LYBERT started his artistic route with classical singing class. In these very early times, he has been offered a part as a low baritone in an baroque opera "Four Saints in 3 acts" directed by Jean-Claude Arnault. Collaborations multiplicated themselves and therefore he recorded a numerous types of singles, which he wrote almost every lyrics. End of the 90's, he explores a new musical style and heat up New' York's dance floor with "Can you feel my love", single of which he was the author. At the end of 2002, Lybert shared the famous Olympia's stage with Sheila (French female singer icon) for a very "latino" feature. Still searching for his musical path, he finallly find "himself" thanks to his vocal coach Laurence Apithy, founder of the "Black Music School". She will also be at the origin of the magical meeting with Eric Priva, a young composer and producer. Hence, Lybert recorded a mini album tendency groove on which he wrote most of the lyrics. October and November 2005, he produced himself on stage at "L'article de Paris" for a series of acoustic concerts.Then from april to June 2007, he finds himself again on stage at "the Nesle Theater", accompanied by his musicians for a successfull series of concerts. He is right now working on the concretisation of his DVD shot last june and just finished to record his new single. He also just shot his last video clip which is realesed on my space now. He is also recording his new album which is ready recently, so you can listen some new songs on myspace. And he will shoot soon his new video...

REVIEW PRAISES WONDERS OF PROMIS' ALBUM "LIFE IS GRAND!"

Spirited Euro-dance pop *****
By HollywoodKen – Feb 3, 2010

On his fourth album, Chilean-born singer-songwriter Jose Promis takes his signature brand of cabaret pop to new heights. Working with Turkish producer Ayhan Sahin and an array of multi-ethnic session players (Turkish guitarist/songwriter Emre Yilmaz, New York singer Karine Hannah, Greek performer Lina Koutrakos, Ukranian guitarist Gene Blank, etc.), Promis ups the ante, allowing his usually modest songs to be given the full-production makeover. The results are thrilling, adding extra umph to what was already an exciting sound. At times bringing to mind the cabar-tronica (cabaret electronica) of the U.K.’s The Real Tuesday Weld, the album soars with sitars, guitars and flutes blending effortlessly with drum loops and other computerized wizardry. Thematically, Promis continues to exorcise his demons (as on the thrilling “When I Was Drunk and You Were High”) and offers up nuggets of wisdom gleaned on his experiences. Sahin’s Middle Eastern and Spanish flavorings spice up the mid-tempo seductiveness of tracks like “Lovesick” (a lovely duet with Karine Hannah, channeling Kate Bush at her most siren-esque), the lover kiss-off anthem “Farewell My Heart” and the Pet-Shop Boys-influenced title track, while Promis slows things way down for ballads “One Kind Word” and the particularly lovely “I Saw A Flower.” There’s also a wonderful debut with Turkish singer Emre Yilmaz on the powerful “Home.” Though lead-off track “I Promise” might be some’s choice for a single, it’s the thrilling “When I Was Drunk and You Were High” that is really the standout track here. This is one of those perfect crossover tracks that introduces exciting unsung talents to the world, mixing spoken word lyrics and world flavor with an electronic dance beat for nearly perfect results. All in all, “Life is Grand” is a major step forward for Promis, whose talents have never been more obvious. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

Karine Hannah: "Marquee"

Big happenings at 2C Studios in Brooklyn, if I say so meeseself. The fabulamous Karine Hannah will be recording vocals today for "Marquee," a dark, sparse song of desolation (oh yeah, and ultimately hope), which Ayhan Sahin and Dennis Delgaudio wrote and arranged. Keyboards, cello & voice. Dat's it. Can't wait to hear it unfold, measure by measure.And a hearty howdy to Mehmet, just in from Istanbul, who will be interning at 2C Studios for the next two weeks.


Yup, I cried... quietly and with dignity. Karine Hannah stepped into the vocal booth, moistened her lips and ripped through her vocal recording of title track "Marquee" for her upcoming third solo album, produced and arranged by DNA (Ayhan Sahin & Dennis Delgaudio). Wish I could play it for you now, cool cats, but we all have to wait a few more months... believe meese, it kills.In the house: Dennis, 2C intern Mehmet, meese, Karine & Ayhan.
