Bon Entendeur: Charlie, Winter 2015

Extraordinary circumstances  call for an extraordinary mixtape, says Bon Entendeur. There can be no
doubt whatsoever about the events over the past week .

Artists responded to the terrible events in the best possible way, cartoonists with art, others with words, others with songs. Bon Entendeur puts together mixtapes, and has repsonded in the way they know how.

"We were just speechless. That's why we preferred to seek refuge in what we do best: Making mixtapes."

Voices of Cabu, Charb, Wolinski and Philippe Val feature.

The Charlie, Winter 2015 mixtape is  by no means a mournful experience, there's plenty of upbeat house and funk there. It acknowledges what happened and It also makes it clear that artists will not be dissuaded from creating their art.

Given the magnitude of what happened, artists will be reflecting on events over the past seven days for years to come.
