1) Relatively unknown ambient hip hop producer. From France, Paris - http://1nes.bandcamp.com/
2) NES is a ethno soul/jazz band consisting of three artists with one unified musical identity. These three international musicians joined their talents while living by the Mediterranean sea in Valencia, Spain. Nesrine Belmokh, a French-Algerian singer & cellist, Matthieu Saglio, a French contemporary cellist and David Gadea, a Spanish well rounded percussionist personify the essence of NES.
Through a process of self discovery and exploration of their roots and identity, their sound has been shaped by the richness and background of their lives and musical experiences, ranging from jazz to classical, soul and Arabic traditional music. Their songs in english, arabic and french, are full of grace and emotion and nurtured by the magic chemistry that emerges from their creative minds. The album, named after one of the songs, Ahlam, means 'dream' in Arabic. “There is no beauty without a concept of goodness” (translated excerpt from the song’s chorus).
NES’s music and unique personalities have captivated audiences around the world at relevant stages such as the Festival des Suds in Arles, le Printemps des Suds in Vence, the Usina del Arte in Buenos Aires, Sibiu Jazz Festival in Romania, and Círculo de Bellas Artes in Madrid, among others.

NES Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I realised what causes all my anxiety
A big bloody, scary moon was heading
in front of me
No but think about it
I’m disoriented, lost soul
I’m bored of mediocrity around me
Spending days and years looking for my identity
I guess I have to find it within a community
No but think about it
I’m disoriented
Somehow I create it
This time I recognise that I can’t hide behind
any lies neither others composers
‘cause music is my exorcism
NES's song Bye Bye is a song that speaks to the artist's struggle with finding their identity and purpose in life. The lyrics focus on the feelings of disorientation and anxiety that can come with the search for one's true self. The tone of the song is introspective and thoughtful, with a sense of frustration and longing.
The opening lines of the song set the tone for what is to come. NES sings about losing time and energy, and feeling anxious as a result. They describe a "big bloody, scary moon" that is heading towards them, a metaphor for the many challenges and obstacles that can stand in the way of personal growth and self-discovery. Throughout the song, the artist grapples with the idea of finding their place in the world, and the struggle to break free from mediocrity and conformity. They suggest that the solution may lie in finding a community of like-minded individuals who can help support and inspire them in their journey.
One of the most powerful themes of the song is the idea of music as a form of exorcism. NES suggests that music is the tool they use to confront their fears and doubts, and to purge themselves of negative energy. They assert that they can no longer hide behind lies or the work of other composers, and that they must create their own sound and style in order to truly express themselves.
Overall, Bye Bye is a deeply personal and honest song that offers a window into the mind and heart of an artist wrestling with big questions about identity, purpose, and creativity.
