    “A very unique album, thoroughly elaborated, which navigates between the best of the progressive rock, jazz and a (very) sophisticated kind of pop music. The instrumental ensemble formed by the guests do justice to a dense and beautiful writing, influenced by the beginning of the 20th century, and which is not taking the easy way out of the genre. The lyricism of the writing is indisputable, mastered but not constrained. In all it’s a success, an ambitious project which fully reached its potential.”
    Les DNJ / Xavier Prévost

    “We are then deeply entering a world of chiaroscuro, in a sort of primitive forest of great beauty. But also one can feel, right away, the extreme amount of work which has probably taken hold of all the musicians that are part of the project. “Sophistication” and “originality” are joining forces to obtain a fascinating music in each and every moment.”
    Note de Jazz / Michel Arcens

    “A very intimate work, which is never looking for the easy option and which appears to be thoroughly directed. A very unique and beautiful ensemble, which you should keep a close eye on.” Citizen Jazz / Franpi Barriaux

    “Undoubtedly one of the most beautiful records of this 2018 spring ...!”
    Thierry DocMac Bayou Blue Radio - Paris-Move

    “Theorem of Joy” offers you a jazz whose colors are simultaneously vibrant, oriental and classical at the same time; with pop-rock reflections and a discrete yet fatal charm of those masters who know how to disappear behind their artwork. Essential, simply “essential ...”!”
    Paris-Move / Frankie Pfeiffer

    “Thomas Julienne unveils his Theorem of Joy, a poetic vision of culture clash, the story of romanced encounters when eyes meet with curiosity and reciprocity.”
    Les chroniques de Hiko

    “A unique and reassuring place which staging should accentuate even more.”
    Télérama Sortir / Louis-Julien Nicolaou

    “An impeccable technique.”
    Culture Jazz

    “Within its contrasts that are halfway between a controlled sauvagerie and an ethereal revery, Theorem of Joy album surprises and seduces in the meantime. The fact is : the record keeps its promises.” Latin de Jazz

    “A beautiful richly colored ensemble where joy does not exclude uneasiness and mystery.”
    Alain Lambert / Musicologie

To forgive 04:11
To forgive Musique : Thomas Julienne Lyrics : Ellinoa / Thomas Julienne To forgive, at last To forget and to heal bruises of the past It’s a brand new day Let us leave all behind, let it fade away Don’t wanna make the same mistakes Don’t wanna miss what’s at stake To forgive once more Don’t you know oh my love, I’ve been there before Wash it all away I will not let my fear get in the way Don’t wanna make the same mistakes Don’t wanna miss what’s at stake

Hope to sea you Musique : Thomas Julienne Texte : Camille Durand / Thomas Julienne Où est la mer ? Cher océan je t’ai tant cherché en mon âme C’est dans tes eaux Que mes pères se sont baignés Les jours s’écoulent Les années passent et toujours mon coeur te réclame Où est la mer ? L’horizon reste bouché Mon paysage Défiguré par tant de violence et de cris Te connaîtrai-je Débarrassé de cette prison insensée Je suis si près de la mer Cachée derrière le mur Je rêve d’une terre Sans ces frontières, sans ces fils barbelés Rendez-moi la mer Rendez ma liberté Faire tomber les barrières Et enfin faire de nos rêves une réalité

Two Lines 05:23
Two Lines Musique : Thomas Julienne Texte : Camille Durand / Thomas Julienne Toi, qui es-tu? Qui m'entraîne loin de ma vertu Qui dès l'instant où je t'ai vue m'a tant plu Devant Il y a un chemin tout tracé Pavé de nobles intentions Je n'ai qu'à marcher droit devant Mais je ne vois que ce sentier Sombre, il occupe mes pensées Ce sournois diable tentateur Qui me conduit à ta demeure Et m'offre la clé de ton coeur Plus d'innocence Mes repères tant que ma décence Disparaissent à mesure que je te fréquente Sauver l'honneur Tout faire pour éviter l'erreur Surtout ne pas se méprendre Entre ces deux destins Ces deux chemins I'm tangled in those Two lines Il est trop tard Je contemple les yeux fermés Ce naufrage que ma barque va faire Sur tes terres... Là, il est l'heure De commettre ma plus belle erreur Le choix n'est plus qu'illusion Toi et moi on sait bien C'est tout ou rien I've picked the worst Of two lines

Relax if you can Musique : Thomas Julienne Texte : Camille Durand / Thomas Julienne Someday I will let you go Someday I will disappear Someday I will let you be No more than a memory Someday Out of the blue I will leave you alone And all of your little world will collapse on you And I’ll be gone

Feuilles Jaunes Musique : Thomas Julienne Texte : Camille Durand / Thomas Julienne Lueur d’automne Caresse le givre D’une feuille chancelante Danseuse étoile D’une brise éprise Confusion troublante d’une amante Tige voltige Jamais ne se fige Tant que le vent chante
10.
Ghost 03:53
Ghost Musique : Thomas Julienne Texte : Camille Durand / Thomas Julienne Lately When I lie in bed with you I cannot tell whether you are real or in my mind Lately When the shadows fall on me I see the ghost you let enter back when I was blind I didn’t see Crawling behind Ghost of my love Let me go Lately, when I lie down with you, Suddenly he’s here whispering in between you and me I tried to forgive and forget, But now I can’t help picturing what he’s like, what he did I didn’t see Crawling behind Ghost of my love Color me blind I spend my days Picturing you Ghost of my love Let me go

about

Theorem of joy Paris, France

Theorem of Joy est un projet onirique et impressionniste, où se côtoient sonorités Nord-Africaines, trips post-rock, libertés jazz, saveurs suaves de la pop… Il vous emmène courir dans l’imaginaire de Miyazaki, vous cabrer sur un rivage de Palestine, glisser sur un fil tendu entre deux destins, méditer au son d’un raga indien, exorciser vos démons intérieurs…
