Canadian and Québécoise singer Romie released a new EP, Recommencer (Starting over/Restarting). The themes are love and hope.
The music is French Pop. It has a fun Arianne Moffat vibe and blends old-fashioned French 70s music with contemporary beats.
Recommencer has a dynamic, semi-fast beat with a smooth rhythm. The music is upbeat and cheerful. It has vibrant energy. The musical style reminds me of Arianne Moffat’s recent works.
Comme on faisait autrefois is an energetic song with a beat that complements its positive, romantic vibe. It parallels Pierre Lapointe’s earlier works and more Arianne Moffat’s songs from the 2010s.
Je te choisirais has beautiful guitar music playing in the background. It has a lovely Marie-Mai vibe, especially her recent music. It has a beautiful, romantic vibe.
TROP is an upbeat song that inspires you to smile. The tune echoes old-school French music from the 70s and Rick Astley, with a Sabrina Paris vibe, like the song Single Life. The beat is cheerful and dynamic.
TROP (acoustique) has beautiful piano playing in the background, creating a cosy vibe. The simple choice of piano as the central instrument lets listeners focus on the lyrics. The rhythm is relaxing. The acoustic music changes the mood and gives it a contemplative feel.
Romie’s EP Recommencer is an incredible record with a smooth blend of musical styles. The compositions are richly intricate.
Romie’s voice is soulful, rhythmic and dynamic. Her vocal style has an Arianne Moffat vibe. She sings each song with great feeling.
The lyrics of these four songs are poetic and expressive. Each tune tells a heartfelt story, going from love to identity.
Recommencer (restarting) is a sweet, romantic song about not needing to change anything if given the choice. The words inspire hope to find true love. There’s beautiful poetry to this profound piece.
Comme on faisait autrefois is a sweet, romantic song about remembering the good old times and the hope of saving the relationship.
Je te choisirais (I would choose you) (a duet with Gabriel Fredette) is another romantic tune about choosing your love no matter what others think or the circumstances. It describes a beautiful loyalty and that great feeling of true love and commitment.
TROP (too much) has a lovely message about confidence and authenticity. It beautifully celebrates the importance of being true to who you are. It also conveys another important message: don’t care what others think, because they’ll judge you no matter what you do.
These four songs are from the heart and deeply inspirational.
The EP Recommencer is available.
