Myd’s long-term ambition would be to build new standards for mainstream dance music. Traffic between underground scenes and mass-produced hits having never been so saturated, listeners need artists to act as musical scouts, to filter, sort out, and recompose this data overload, and instinctively conjuring its secret pathways and logic. And that’s pretty much what Myd’s here for. He aspires to become a proper pop producer, a true « music director », and can’t really be bothered with some niche-star status. Working with other artists always had him refine his own personal sound, and helped him use his production tools better and better. Myd’s sound lays on a rich, contrasted aural palette : it’s high-tech sounding, well-balanced, complex yet articulate. It blends Euro techno gusts with tropical siroccos, and an unmissable song-craft with a taste for baroque-ish sophistication.
Since his first track, « Train to Bamako », one the founding hits of the tropical house scene in 2009, Myd has produced many brilliant, smart remixes, for artists such as Yelle ou Two Door Cinema Club. Then last spring, he came back with the « Octodip » EP – that was less tropical and more focused on occult vocal cut-up work – for new French label Marble, created in early 2011 by former Institubes mainstays Para One, Surkin and Bobmo. As Club Cheval are currently working on their debut album, the future seems clear and vivid for our boy Myd, teeming with previously unheard musical ideas and aural stimuli. And meanwhile, go and check his productions, feel ecstatic, and just imagine what’s up next.
There Is a Snake in My Boot!
Myd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We're following the river the sun
sparkles bright,
A voice inside my head says "Don't go down tonight"
But there's a feeling in my heart that I just can't ignore,
I know there's something waiting through that old saloon door.
(Snake in my boot)
There is a snake in my boot,
I can feel it tonight,
It's slithering and hissing,
Ready to strike.
I put my hand on my revolver, my heart starts to race,
I'm walking through the desert, with a shadow on my face,
The wind whispers secrets, but I can't hear a sound,
I'm searching for the answers, deep underground.
(Snake in my boot)
There is a snake in my boot,
I can feel it tonight,
It's slithering and hissing,
Ready to strike.
The lyrics to "There Is a Snake in My Boot!" by Myd depict a narrative of suspense and danger. The song follows a protagonist who is traversing a river, accompanied by a warning voice urging caution. Despite this warning, there is an undeniable feeling in the singer's heart that compels them to continue onward, leading them to an old saloon door. It is at this moment that the realization dawns on the singer that there is a snake lurking in their boot. The second verse intensifies the tension as the singer readies themselves with a revolver, walking across the desert with a looming shadow on their face. The wind becomes a source of whispers and mysteries, as the singer seeks answers beneath the surface.
