Minitel Rose
Love by the way of the machine, that was the Minitel Rose, an extraordinary 80’s French invention. This is a name which also sums up the several sides of the band: the popular culture, electronics and love. It was when watching the girls on the beach that Quentin, Raphaël & Romain met each other. Minitel Rose was born in a generation when TV was fun and the music discovered new directions with the synthetic sound, this culture from the charism of the “Ghostbuster” to the smile of Heather Locklear riddled them. Minitel Rose is mainly influenced by the childhood of its members, marked by the graphical and musical universe of the American 80’s movies, a retrofuturistic vision, and rock music. A hooked pop chorus and a melody made for the dancefloor are the basis of the electropop sound of Minitel Rose. Not too pop, not too electro but cohesive blend, this is what defines Minitel Rose. Though the pink Minitel of 1981 never crossed the French frontier, these three guys and their songs sung in English with a sexy french accent have decided to invade the walkman of the world.
