Chosen from 300 candidates
The choice of a pop melody is quite successful for Océane. She is selected from among 300 candidates to participate in the casting. There, Steve Zeitoun puts it to the test.
“You had to do lots of little vocal exercises, quickly find a sung melody, lyrics … I had never met a music professional, so falling directly on a producer was something”.
But in terms of stress, Océane has seen others, having suffered exclusion and bullying in college. She overcomes her anxieties, gives her beautiful deep voice, and is chosen to record a single.
“Message of hope” in the face of harassment
After choosing from 150 instrumentals, the budding singer must move on to writing the lyrics. The text of “Nostalgique”, his first professional title, tells about the happiness of childhood, the sufferings of adolescence, and the passage to adulthood.
“I experienced bullying and depression in college. Unfortunately I did not mention it, or too late. I wanted to send a message of hope: even if we are at the bottom of the hole, there is always a way out ”.
The future of the single is now in the hands of the record companies contacted by Steve Zeitoun. As for “O’Shen”, she continues to train solo, supported by her parents.
Between synth and English lessons
“It’s a difficult time to get started but already a great experience,” explains David Gillet, his father. We paid her a professional microphone and a synth to equip her properly and support her in her project ”.
