LesAutresMondes: Akouphen Press Column

LesAutresMondes.info is a French webzine supporting women in music (a very noble cause), and is mainly specialized in Rock, Punk-Rock, Metal and Electro styles.

It lists lots of bands with at least one woman taking part, offers interviews and album press columns. It also has a calendar with upcoming events and reports on past events. And of course it is equipped with a forum.

All the articles are written with great care, and their reflexions and comments are not void or empty. No political cant here. Only passionnate people sharing worthy information.

The webzine had already contacted us for my band's first album entitled FACE.A and had written a nice column about it.

We naturally contacted them again for our second album ΣLΣVΣN and they treated us with a very detailed and careful column covering most of the songs of the album. Actually, I feel very flattered!

"Après une longue pause, Akouphën reprend du service et sort aujourd'hui son deuxième album, "ELEVEN". Pour ceux qui auraient besoin de se refraichir la mémoire, Akouphën est un duo formé par Kloë et TBJ, proposant un Rock Electro très disparate. TBJ (Jean) est chargé de la composition instrumentale, de l'enregistrement et du mixage. Kloë (Chloé Seyrès) s'occupe de l'écriture et du chant. Pas d'instrument chez (...)"

Derbynterview on 100% Quad

I know what you're thinking: "She hasn't been skating a lot lately but she's been talking!"

Yeah. Alright. I compensate the way I can. But I do skate in private. And I will make my public comeback preview at the RollerCon next week. Cross my heart!

For the real derby comeback I'll have to wait a couple more months. But let's stop brooding over it.



100% Quad at www.rollerquad.net

I was contacted by the webmaster of 100% Quad for a quad interview.
I am kind of touched by the request as it is the quad-skating extension to RollerFR, and they both dominated the French skating Internet scene in the 2000's... They were very active with interviews, equipment tests, skate customizations... and freeskate video contests! (to make it short)

As I was intent on presenting the website accurately, I asked the webmaster to do so:

Skating-Music Interview on TÊTUE.COM

The title speaks for itself. I was contacted by the French gay magazine for an interview as 1) the singer of a band and 2) a world-renouned skater.

Akouphën's last music video having been in their music video selection of the moment, they came back to me after a couple of days to ask me for extra information! The interview was out a couple of days ago and it goes back on the history of the band and my history as a skater and it is illustrated with various (cool) videos.

... Fame, we're coming!

AKOUPHËN:

"Today, being a lesbian artist is trendy!"

Thursday July 12th, 2012

 

Being a gay magazine, they obviously exaggerated that part of me, but how could I bear the grudge against them for that...?

Kozmic Derbynterview on MUNDO DERBY

A couple of weeks ago, JustMean of the brand-new Latin-American Derby Website MUNDO DERBY, asked me for an interview. I was all the more flattered (not to say excited and proud) that it was my first real derbynterview. CHECK IT OUT HERE:

INTERVIEW: KOZMIC BRUISE #B612

English | Spanish

I decided to return the favor in advertizing for their website here. I was a bit worried because it is integrally in Spanish and I don’t speak a word of Spanish.

In order to be sure that the information I was going to spread was accurate, I had the idea to interview my interviewer! Haha!.

My interviewed interviewer is JustMean #17 and she belongs to the amateur team of the Sailor City-Rollers in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Rock'n Roulettes (Article)

This is a brand-new article written by Dorothée Duchemin for Citazine webmagazine, entitled "Rock'n Roulettes". The journalist attended our last bout against the Gent Go-Go Girls and mixed her feelings of the show with interviews and historical researches.

A captivating and lively article -- although you can spot a couple of mistakes as for the rules. But the atmosphere and spirit are there. And it makes you want to put your skates on!!
