Dan's mon village by Amos
A joyous track performed entirely in French and all the better for it'll. This track by Amos who hails from Quebec in Canada smacks you right between the eyes from the beginning of the track Dans mon village. The song explodes out of the gate with a marvellous driving harmonica and acoustic guitar driven celebration of the singer songwriters home. It's late Sunday night in London England and my feet are tapping to this perfectly formed song that comes in at just over three minutes. Well structured and produced you can check this track out it will be well worth your time. Magnifique.

My Opinion
This is a toe tapping ditty straight out of the heart. I didn't understand the lyrics at 1st but that wasn't important. If your ever on vacation and you walk into a local bar and you hear music like this, you know your in for a good evening. The quality of the recording is excellent with a beautiful mix, well balanced, beautiful music with great vocals. I really enjoyed the experience and hope you do to. Peter

Wow! I really was blown away by this COMPLETE tune
"Dans mon village" has to be one of the most complete tunes I have heard in a long time; it has everything going for it, a hum-able tune, toe-tapping rhythm, intelligent lyrics, a positive message delivered with a positive attitude. The only flaw I could detect was that I didn't write it myself. This song is radio-ready, and I really believe you should be pitching this to Radio Canada. I hear "hit" with this, and if my ears are correct, it is a "home run".

good
I hope in one day to be able to make a piece like yours. I love the harmonica and the way you can play it is really spectacular. the piece is very simple from a musical point of view but its essentiality and its simplicity are its strong point. from what I can perceive from your song your village is beautiful, joyful and full sun with small green collins behind which the sun rises and sets. that's it?

Remarkable song in versatile style
The song starts off with a rhythmic and engaging harmonica, who is playing the main role in this recording, what impresses over and over deeply much. All the way from stanza to the refrain is accompained of brilliant acoustic-guitar sound and melodic bass lines. The beat in the chorus is additionally supported by a washboard and shaker. An extra factor what makes the song engaging for me. Alain Héroux is performing with his unique vocals and the intro sounds like a story. He has a great talent to give an account in words about someone or something, including all the relevant characteristics, qualities, or events. The chorus is impressive and the words come from the heart. The arrangement sounds definitely professional although of sparse instrumentation. I like the easy mood of the track. Very good mixed and overall perfect mastered. It´s a quintessence of traditional Quebec music style with pop elements although influenced from chanson very well arranged. Professionell orchestrated chords from the guitars and the virtuos harmonica in the backround carries the recording. Ambitious composition from the songwriter and really outstanding recording. This song could be a radio hit soon, and I´m sure you will also like to add it. Let others know your recommedation.

Great
I do not speak French, but this song still speaks to me. The vocals are on point, and the music has texture. Both of those are a formula for for a great song. The writing, performance, and sound engineering are amazing.

Excellent
The harmonica and guitar (?) instrumental line is very quaint lol. Unfortunately, I don't speak French (which is what I am guessing the language you are singing in is -- right??), so I can't comment much on the lyrics. Although generally everything sounds good in French lol so.... Anyhow, overall I think the mix could use a touch more of the lower frequencies. But it could just be that my headphones aren't picking those up very well, so you can use your own judgement. ;)

Dons mon village
Nice upbeat rhythm section. Drums and bass very relaxing. The harmonica is perfect and tastefully done. Nice vocals. Good mix and balance. I am guessing the language is French. I would like to know the lyrics in English, but the music is very good.

I didn't know it wasn't in English. Cool voice, cool sounds, I just don't know the words. Good luck on your musical journey. By the way how can I hear this in English? Who inspired this track? Peace

bonne chanson
Hi Canadian singer Songwriter. Bonne chanson. La texte est vraiment joyeuse et pouvait donner une bonne esprit a votre publique. J'aime bien la folklore de Canada. Vous connaissez Daniel Lanois ? Il chante en anglais et en francais au meme temps. J'aime bien. Votre musique est bien enregistree, la choix des instruments est bonne. Et, biensur, vous avez unne bonne voix. Ce qui qui peut ameliorer c'est peut etre un peu la composition. Une variation au milieu de la chanson pouvait laisser entrer la melodie un peu mieux dans la tete de votres ecouteurs. Et la chanson finit trop abrupte. Mais je suis vraiment curieux d'entender plus de votre oeuvre parce votre musique me fait rire et me sentir bonne. Svp ecoutez ma musique.

muy bien
Muy buena canción, me gusta casi todo, quizá la melodía que también me gusta es lo que veo más flojo. La elección de instrumentos me parece fantástica, y la ejecución muy buena con un sonido muy bonito. Una canción muy buena, una voz potente y original y una instrumentación bastante buena, me encanta la armónica. Very good song, I like almost everything, maybe the melody that I also like is what I see looser. The choice of instruments seems fantastic, and the execution very good with a very beautiful sound. A very good song, a powerful and original voice and a pretty good instrumentation, I love the harmonica. Très bonne chanson, j'aime presque tout, peut-être que la mélodie que j'aime aussi est ce que je vois plus lâche. Le choix des instruments semble fantastique, et l'exécution très bonne avec un très beau son. Une très bonne chanson, une voix puissante et originale et une assez bonne instrumentation, j'adore l'harmonica.
