Oscar les vacances

Under the name Oscar les vacances, Oscar Aubry develops a francophone solo project at the intersection of French chanson, pop and electronic music. A drummer, guitarist and illustrator, he constructs his songs as soundscapes where simple melodies, synthetic arrangements and an offbeat pop sensibility coexist, with lyrics that leave ample room for imagery, shifts in tone and a form of irony. Oscar les vacances explores themes such as masculinity, adolescence and the apocalypse, not in a confrontational or demonstrative way, but by integrating them into an intimate and sometimes deliberately strange universe. The project progresses through crossings of song formats, electronic pulses and melodic whimsy, finding a balance that avoids both posturing and mere stylistic exercise. Through this flexible, hybrid aesthetic, Oscar les vacances maps out a personal repertoire where the apparent lightness of the choruses converses with more ambiguous motifs and contemporary imaginaries.
