Influenced by Jacques Brel, Françoise Hardy, Claude Debussy, Serge Gainsbourg, Clara Luciani. Sylvie Minuit was raised in the historic watchmaking city of Besançon, learning harmony from the ticking clocks in her grandfather’s workshop. Her primary instrument, a cello shattered by her luthier father and painstakingly restored with gold-filled cracks, is the source of her sound: a warm, melancholic nouvelle chanson that finds beauty in the broken things. Now based in Lyon, her songs are intimate character studies, whispered secrets set to lush, cinematic string arrangements.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Julien, ton tiroir de la cuisine,
c'est l'épave d'un sous-marin.
Ça sent le miel séché, la pile qui coule,
la clé de Besançon qu'on n'a jamais rendue.
« C'est notre bordel organisé », tu disais,
sur la notice d'un cœur qu'on n'a jamais monté.

[Chorus]
Et tous ces petits mécanismes,
cassés, rouillés, anachronismes.
Ce soir, je danse sur le cataclysme,
je remonte mon propre prisme.

[Verse 2]
Un ticket de ciné de deux mille vingt-et-un,
pour un film dont j'ai oublié la fin.
La montre de ton père, arrêtée sur midi-quinze,
je la jette sans un mot, sans la moindre emphase.
J'observe la poussière, précise, chirurgicale,
sur le dernier « je t'aime » qui sonnait déjà faux, au final.

[Chorus]
Et tous ces petits mécanismes,
cassés, rouillés, que je banalise.
Ce soir, je lance sur le cataclysme
un nouveau métabolisme.

[Bridge]
Le plus dur, ce n'est pas le vide, c'est le poids.
Le tic-tac de ton absence qui s'accorde à ma voix.

[Chorus]
Adieu, les petits mécanismes,
tes drames, tes jolis sophismes.
Ce soir, je gagne sur le cataclysme,
c'est mon putain d'optimisme.
Oui, je gagne sur le cataclysme,
c'est mon putain d'optimisme.

[Outro]
Juste le bruit du sac qui craque.
