Porno Cachet – Sophie Marceau (2020)
Infatuations with celebrities are something that a lot of people go through particularly in their teenage years. This experience is the basis of ‘Sophie Marceau’ by Porno Cachet which looks at a young teenager falling in love with her favourite actress. Using their electronic pop sound, the band has you remembering the beauty of 80s movie stars and the bubbling emotions they left when you were younger.
The inspiration for this song was the 80s movie La Boum. Drawing on the sounds of Daft Punk with a tropical vibe, the duo behind the music have you floating in nostalgia. The pair are old friends who share a passion for making music.
‘Sophie Marceau’ uses a stop-start opening to grab your attention before you are flung into the pulsing beats of the melody. The beats keep you moving to their rhythm and have a very distinctive flow to them. The tropical vibes of the track hit on the chorus with a rhythm that makes you think of drinks on a beach. There is an infectious and light-hearted feeling to the song that makes it a fun song to listen to.
The vocals have an electronic edge to them for the verses but hit differently on the chorus. The chorus is catchy and you can easily start singing along with it as you groove to the beat. Through the vocals and lyrics, you are sent back in time to your youth when you sit enthralled by movies with your favourite actor.
Porno Cachet have you remembering the beauty of 80s actresses while grooving to a light-hearted beat in ‘Sophie Marceau’. The electronic vocals meld with the tropical vibe for an interesting sonic experience. Throughout the single, you are filled with good energy and can’t help but have a good time.
