Les Chats Noirs Project Les Chats Noirs Project Les Chats Noirs is the marriage of two lost souls who found one another thru Gothic Music. Nyx Raven is a Gothic dj and Lucien D´Anjou was the lead singer of the mysterious band Tessália, from Curitiba. In 2015, after attending the festival Wave Summer in São Paulo, inspired by bands such as Merciful Nuns and Das Projekt among others, they started to write songs. Their first one is called "Love and Passion", in which they declare their love for each other . They are very inspired by literature and music, so "Lestat", their second song, was named after the famous vampire created by Anne Rice. "Death is Alive" is a more personal song, it was written after the passing of Lucien´s father. "Aging is so sad" is their latest song, a very dramatic and tense song. All of their songs start with piano lines by Nyx Raven. They also produce a Gothic party called "Release the Bats" in the south of Brazil, which brings many fans of this subculture. They were invited to play at WoodGothic Festival 2017, one of the biggest Gothic festivals in South America. Their songs are on the setlist of djs like Gevian Marx and Albano Mendes from Madame Satã, the biggest Gothic club in Brazil. Da união da dj gótica Nyx Raven (RJ) com o músico Lucien D´Anjou (CWB) surgiu o projeto de rock gótico Les Chats Noirs. O projeto nasceu quando o casal foi assistir o festival Wave Summer Festival em São Paulo. A energia de bandas como Merciful Nuns e Das Ich foram a chama inicial para a criação da primeira música: Love and Passion. Nyx “recebeu” a melodia do piano e a partir dela Lucien pode usar suas qualidades como compositor e produtor. O casal é muito inspirado por bandas como Bauhaus, Siouxsie e Sisters of Mercy e pela literatura e filmes de terror. Sua segunda música se chama “Lestat” em homenagem ao famoso vampiro de Anne Rice. Criaram a festa “Release the Bats” para reunir fãs da cultura gótica e promover bandas deste estilo. Em sua primeira edição, no 92 Graus Pub em Curitiba tiveram a honra de receber a banda Tessália e a dançarina de dark fusion Gilmara Cruz. Sua última música “Death is alive” tem um caráter mais pessoal, trata da morte recente do pai de Lucien. Lucien vem de uma família musical, sua mãe foi sua primeira professora de piano e estudou na Escola de Belas artes por 12 anos. Desde criança gostava muito de ler contos do escritor Edgar Allan Poe e do poeta Rimbaud. Lucien é também o vocalista da lendária banda dark curitibana dos anos 80 Tessália, que foi morar em Londres em 1990. Sua maior conquista foi ter conhecido Ivo Watts-Russel, dono da 4AD e ser amigo pessoal de Mark Sandman da banda Morphine. "That sounds really great! Nice tune and vocals!"
