Kora's way of life
Real player, no sampling. Just music, no chatting.
Techno, disco, funk, jazzy or cool, whatever the groove she gets out of her synthesizers, Kora Sylfa and her universe enter your own without you even see it coming a mile off !
So, take cover, pals ! Here is a french muso from Paris, talented composer and keyboarder, who doesn't pick her nose and who's on the way to bring a new breath in the monotonous, unvarying and mushy music of the beginning of this new millennium ! [...] Read the full bio
[...] Kora loves : me, our son, liberty, nature, the sea, Hawaiian shirts, salt-crystal lamps, cats and squirrels, narcissus, composers who swap stereotypes for inner sensations, the savoir-faire, Internet, adventure games, medieval era, elves, to grow gooseberries, Zen gardens, Stephen King, the Bogdanov brothers, futuristic films, films about crazy men, so "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", "The Shining", "As Good As It Gets" and so Jack Nicholson (yes, you win)! Films about penitentiaries like "Murder in the First" and "The Shawshank Redemption", and others which talk about intelligent people, like "A Beautiful Mind", "Quiz Show" and series as "Nash Bridges", "Lost", "Everybody Loves Raymond", "Buffy", "Six Feet Under" Oddly, Kora loves music too ! Amoung others: Al Jarreau, David Bowie, Moby, Touré Kunda, Lorie (joke !), Lyle Mays and music that sounds irish like Jan Garbarek, Sharon Shannon and higgledy-piggledy: the absurd, Jerry Lewis, William Turner, Raymond Moretti, Kandinski, Albator, Thorgal, fractals, Florida, the smell of ylang-ylang, sculpture, blushing clouds at sundown (what ?), matches houses (she makes 'em so well !), papaya, walnut cakes, to play pinball, to play with Photoshop or with a Frisbee, and to play with me
Kora hates : Garden dwarfs, geraniums, football, embroidered linens, flares, puffed tops that make pregnant-looking, smoothed hairs, faked music, useless artists, greedy artists (aren't they the same ?), Florent Pagny, Céline Dion, Chimène Badi (please somebody, help us !), stereotypes, misogyny, pretences, persons who talk for the sake, me (joke 2 !), inner ugliness, advertising, advertising and advertising again, and garden dwarfs again, while we're at it ! Guys with no personality, guys with no integrity, guys with no respectful, guys with no imagination, guys with no (censored too !), barren soils, milk, gingerbread (she really hates gingerbread, you know !) and candied fruits. I let you imagine a slice of gingerbread spread with candied fruits and dunked in milk ! She also hates atmospheric pollution, noise pollution, socks pollution, navy blue, those who behave like sheep, social conventions, tyranny, laxity, moralizers, fundamentalists of all kinds (religious, politicians, dieticians), trash atmospheres and garden dwarfs picking candied fruits in a football stadium !
