I am one of very few that thinks U2 really isn't that great, other than The Joshua Tree and a few other random songs. The fact that Rolling Stone gave the new release five stars pretty much guarantees I won't like it. But Neko Case ... ohhh Neko Case. If only you were ten years younger. Anyway, you already know I like her new album , so there's that. Wild Light 's debut is catchy, but I bet the feeling won't last long. We shall [...]
Hollywood, Mon Amour, the collection of 80s movie songs reimagined and reinvented by Marc Collin — one of the producers behind Nouvelle Vague — is coming out tomorrow, 3/3. For the album, Collin strove to redefine outmoded film songs into something that transcended studio technique. He made a point of choosing different singers than the [...]
~ Hollywood, Mon Amour Feat. Juliette Lewis - "This Is Not America" ~ Similar to Nouvelle Vague's take on classic 80s songs, Hollywood, Mon Amour breathes fresh life into this David Bowie song and turns it into a smooth, almost ambient ballad that sounds as old as it does new. ~ My Teenage Stride - "Theme From Teenage Suicide" ~ Indie pop with a late 70s/early 80s streak. Fun and kind of morbid at the same time thanks to these lyrical gems: "I'm a killer but I never started [...]
So we may be in a recession, but that doesn't mean you still can't show that special someone you care. To help, Hollywood, Mon Amour, the new project from Marc Collin, one of the producers behind the much celebrated Nouvelle Vague, has made an ecard, complete with music. Best of all, it's totally free. Just [...]
Marc Collin, the Parisian composer who single-handedly changed the way we thought about Depeche Mode and Visage as Nouvelle Vague by daringly rearranging their songs with bossa nova beats and sultry chanteuses, is now chasing a very different ambition: to change the way we feel about 1980s soundtracks. From "Eye of the Tiger" to "Flashdance…What a Feeling," Hollywood, Mon Amour strips away the dated bombast and overblown synthesizers, the shoulder pads and eyeliner, to reveal songs underneath that you could never even imagine existed. Hollywood in the 1980s was the port of call for post-punk bands that [...]

Hollywood, Mon Amour, the new project from Nouvelle Vague's Marc Collin, is a collection of 80s film songs reimagined and recreated as if they were set in a different era, or performed by different characters with different backgrounds, different stories. One such songs was "A View To A Kill," originally performed by Duran Duran as [...]
In a truly great song, even if the fads that colored its production have long fallen out of favor, what made it so great, its essence, surely remains. Such were the thoughts of French musician and composer Marc Collin, who, in his latest project, Hollywood, Mon Amour, strove to redefine outmoded film songs into something that [...]
Très vite, je n'ai pas trop de temps. Un petit avant goût du nouvelle album de nouvelle vague, inégal je trouve, mais avec de très bonne pépites. Il s'agit pour le coup de faire des versions de classiques du cinéma hollywoodien. Parfait pour des soirées "dans-tes-bras"... Nouvelle Vague - Call Me (Featuring Skye) Nouvelle Vague - Cat People (Featuring Dea Li) Nouvelle Vague - What A Feeling (Featuring Yael Naim)

Se nel primo lavoro erano evidenti le influenze trip hop (anche grazie alla produzione di Geoff Barrow dei Portishead), Tell It Like It Is segna un nuovo corso, più classicamente soul, di [...]
Cher Marc Collin , we met last Monday in Paris, where I interviewed you about Hollywood, Mon Amour . We talked about music from the eighties, about your big hair (also in the 80s), about Versailles and ofcourse about girls. You had that same smile I have when I talk about les filles fragiles. That smirk with a little shyness. Ofcourse you picked the singers you work with also because of their looks. For Hollywood Mon Amour, the vocals are taken care of by (among others) Skye, Nadeah, Nancy Danino and Juliette Lewis. The latter, you [...]
