She's going to break your heart in two, it's true

Some pieces of music are more important than others; related to friendships, love affairs, they will always have the taste of precise moments in time. The tapes listened to on repeat at the age of 18 or 20 are unforgettable. They are relics of an intimate memory and of an era. When covered with tar they become perfectly preserved fossils, new kinds of fetishes.

Certaines musiques sont plus importantes que d'autres; liées à des amitiés, des amours, elles auront toujours le goût de ce moment-là, précisément. Les cassettes écoutées en boucle à 18, 20 ans sont inoubliables, vestiges d’une mémoire intime ainsi que d'une époque. Les bitumer, c'est les convertir en fossiles, mais également les conserver parfaitement, telles des fétiches.
