Presque Oui and “L'ongle” feel like the kind of sneaky gem that suddenly makes look better. It lands with the confidence of a song that already knows the room is listening.
The sound stays intimate and dry, with a close-mic’d vocal, spare guitar, and little rhythmic nudges that keep it moving. Nothing feels overcooked; every detail sounds hand-placed, like the track is performed at the edge of your desk.
Put this on while you’re waiting for the kettle, answering emails, or pretending the afternoon is under control. It is smart, lightly scruffy, and weirdly easy to replay.
