It was not my decision to become an artist. I’m an artist since I’m here…
I don’t have an other choice…Exposed Vocals: How did you come up with that name? What was your inspiration behind it?
Angenoir has two parts: Ange, french for angel, and noir, french for black. It’s the Yin and Yang in the name.

Online music sharing is great. More peeps that know me. Yes I give my music away for free. My music is here for good
vibes and I love to inspire people with my music. Music is the best medicine and fantastic for good feelings.
Exposed Vocals: Since everyone was a start-up once, can you give any smaller or local bands or artists looking to get gigs and airplay some tips?
Believe in your self and have self confidence. Be nice with everyone! It needs time to have airplays and ‘good gigs’… And every gig is a good gig

Exposed Vocals: Where do you usually gather songwriting inspiration? What is your usual songwriting process?
The nature is a good partner for a new inspiration… The inspiration comes when I make music. When I have an idea, it’s always the same: It happens when I play music. I don’t have special processes.

Yes: www.angenoirs-productions.com , the social networks are fantastic to promote and share the songs! A new and more professional page comes in a few weeks!

Exposed Vocals: If you were given half a million dollars and a year off, what would you do? How would you spend it?
Good questions… I think I would go into the nature for new feelings. I love animals very much. I think I would spend it with animals. My favorites are the wolves, dogs and cats!

My first album… And I have a lot of ideas for new songs… I’m very happy when my album is finished. Then I’m free for something new and great new songs!
Exposed Vocals: If you weren’t making music, what would you be doing?
Something in the area of arts! A life without creativity is no life for me…
