a guitar for christmas! I got a guitar, and then, i've played since christmas :)
LCV : So did you play for Santa Klaus? :D
KR : Haha well, not yet :)
LCV : Aww you should, he would bring you more gifts :p
KR : Haha
LCV : Did you train your voice, or are you a self made singer?
KR : Well, while I took guitar lessons, I learned different techniques from singers, and I begun singing aswell at the age of 12 years old. And I've been singing and playing since that day, so I guess I've trained my voice by myself :)
LCV : Do you have some artists who inspire you a lot for your songs?
KR : Uhhh there are so many! But James Taylor, Tim Christensen, John Denver, and many more! I could tell you a bunch of names all day long haha! :-)
LCV : Lool, i bet, you have a large cover during your performances :) So what does music represent for you?
KR : Lifequality, lifestyle, and my soul. Music is making my day, when I'm sad, I play, when I'm happy I play :) And I'm here on SL to share my talent with you all, as I hope I can give away the strength I've earned from the music, to you guys :)
LCV : You do pretty well , we really enjoy :)
KR : Thank you :)
LCV : Could you tell me about your RL musical experiences? Maybe in band or else?
KR : Well, as I've told you, I've been playing since I was 12, so that is 8 years from now :) I joined a RL band called NehmNikss which is very popular in my city where I live :) I joined them when I was like, 15 years old, so I've been playing with these guys for like 5 years now :) I've been playing around Denmark a few times with other artists and attending music events etc. :)
LCV : Oh great :)) So you have fans in RL already :))
KR : A little haha :) I always call it my family though. I think "Fan" is a rush word.
LCV : What do your fans think about your sl contribution?
KR : Well, as I explained, then my "family", or fans as you call it, supports me really well, and can't explain you how much appreciated I Am from that support :-) Without them, I wouldn't be here :-)
LCV : I understand :)
KR : :D
LCV : When did you start singing in sl, and how?
KR : I'm originally from another virtual world called There.com, but after ?
There.com closed down back in March 2009 due to economy problems, I got told about Second Life by my virtual friends. I joined SL back in 2009, and I got told about the SL Music distribution, and I begun doing concerts here :)
LCV : Do you have plans for your artistic life, both in rl and sl?
KR : Well, I strive to be the best performer in RL and hopefully on SL :-) I've seen and heard many musicians who is playing on SL for a living, but when everything comes to the end, then I only play here on SL for the fun, not really for the lindens :-) I enjoy every minute with my family here on SL or should I say fan, just for the readers hehe :) It's very important to keep in mind, that playing here on SL, is a way to get dreams coming true, as you know, you can't just go to a ?
venue in RL and say; "Hey, can I play here Thursday 10 AM?", you can do that on SL! :-)
LCV : Lol indeed. Are there some things you really want to transmit with your music?
KR : Well, most of my songs/cover songs are about love and life, as they have some very important things people should know :-)
LCV : Yes :)
KR : :)
LCV : Now i'd like to ask you if you also enjoy the other parts of sl? Like some places which could be your favorites, relaxful or beautiful.
KR : Well, mostly I attend to concerts, play concerts, and then socialize. I love meeting new people and make new friends :)
LCV : Lucky you ! you met me ! Looool, kidding!
LCV : <<<< modest
KR : Lol, :D, love ya haha
LCV : Okay i have to release you in a short so a last question.
KR : Go on :)
LCV : Do you have some more words you would like to tell about you? Free topic :)
KR : I just wanna say thank you all for your great support, and it's so wonderful to play a concert while you guys are there with me :-)
LCV : Aww thanks to you for sharing that much with us , really. Oh last little question : favorite song?
KR : Shower The People - James Taylor... Read the lyrics and you'll understand why :-)
LCV : I'll do for sure :D Thank you very much for answering to my questions Kasper it's very sweet of you :)

Interview Of Jacoblevi Parx

2011-10-09T19:20:00.000-07:00

Jacoblevi Parx (JP) performed the 8th of October at Le Cercle des Voyageurs, and ladies and gentlemen, it was a great moment ! The concert was also broadcasted on Jetsetliferadio, our partner, and it was a journey through a smooth voice, with amazing guitar accompaniment. To explain better, i simply copy/paste (and translate) a comment from an auditor, posted on jetsetlife radio page :
"Very good concert, given by Jacoblevi, a very veautiful voice. His guitar made us travel."

So after the concert, we were lucky enough to have some time with the performer for a nice interview.

LCV : Where do you come from?
JP : I'm located in the middle of the uk in the country of Yorkshire.
LCV : Is it where you were born?
JP : Yes that's correct.
LCV : How did you start music (voice and guitar) in rl?
JP : Well i've always loved singing, and i've tinkered wih musical instruments throughout my life, you know keyboards recorders etc. But only about 8yrs ago i did start taking things serious and picked up a guitar and started to seriously learn all because of a musician called Elliott Smith.
LCV : Do you have other musicians who inspired you? :) For the guitar especially?
JP : Conor Oberst from Brighteyes, Elliott Smith, John Lennon, The Beatles, Johnny Cash, The Shins, Velvet Underground (amazing), and soo much more... All music inspire me so it's hard to single out any one or group of artists.
LCV : Yes i imagine lol. So how did you finally start to sing in sl?
JP : Well it all started with a friend of mine, she gave me the courage to actually stand up and do an open mic event and i all started progressing from there.
LCV : She did good to encourage you. What does music represent for you?
JP : Everything, it interprets all aspects of life. Anything you feel, say or do can be found in music, you find that if you ever feel a certain way then you learn to a certain type of music. It's in everyone and we all have our own internal beats and rythms and i find it amazing to see what people especially artists create with this rythm and beat. We're unique in everyway and music flows from us all.
LCV : Yes :) Did you have some rl musical experiences?
JP : Only a little. My first experience was in a play when i was 6 yrs old and that's when i first sang in front of an audience, but since with my guitar only a few open mic events in my local town.
LCV : :) How was it? you remember it?
JP : Yeah it was exciting. I went with some other musician friends, i was extremely nervous and i remember on one of my songs i got the begining wrong and i stopped, said sorry and for some reason played the whole song really fast to get it over with. I bet people where like what the heck is this guy doing lol!
LCV : LOOOL! i bet it was cute :D
JP : Certainly funny.
LCV : Actually would do like to have some musical experiences like concerts maybe in bars and else?
JP : In rl maye, yes it would be nice but face to face i get more nervous, but the buzz you get from it is amazing, seeing people's facial expressions and response to words you say and everything, it's a good feeling. But i get shy.
LCV : :) That brings me to another question: how does it feel singing in sl, when you know people are listening, but you're not face to face?
JP : There's a slight detatchment from people, especially with the delay of streaming, you finish a song and 10-20 seconds later you get and applause so it throughs you a little, but it's nice hearing the comments people are saying about you during a show, that builds you up and inspires you to do better and work harder.
LCV : It doesn't give you the desire to perform in front of people to get their reactions, their applauses directly?
JP : I dont think directly i'm looking for applause but looking to share my work and see what response it gets, i like honesty from people and i'm always striving to be better, and when i get honesty from someone, i appreciate it, it helps me on my musical journey. Applause is nice, it feels good and in rl too it's great but its not something i crave in either worlds.
LCV : I understand :) So, any plans for your artistic life in sl?
JP : Not any ambitious ones at the moment. I just want to share what i have with people who will enjoy it,i wont be everyone's flavour, but i once heard in an interview that if you like your song then someone else will, so i want to share the songs i like with people and have the ones who like it be around to listen
LCV : Yes i agree. We are at the end of our interview, some more words you would like to tell us?
JP : Just 'Say yes', one of my favourite Elliott Smith songs, give it a listen and fall in love.
LCV : :)) I promise i will. Thank you very much for accepting this interview and for answering , it was very nice :) And thank you again for your great performance :))
JP : Yaaaaayy! You are most welcome it was a pleasure
LCV : For me too :)

We can assure you something : we will invite him again in a few !

Interview Of Lisa Brune

2011-09-11T15:59:00.000-07:00

CDV : Coucou Lisa
Emy (lisa.brune): Coucou :))
Angiliak Crystal: Alors, les pizzas?
Emy (lisa.brune): mdr ca passe tout seul -_-
CDV: (rire) Allez zou, on se pose
Emy (lisa.brune): Je mets mes chaussures sur le canapé :s
CDV: (rire) C'est fait pour
Emy (lisa.brune): Mais elles sont propres, toutes neuves (rire)
CDV: Alors question pour debuter
Emy (lisa.brune): Saumon
CDV: D'où es tu originaire?
Emy (lisa.brune): la pizza?
CDV: (rire)
Emy (lisa.brune): Oops bon je vais rester serieuse
chloe Seljan: lol moi je préfère pizza aux champignns :)
Angiliak Crystal: moi au jambon
Emy (lisa.brune): Je suis née dans la région parisienne
chloe Seljan: Angi pose les questions, et nous on parle de pizza?
Emy (lisa.brune): Ah ou aux asperges
Angiliak Crystal: (rire)
CDV: Tu habites toujours à Paris?
Emy (lisa.brune): non j'y suis seulement née, j'ai quitté à 4 ans. Après ça a été la Normandie. Et hop, depuis mes 5-6 ans je suis dans l'est
CDV: Comment t'est venu l'amour de la musique? A quel age, et en quelle occasion?
Emy (lisa.brune): je pense que pour les enfants c'est enormement lié à la musique qu'ecoutent les parents
CDV: Oui c'est vrai
Emy (lisa.brune): Il y avait toujours de la musique chez nous. Ma mère, grosse fan de bob dylan, joan baez et autres
Angiliak Crystal: J'adore bob dylan.. Hey mister tambourin man
Emy (lisa.brune): C'est seulement l'annnée derniere qu'elle m'a avoué qu'elle fumait des petards....
CDV: (rire)
Emy (lisa.brune): Dans sa jeunesse... Oui c'est une autre culture de la musique. Moins de medias. Plus de bouche à oreille
CDV: Une famille plus rock alors?
Emy (lisa.brune): oui tres rock. Et les chanteurs comme Leo Ferré, brassens reggiani. Les poetes :)
CDV: Famille avec de très bons goûts musicaux :) Tu as suivi des cours de chants? ou tu as appris seule, sous la douche?
Emy (lisa.brune): Non jamais (rire)
CDV: Les artistes qui ont bercé ton enfance sont ceux qui on modulé ton style musical d'aujourd'hui?
Emy (lisa.brune): Je m'endormais avec le casque sur les oreilles. Je pense que j'ai vite été attirée par les chanteurs à trippes. Je pense que l'influence, ce sont les trippes et le reste c'est de la performance. Je suis aussi très attentive aux textes. Et quand j'allais bien ou mal j'explosais les watts dans ma chambre lol
CDV: (rire)
chloe Seljan: Comme moi. Mais avec du Cranes. Ca n'aide pas...
Emy (lisa.brune): loool. Moi, Noir Desir. Ma mère etait ravieeeeee
CDV: (rire) Quels sont tes expériences musicales en rl? concerts?
Emy (lisa.brune): Une seule experience mais qui a duré 2 ans
CDV: Dans un groupe?
Emy (lisa.brune): Nous avons bossé avec mon ex pour une amie qui montait des projets de prevention. Un spectacle entier avec des lyceens sur le theme d'Alice au pays des merveilles
CDV: ah sympa
Emy (lisa.brune): Il composait les 3/4 de la musique, avec tous les styles, rock, metal, reggae, techno... Le but etait de faire de la prevention toxicomanie
CDV: Et tu n'as pas envie d'approfondir ton expérience rl?
Emy (lisa.brune): si carrément. Le public sl est chouette, si je pouvais entendre les gens huer ou applaudir en reel. Ce serait le bonheur (rire)
CDV: Justement, tu peux nous expliquer comment tu vois la différence entre un concert sl et un concert rl? ou du moins une représentation?
Emy (lisa.brune): Mmm déjà on me verrait faire mes grimaces et transpirer en vrai xD
CDV: (rire)
Emy (lisa.brune): Il ya des silences, meme sur sl, qui en disent long. Quand il se passe quelque chose, sur une chanson qui prend le ventre, meme au virtuel on sent le silence des gens attentifs. En reel. Il n'y aurait pas de questions sur les silences : "sont ils touchés ou sont ils en train de preparer le repas" (rire)
CDV: (rire) Comment es-tu venue à chanter sur sl? Est-ce que tu es venue sur SL avec l'intention de chanter?
Emy (lisa.brune): Non absolument pas. En fait j'y suis depuis 2007. Ca fait 2 ans que nous allons avec mon compagnon ecouter des concerts, presque tous les soirs, sur sl. Et j'ai fait l'andouille en voice...
Lalabel Demina crie : lisaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Emy (lisa.brune): il m'a soutenue dans l'idée
Lalabel Demina crie : cloooooooooooooclooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
CDV: (rire)
Emy (lisa.brune): et m'a dit en fevrier 2011 ALLEZZZZZZZZ VAS Y
Lalabel Demina crie : angieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
chloe Seljan crie : lalaaaaaaa
Emy (lisa.brune) crie : LOOOL LALABELLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Angiliak Crystal crie : lala!!
Emy (lisa.brune): tu le mets dans l'interview quand Lala hurle j'espere xD
CDV: oui oui (rire)
CDV: Donc c'était un pur hasard que tu te mettes à chanter sur sl?
Emy (lisa.brune): en fait on a d'abord eu un lieu de concerts, où on a fait venir pas mal de monde. J'ai commencé à enregistrer des trucs, lui faire ecouter. Ca lui plaisait. Mais bon comme on envisage notre vie ensemble je doutais de son objectivité (rire) Alors me suis lancée avec du matos supra pourri (rire) J'ai explosé quelques tympans... Finalement me suis endettée à vie en achetant un shure et uen table de mix. e plaisante xD. Mais le matos est tres important mine de rien
CDV: Certaines personnes font très attention à ca sur sl?
Emy (lisa.brune): Tu peux chanter bien mais quand ca gresille avec du larsen tes oreilles galèrent
CDV: oui en effet...
Emy (lisa.brune): Ben tu vois bien les gens que tu apprecies en concert ont souvent un son agreable
CDV: C'est vrai
Emy (lisa.brune): sinon ça gâche le plaisir. Faut que ce soit propre. Y a que Cantat qui peut chanter avec des sons crades (rire) (pas objective)
CDV: (rire)
Emy (lisa.brune): Et je connais peu d'artistes qui n'ont pas investi un peu
CDV: Est-ce que tu peux nous donner quelques anecdotes?
Emy (lisa.brune): (rire) Le premier concert j'ai démarré sans la musique. Les gens m'entendaient a capella. Bon ils sont restés ca va mais ca fait bizarre. J'ai chanté pour des radios et, un soir, j'avais oublié d'enlever leur stream. Alors je passais en voice sur leur radio en papotant avce les copines
CDV: rire
Emy (lisa.brune): Heureusement on câline pas sur sl xD... EN VOICE...
CDV: on dit toutes ca :)
Emy (lisa.brune): Des belles anecdotes... Les concerts sur l'ecole sl. C'est du gros delire. Ils m'ont demandé quel decor je voulais. Je rentrais de vacances. Alors j'ai dit "un plateau de fruits de mer" .... Et ils l'ont fait!
CDV: rire
Emy (lisa.brune): J'etais un ti poisson (rire) Le concert pour second norway... Ca a été un truc de malade. Il s'agissait d'une soirée commemorative, pour les evenements de fin juillet en norvege. Ca a été tres sobre, 65 personnes sur la sim, beaucoup d'emotions. Vraiment tres fort. J'ai fini le concert, eteins le stream et j'ai chouiné tout ce que je pouvais. Difficile d'expliquer ce qui s'est passé. Il y a eu enormement d'ondes. Même via le virtuel, il y a des sacrées choses qui se passent. Et pour feed a smile (rire). Lala et lisa, apres 3 heures de sommeil en deux jours, qui se disent "allez on improvise un concert!"
CDV: J'ai parfois lu ou entendu qu'un concert sur SL n'atteint que rarement au coeur. Tu ne confirmes donc pas?
Emy (lisa.brune): mmmm non je ne suis pas d'accord. Car les gens reagissent en majorité à ce que tu leur donnes. Si tu es dans le don de tes emotions, c'est rare que les gens n'accrochent pas sauf bien sur s'ils n'aiment pas ce que tu fais,ta voix ou tes reprises... Apres il y a l'état d'esprit aussiLes gens t'invitent pour vendre des quiches ou pour la musique... c'est pas le meme délire. Les mots des auditeurs touchent aussi :)
CDV: quels sont lieux que tu préfères sur SL? Et les lieux où tu aimes particulièrement chanter?
Emy (lisa.brune): les magasins de cheveux (rire) nan je rigole
CDV: A propos des mots des auditeurs? et les gestures? :)
Emy (lisa.brune): Ah, alors je reponds à ca! Si je peux en profiter pour passer un message. Les gestures du type"you're the best, machine la meilleure ou truc le plus mieux", c'est naze. Et ça s'applique à tous. Je me mets dans la peau de l'organisatrice de concerts. Quand des artistes viennent chanter, et qu'un deuxieme suit, je trouve que c'est irrespectueux pour les autres. Il n'y a pas de meilleurs j'y crois absolument pas. Il y a de bons artistes objectivement, et apres certains vous touchent plus que d'autres. Mais c'est une question qui reste subjective. Je suis la meilleure de rien, je fais un style. Ca plait ou ca ne plait pas
CDV: Certains cherchent également à découvrir leur style...
Emy (lisa.brune): Des chanteurs tu veux dire?
CDV: Oui
Emy (lisa.brune): Oui. On m'a dit au debut : "te disperse pas, chante pas de tout, fais ton style". Mais j'ai pas compris la logique. Je chante ce qui me tape l'epaule, que ce qui me fait fremir. Alors apres c'est sur je en sais pas quel style ca donne (rire)
CDV: A part chanter, quels sont les choses que tu aimes faire sur sl?
Emy (lisa.brune): Ecouter des concerts, en organiser, decorer notre petit lieu de concerts (rire) et echanger. j''ai fait des rencontres geniallissimes par le biais de la musique
CDV: Tiens, tu n'as pas dit shopping...
Emy (lisa.brune): lol si j'aime mais c'est pour combler mes complexes rl , je fashionnise lisa xD
CDV: Tu avais dit que tu aimerais approfondir tes expériences rl
Emy (lisa.brune): Oui je commence à avoir besoin du contact reel du public. Je n'ai pas de hautes ambitions juste avoir l'occasion de se produire dans des petits coins
CDV: Est ce que tu penses que SL peut-y aider?
Emy (lisa.brune): Alors ça c'est curieux mais je n'y croyais pas. Disons que je n'y pensais meme pas. Je me sentais à l'abri de chanter dans mon salon pendant 15 ans. Mais il y a des musiciens, des compositeurs, des gens dans le milieu de la zik et l'evenementiel qui viennent papoter avec moiet me proposer de la musique et du projet concret. C'est flippant et extremement excitant en meme temps. Et je suis partante mais pas n'importe comment. Faut de la confiance aussi et pas partir en vrille dans sa tete. J'imagine que le melon et la page blanche sont les plus gros risques des artistes
CDV: Donc SL offre des opporunités?
Emy (lisa.brune): Oui je pense aussi
CDV: Nous allons terminer tout doucement l'interview.As-tu quelque chose à dire, à rajouter à cet interview?
Emy (lisa.brune): mmm je suis tres heureuse d'avoir concentré ma sl sur la musique ,en dehors de ce que sl m'a apporté dans ma vie amoureuse. Car ca me donne l'occasion de rencontrer des gens interessants et interessés par la creativité. Et vraiment les gens sont globalement tres genereux. J'espere en tous les cas que l'emotion passe comme elle me submerge (rire)
CDV: Nous te remercions pour avoir accepté cet interview
Emy (lisa.brune): c'est avec grand plaisir

Interview Of Mara Chandler

2011-09-02T06:17:00.000-07:00

Le Cercle des Voyageurs had the great pleasure to receive Mara Chandler (Happycamp) for a live concert. It was the good occasion to interview her to learn a bit more about this amazing and talented artist. Follow us in our "HappyStory"! You will discover a very sweet and humous woman whith whom the meaning of love of music takes all its sense.

Mara arrived, full of positive energy, complimented us about our venue while we were greeting her, and we sat on sofas to start the interview.

Le Cercle des Voyageurs (LCV) : Where do you come from?
Mara Chandler (MC) : I live in a little town west of Cleveland, Ohio, where I've lived pretty much my whole life.
LCV : Nice place :)
MC : Laughs... not many people really on purpose go to Cleveland for vacation or anything. But it's home to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum.
LCV : Are you living there now?
MC : Yes I do.
LCV : Home to the rock and roll of frame and Museum... so your inspiration is more rock?
MC : Oh my inspiration is everywhere, lol. I have a really wide, ecclectic taste in music. I have an appreciation for all kinds of music...I attribute most of it to the way I was raised...
LCV : When did you begin to sing?
MC : I've been singing pretty much all of my life. For as long as I can remember. When I was 9 I have this memory of running around my grandmother's house with a notepad, rewriting songs I'd heard on the radio... and I did my first solo performance when I was 12 years old. I remember being so nervous... it was in a musical. But I always had this passion for singing, for music, for feeling the words and the music... always. My mother would crank up the radio when I was younger and clean the house. Aerosmith, Def Leppard, AC/DC... but also some Elton John, a bit of Bob Marley. But then I would go to my grandmother's home where I spent summers and she would play Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Etta James, Judy Garland, Peggy Lee, Elvis, The Supremes...I was exposed to a lot of different musical genres. Music was always a huge part of my life.
LCV : What about your rl experience? Have you had some live in rl?
MC : I have had performances, live ones, in RL. I used to give concerts at my church for Christmas for different special occassions. Typically the audiences for something like that were fairly small. As far as a large performance, no, I really haven't. The largest audience I ever had was about 260 people at a local Karaoke bar, where I earned a little following for a while. Other than that, the desire to sing was great, but just never went anywhere. I will say, I landed a golden ticket to an American Idol competition... I want to say 6 years ago, but because of RL committments, I couldn't go... it is a HUGE regret of mine.
LCV : 260 people is great :) And why did you choose sl?
MC : As far as singing in SL. Well, I didn't come into SL knowing much about it. I was trying to find my niche at first. My whole purpose on coming into SL was learning much about myself as a person and a sense of discovery. One day a friend took me to hear a live singer and I thought, "I would sooo love to do that." So I sang for a few friends who pushed me and motivated me to do it. It was really hard to gain confidence at first... it's not easy getting started here! But I've loved every moment of it!
LCV : Ok :) And can you tell us what is the difference for you between singing in sl and singing in rl? For you?
MC : Ooh that's a good question
LCV : Thank you :)
MC : In RL, there is such a focus on physical appearance, such a stigma on it. Really only in the past couple of years has society been more accepting that talent has nothing to do with what a person looks like on the outside. I don't consider myself ugly in RL by any means (lol), but I think we can all be a little self conscious of appearances due to society's conditioning. In SL, I can make my avi look however I want... she could be beautiful, ugly... she could be anything and it wouldnt' matter because people are there to hear my voice. They are there to focus on the passion, the emotion, the fun, the laughter of the song and the performance. To me, that is so much more important than the way a person looks. I love that about SL, how everyone is so accepting and welcoming... it's a heartwarming feeling.
LCV : I agree with you, in sl we are what we give :)
MC : Oh I love that! so true!
LCV : What are your best musical experiences in rl? and in sl?
MC : My best musical experience in RL by far is this opportunity I had once to put together a Christmas musical that my church performed. I wrote the script for the play, I chose the songs that would go along with it, I directed it, and I sang in it. It was the most amazing, inspiring feeling and people LOVED it. People were moved by it.
My best musical experience in SL... wow, I have to think about that one. I don't know that I have a BEST ONE. I mean, I can recall some performances that I felt were exceptionally horrible. lol. *I'm my own worst critic.* Actually I have the most amazing time when I sing songs from the heart. I enjoy singing the upbeat stuff, but when I have a set of songs that seems to touch people, seems to make them feel and think... and then after my show they hop into my IM to tell me... that is the BEST feeling. Anytime I can touch someone with my music, it warms my heart.
LCV : And have you also some funny experience in sl? When you sing?
MC : Oh my most memorable funny thing that happened at a live show was when I was performing at a club owned by a friend... it's sadly no longer in existance, but it was an 80's club. Kind of that fun, crazy vibe... it was owned by another live singer in SL, Henry Goodliffe. Well about 5 or 6 of the people there dressed up in pickle costumes and danced in front of me and all around me... I was laughing so hard I couldn't breathe. It was so fun! Everyone was laughing really really hard... and the thing is I LOVE those type of experiences. We all had a blast. It seems like it's people's aim at certain venues to get me to break my composure and laugh. I LOVE it!
LCV : lol I love to see it
MC : I have a picture! hahahahaha!
LCV : Lol, can we see it? :p
MC : Sure!
LCV : Yay!
MC : Awww I can't find the picture, laughs
LCV : Do you come in SL only to sing? Or do you have other hobbies here? Any particular places you like ?
MC : I came into SL to discover who I am as a person, to meet awesome new people, to listen to fabulous music, to dream, to wish, to hope, to be inspired. I love going around to different Sims to see architecture, I LOVE shopping... OMG!! is that a crazy addiction. lol. I've been doing the live music cruise around. lol. Hitting up different venues like Kickin, Aces, Elegance Ballroom, etc. to hear people that are new to me. I also just like going to a club and dancing and having a good time. It all depends on my moods. lol. My favorite places to hang out... well, I LOVE to shop at the Four Seasons Fashion Mall... they have a lot of GREAT quality stuff there... I've been hanging out at Club TNT a lot because they always have some great Classic Rock there. I love doing Hunts too... it's a great way to get some awesome free stuff, but also a great way to learn about new places in SL. Otherwise, I sometimes just like to stay at home and listen to the stream and chill out.
LCV : We have finish our interview :) have you some more words you would like to let us know about you?
MC : Just this... I put my heart and soul into every performance because I truly believe in the music I sing and how it touches people. I appreciate each and every person who has been inspired in some way by my singing. There are so many really amazing personal stories that people have shared with me after a show... they tell me how a certain song touched them because they can relate to it. And THAT is what makes every moment here worth it and what keeps me singing in this wonderful, huge, amazing world of Second Life.
LCV : thank you very much Mara :)

That's how we ended our great interview with this talented and kind Mara. She is a real artist, but keep acting with modesty. Freshness and spontaneity seem good words to qualify this conversation!

Interview of OneSummer Oh.

2011-08-31T02:46:00.000-07:00

For our Grand Opening the 29th of August, we were LUCKY! The first performer had rl issues and couldn't log, and OneSummer Oh was in our place to see the event. So we asked her if she would sing for us, and she said yes! She saved our Opening with a wonderful performance! Now more about this amazing woman...

Le Cercle des Voyageurs (LCV) : Where do you come from?
OneSummer Oh (OO) : Northern California near San Francisco in the valley.
LCV : When started your interest for music?
OO : When I was in my mother tummy. I always been around music. I do not remember a time in my life other than when my parents died I stopped for a few years.
LCV : And when did you start singing?
OO : I guess when I started talking. My parents would take me and my younger sisters to their shows we would be behind the stage.
LCV : To their shows? They were musicians?
OO : Yes. They had a band. It was nice but I did not like as a child going out infront of people .. I am next to the youngest in my family, short, my younger sister is even taller and I looked like my mother side of the family so she would call me her indian SQUAW.
LCV : What are your inspirations?
OO : When I found out their was something more than country music .. I love the Stones , Muddy Waters , and all the old time blues singers.
LCV : Could you tell me about your RL musical experiences?
OO : I was present of my chouir class and I also had to give speaches at shows and that hard made me sick to my tummy too. I went to a family reunion and my cousin has me to come back and do back up singing in his band, so I started there, and then we were just here in sl, I was making clothing and poofers, then someone heard me singing in voice and said : "you should be a singer here". So I started to sing.
LCV : What is the difference between singing in sl and singing in rl for you?
OO : First I did not have the right things to sing here and people gave bad reviews but then afterwords when I got the right stuff, things started happening. I am a shy personn not to much of a talker and that for sure is the indian in me I am told. My father was full blood irish , mother german and american indian, but I lived a little mixed up life .. strong irish and then indian too .. so sure I take after both my parents . The indian side quiet, Irish side loud , and german side thinking all the time hahaha!
LCV : lol
OO : I know it must sound cazy but that is being very truthful.
LCV : Do you use your origins also in the choice of your songs?
OO : Yes, always as a child it was country music and when I heard other styles of music at an early age I would beg my parents to do that style. But of couse they had a band , so we had to do their stuff. Now I just sing up a storm to what I want or the music that touches me. I do not need to ask for permission anymore.
LCV : Is there one musical style in particular that touches you more?
OO : Blues. You can sing the blues if your happy , sad , hurted .. or whatever , you feel it in your soul. It vibrates your being in. As a child, I would jump out of bed just to hear my father early on Saturday morning playing the blues.
LCV : Your parents really gave you the love of music it seems.
OO : Yes. My father was the youngest of 13 children. They all played music and all my cousings play too.
LCV : Did you learn also instruments?
OO : Yes. My father brought so many different things home for us to learn to play. Only thing is he expected us to pick them up and just play .hahahaha
LCV : LOL
OO : Only thing I liked was the guitar and I do play that. But I like backtracks better to sing to .. I think it gives a show more of a real show feeling. I do know and understand that their are guitar players here in sl and I have dual stream with them but still I like back tracks better.
LCV : Do you think you can transmit in sl as much as you do in rl with your music?
OO : Of couse some of the songs I do are songs we do in real life. I may not be the lead singer in rl now but I am the backup of my cousin all the way. Sometimes he will ask me to do a blues or rock song but I rather be in the background.
LCV : What are your best musical experiences in rl and in sl?
OO : Real life was when my father did backup playing with Johnny Cash. I got to meet him but the show was then cancel because he was on drugs or drank something and passed out on the stage. Got to meet Dolly Pardon when she started out with Buck Ownen (no one even knew her then), and I've seen Jimi Hendrix, but mother made us leave because he smelt dope. But all the people that my father played with as band were extra cool.
LCV : It doesn't give you the desire to play in band? you prefer to sing single?
OO : Oh rl life I just stay with my family here. I enjoy doing dual streaming too. So I do my dual streaming and do that here as well ...... again I rather be in the background ..
LCV : Do you have plans for your artistic life, both in RL and SL?
OO : At this point I am not sure. I found out two weeks ago I have cancer.
LCV : Oh I'm sorry.
OO : I will have it removed in two weeks and undergo treatment. But no matter what, I will never stop singing. Singing means life and I am not giving up on that.
LCV : A few more words you would like to let us know about you?
OO : I love life, people , I pray for mankind and all our sorrows .... I would love to see people giving more of themselves, not be selfish ...... helping others who are in need of help .... giving what they can to improve the world .. loving one another .. that would be a dream come true .. Through music you can touch people no matter where they are from in the world .. Open your heart sing. I wish the world was not ME ME ME but US US US. I have thought this all my life and have tried hard to live my life helping others in one way or another. That came from my father, he would bring homeless people home and we would feed them give clothing and let them bath in our home. He said what if that was you .?? always always be kind to all you may need help someday. I am sure that is old fashion thinking but when you are raised like that you never lose the teaching of your parents. I am who I am here in sl no different than real life, so you meet me here in sl and real life honest careing for all. I am not to much of a bla bla bla rather people honest and real. Being humble and respecting all.
LCV : hank you very much for your time and for accepting the interview OneSummer :)
OO : Thank you so much.

This is the portrait of a valuable woman. She talks from her heart, is real, brave and natural. The kind of human we would love to meet much more. And she is also very talented. Her voice has a unic groove that is able to carry you high. A woman and an artist to discover for sure.

DS : No, I was born in Michigan then I moved to Southern California then to Arizona.
LCV : When started your interest for music?
DS : A radio in mybedroom as a child, I listened to rock and motown. It was a small clock radio. Then i was given a turn table and my uncles old albums.
LCV : So your inspiration is rock? Which band? Or artists?
DS : rock and soul, from Beatles, jackson 5, temptations, Rolling Stones, Kiss, etc.
LCV : So how did you learn music?
DS : I saw that i could get the attention of girls if i learned to play guitar and sing.
LCV : (laughs) ok, music is a good way to approach girls :) Can you play only guitare or also other intruments?
DS : I can play alot of instruments actualy : trumpets (horns), guitars, bass guitars, drums, percussions. I want to focus more on piano in the future.
LCV : A real musician :) What are your RL experiences? Could you tell us about your artistic life in RL?
DS : Well I've been in bands in Michigan as a child, and Bands as an adult in San Diego, well ive been in bands in Michigan asd a child, then played out doing what i do here (guitar and vocals) in rl.
LCV : What about today?
DS : I have just taken a break from my rl gigs, but i had been hired for regular gigs here localy in a couple different bars here in town.
LCV : So... why SL? And when did you begin to have a life in SL?
DS : I never knew sl had music, i thought it was a role play sim for vampires and werewolves until a friend showed me different.
LCV : Can you say us more about that?
DS : I almost left for good because vampires weren't my type of people, lots of drama and bf/gf play. i didnt find it that intellectual.
LCV : So your friend showed you some live performance?
DS : Yes because she had heard me play on skype for her and other friends and said "You need to do this DirtyDee". So i did.
LCV : And you did well :)
DS : Thank you :)
LCV : What's different between sl and rl? for a musician?
DS : Big difference... i feel the fans in SL are actualy listening rather then playing for some drunk who could care less if you are there or not.
LCV : for your music? sl have an influence?
DS : One person from sl had come to see me play live in rl and it was a real nice meeting then.
LCV : Do you have some experiences to tell from your live performances in SL?
DS : Every day in sl is a funny experience. I've played 2 years, i've seen it all. And this coming monday is my playing in sl 2 year anniversary.
LCV : Happy rezzday in advance :)
DS : So im raising lindens for a fellow musician who has a brain tumor and needs financial help getting her surgery. I'm giving away 6969L of my own money in a raffle to raise funds for her.
LCV : that's sweet :)
DS : Yes i do as much as i can.
LCV : A good musician and good man.
DS : thank you :) It's amazing what people here have done for her. I just want to do my part because i'm her friend aswell.
LCV : Thank you very much DirtyDee for your time and answering us :)
