2014 ASPIRATIONS // Stromae, Papaoutai

Stromae is a 28-year-old Belgian musician who got known with the song Alors On Danse, highly influenced by Eurodance music from the 1990s but not being afraid of mixing salsa, congolese rumba, cuban son and other latin genres.
He also had a few adventures on hip-hop and rap.

 The critic Molloy Woodcraft "He combines 90s electro synths and beats with a laid-back delivery to mesmeric effect".

Papaoutai (meaning Papa où t'es - "Where are you, dad?") is a very powerful song, followed by a beautiful progression of his emotion about his missing father. 
The introduction is highlighted by an assembly of peaceful pianos that - ironically - contrast with the theme of the song. 
Harsh, emotional and frustrating, the song's climax is his soft-light-autotuned vocals and a very evolving and robust beats that brighten Papaoutai.

I'm absolutely in love with Stromae and honestly believe he is THE artist to follow in 2014.
