Milkymee at work. She was telling me that she would record her second album in France and she was looking for new inspirations. I did not know back then that she had already released her first album in France.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She asked me to try to write some lyrics for her. So I did it. She was an underground musician living and working in Sweden. She went off to Paris to launch her carrier as a singer later that year, but because of family reasons she was spending also periods in Gothenburg. A year later (I basically forgot our work togehter) she came home with an amazing news that she had met a director who wanted to listen to her demos at a party in Paris.\u00a0And guess what! She handed over all her projects to him including our common song as well. And he liked it. The story is just as banal as it supposed to be. At least for me. As you see it on films.<\/p>\n<p>So the song didn\u00b4t land on her second cd but in a French movie called Domaine, directed by the\u00a0French-Austrian director\u00a0Patrick Chiha\u00a0and with the famous and controversial French actress Beatrice Dalle in the leading role. It was Dalle\u00b4s come back film in France after working many years in the U.S. If your are from Europe, you might have seen her breakthrough film or at least heard of Betty Blue 37,2 Le Matin. For my generation it was one of the cult movies.<\/p>\n<p>The film was first presented in front of an international audience at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.domaine-lefilm.com\/\">Venice Film Festival <\/a>earlier this year\u00a0and it went on touring in Belfort, San Fransisco, Budapest etc. Hopefully, we\u00a0will see the film at Gothenburg Filmfestival in February 2011.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/swedish\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2010\/09\/Milkymee_photo.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"MILKYMEE SHOW\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0mzTJVCYu20?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Milkymee\u00a0is now back in Sweden and I have asked her about how life is going in general with her;<\/p>\n<p>-Milkymee: I stayed 5 months in Kyoto, Japan, at a place called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.villa-kujoyama.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Villa Kujoyama<\/a>. It is an artistic residency where French artists are sent by the government in order to achieve a project linked to the japanese culture. I composed and wrote my third album there, together with a bunch of amazing japanese musicians. <strong>Coba<\/strong>, an accordion player who released 32 records and is well known in Japan. He is also known abroad for performing with Bj\u00f6rk in the mid nineties. <strong>Nishi Hajime<\/strong> is a tsugaru shamisen player, <strong>Yamagushi Ryoji <\/strong>at the guitar and <strong>Maruta Miki<\/strong> with Jushichi-gen &#8211; 17 string Koto player, and Singer. With our extremely unique mix of pop, rock and traditional sounds we gleefully dynamite the rules of genre!<\/p>\n<p>This record is gonna be released in 2011. Otherwise I also released my second record on the japanese territory, and toured in the whole country. It was simply crazy!<\/p>\n<p>These days I continue my tour in France and I work together with different projects, amongst which the original soundtrack of a theater play by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theatretemoin.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Th\u00e9\u00e2tre t\u00e9moin<\/a>, a physical theater ensemble based in London.<\/p>\n<p>Mostly, I spend my time playing and travelling, as I get most of my inspirations out of my travels.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Emi Hanak is Milkymee<\/strong> : <a href=\"http:\/\/www.milkymee.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.milkymee.com<\/a><br \/>\n(Check the website!
