The MaMA Festival is like the Parisian version of the SXSW festival. From October 13th to 15th, the north of Paris welcomes in 8 venues 80 shows, and 3 partying nights full of discoveries! This event will give the chance to agencies, labels, publishing or management companies to have their artists wherever they come from to play in front of an international audience of music professionals, media, and Parisian festival-goers. Here are three artists you need to check!
Annael was born in Brazzaville and grew up between Congo, Moscow and Paris. He thrives in music as a singer, songwriter and beatmaker. At the age of 10, Annael returned to school with two options: music and dance. He developed his musical ear and rhythm there, where he learned different types of dance. He recently released his new single “Regards Volés” and it’s a deep late 90’s R’n’B electronic banger.
Probably the most atypical artist on the lineup of the festival. French Multidisciplinary artist Joseph Schiano di Lombo trained as a pianist and a graduate of the Arts Décoratifs de Paris. Joseph is defined as an unclassifiable artist, playing with all kinds of games using a wide variety of practices in his work, from drawing to music and writing. His latest album “Musique de Niche” might be the perfect love letter for his dog’s admiration.
Sexy and feverish, Franky Gogo’s music draws new geography on the ruins of the old world: the bodies are mutant, the borders submersible. Here, desire rules as listening to Gogo is experiencing a disruption of all the senses, an erotic and martial hand-to-hand with the world as it is: violent. Mixing the codes, Franky Gogo has multiple identities and their music is resolutely queer.

There’s something quietly special about hobbies, those small rituals that give us space to breathe, to focus, and to connect with something real. Forét’s FW25 collection, Hobby Market, is a love letter to those moments.

It’s the bag you put inside another bag or the one you stuff full of everything else. It doesn’t care what it carries; it’s built to hold whatever you throw at it.
“MiMa is first and foremost a space for discovery and inspiration. That was a core idea from the very beginning, both in the way we curated the selection and in how we designed the space itself.”
FANG NYC’s FW25 collection pulls from creative director Fang Guo’s travels, from Georgia’s concrete Kartlis Deda monument to Crete’s pink sand beaches, to play with contrasts.
Turn the page. Breathe deep. Your pupils are already dilating. The high is coming.

meets exhaustion.
