When Møme was reminded thatAloha, his most popular track, had 47 million views on YouTube and 193 million plays on Spotify, he seemed almost astonished. Released in 2015, this single had taken him to another dimension. When everything was packed, Jérémy was still in Australia, thoroughly enjoying the surfing, barbecues on the beach and the van life. He quickly found himself on the biggest stages in the world with his anthem chillwave.
After eight EP, an original soundtrack for the documentary Shelter and a first album, Panorama , Møme opens a new chapter with Flashback FM. “And honestly, he’s the one I’m most proud of by far. “
The young thirty-something recorded with Ricky Ducati, a singer with whom he is teeming with projects. While waiting for the rest, the public will be able to discover this new album from this Friday February 12th.
“Both Ricky and me, we sometimes adapted to trends. There, we wanted to do something timeless. We know very well that today, this is not the kind of sound proposed with Flashback FM which will go on radio. Right now it’s urban, rap. Do we no longer fit in a box? Ok, we will create our own “, assures Møme.
Behind the scenes of the interview
Back on the Côte d’Azur, Jérémy Souillart fully intended to take advantage of the scenery and we decided to record outdoors, on a quay at Port Lympia, in Nice. The swirling wind will push us to retreat elsewhere. A stroke of luck: the musician has just moved to two steps away. Direction his warm and refined apartment, where he has set up a pleasant home studio to compose as soon as the mood takes him.
Once the “Record” button was activated, time ran out. So much so that Møme had almost bypassed her friends, who were waiting for her to go eat a bowsprit. Sorry guys, it was our fault!
