About Self-discipline
Created in 2023, Self-Discipline is a solo project, a materialization of my musical influences and my life path, materialized by the production of a first EP, « otherness » released on Coups de Couteau label in 2024.
My main inspirations come from Indian folk (traditional songs and instruments : tumbi, santur, dhol, tablahs, harmonium, sitar, tampura, etc.), the heaviness and aggressiveness of metal and a radical change of mindset exploited by daily meditative practices initiated by a therapeutic process. All combined, forms a music with many influences that conveys a message of hope, love and self-love.

The notion of spirituality (Oriental philosophy), sometimes underlined by certain parallels with modern science, is omnipresent in the lyrics addressing themes such as the identification of our emancipatory and liberating values, self-discipline, self-knowledge or even inner freedom.
Accessing these different states of consciousness leads to better
knowing oneself, overcoming one’s own limitations and cultivating an inner discipline to achieve greater clarity of mind.
…"SPIRITUALITY AND PHYSICS A HARMONIOUS EMBRACE"…
Upcoming EP on february 2025
Pre-order available soon
« Otherness » Philosophical concept according to Jiddu Krishnamurti. (1895-1986)
(…) « The essential inexplicability of the sacred is one of its main characteristics. » J.K
(…) Krishnamurti uses a variety of terms to designate it, none of them entirely up to the task. Most often, he simply calls it « the other » or « this otherness. »
Otherness is a state of being, of a mind without thought, which makes us participate in the totality of what is, without awareness of division of oneself and the world. The observer and the thing observed are no longer separate. An inner peace settles in the heart of the psyche with a happiness of being, a joy without exuberance but very rooted. » (…) (René Barbier – Université Paris 8 – 2015)

Lyrics and compositions come together around deep philosophical and spiritual themes that highlight the connection between the individual and the universe.
Thus, these songs offer a holistic perspective on one’s own place in the world, highlighting ideas of connection, observation, awareness and intention that come together to form a musical experience rich in profound meanings.
It was also important to address the observation of nature and cosmic cycles, inviting contemplative reflection on our environment and our place in the world, the power of intention, personal development, highlighting the link between thought, intention and reality.
Self-Discipline seeks to inspire its audience to reflect on their lives and find a path to personal and spiritual growth.
Since its beginnings, through its unique and profound approach, Self-Discipline has spread a message of love, personal growth and inner freedom through its vibrant and inspiring music.

Lyrics
We are one with the universe
(Verse)
The cosmic clock spins
Influencing your thoughts, and actions, day by day (X4)
(Chorus)
Feel it, we’re connected by the stars,
Space energy, no matter where we are,
Deep soul void wisdom guides us,
We are one with the universe
Fly away, to a place of inner peace,
Where the power of your minds, can make all fears cease
Your intentions, can shape a world for us,
We are one with the universe
(Bridge)
Throughout the aeons, the stars guide our way,
Influencing your thoughts, and actions, day by day
The cosmic rhythms weave their spell
Now we stand here, at the dawn of a new age
In the vast expanse of time, a celestial dance unwinds,
The shifting stars align, the heaven’s grand design
