The Rempart runners<\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

Hardcore, socially conscious rock rap<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Les Coureurs de Rempart is a voice with many mouths, poetry screamed out that clings to the cobblestones. A blend of rock, rap, and punk that grips the audience just as much as it shakes the walls. Their live shows are intense, dynamic, and always charged with tension, fueled by lyrics that seek out the cracks in the night. Dark poetry, incisive rap, raw rock. The lyrics snap like slogans, the guitars screech, the beats pound. Les Coureurs have forged a unique sonic identity, rooted in an era they look straight in the eye. As long as the stateless flags remain intact, Les Coureurs will blow their rage to set them flying toward new utopias.<\/p>\n

LGMX<\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

Trance & House Brass Band<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

LGMX reimagines electronic music in a literally explosive acoustic set. With percussion that de-samples drum machines and brass instruments serving as synthesizers, the band reassembles it all with the generous energy of a live performance that is uniquely their own. Both sunny and dark, the LGMX sound takes listeners on a journey through the soaring harmonies of house, the industrial gallop of techno, and the acid-tinged, interwoven textures of psytrance. This subtle blend of minimalism and harmonic richness, embodied by a \u201cbrass band\u201d acoustic arrangement, is what makes LGMX so unique and resolutely invites listeners into a trance.<\/p>\n

The 1961 Project<\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

Rock, blues, folk<\/strong>
1961 is a band that formed in the wake of the 2020 lockdowns, as a musical response to that period of isolation and tension. Their music explores the contradictions of our time: anger, loneliness, a desire for freedom, but also hope for renewal. Blending rock energy, unexpected contrasts, and lyrical flights of fancy, 1961 seeks above all to create songs with soul\u2014songs capable of both moving and unsettling listeners. Centered around the compositions of Vincent De Bimard (guitars and vocals), musicians Pierre Niemaz (bass), Maxence D\u00e9camps (drums), and Laurent Parrens (keyboards) collectively shape a world where rock, blues, folk, and more experimental sounds intersect. Their music is intense and full of contrasts, ranging from raw energy to lyrical flights of fancy.<\/p>\n
