An Roubos about Salon Perdu

An Roubos about Salon Perdu

 ♥ I have always loved those magical mirror tents!

Those itinerant round dance salons with wooden walls and cut mirrors. As part of a fair or circus:  Salon Perdu (spiegeltent). Magic! A place for dancing and partying. Wooden niches at the edges and mirrors to reflect reality, but from a different perspective.

The songs I write reflect parts of me. Parts that I can sometimes only see by looking at them from a different angle and that sometimes change character during writing.

Salon perdu can also be translated as ‘forgotten room’. While as a child you often already know and feel clearly which path you want to walk in life. You know the depths of your soul, but you lose that sharp look as you get older. You lose sight of your dream and your path. You put the thoughts in a room in your head or in your heart and forget about this room. I had almost forgotten the existence of my dream, but I found my way back to it.

 

In 2020 I wrote new songs for the first time in years and recorded them in the studio of Jochen Oosting (Jogo Music). Lights & ballerinas is the first song to be released as a (Christmas) single, followed by the EP. Under the name ‘Salon Perdu, in reference to my recovered path & a place to reflect my reality.
