SFSF
Short Bio
SFSF stands for Songs For Soul Factory, a pseudonym chosen by Christelle Traoré as obvious for this indie pop artist who wanted above all to be a ghost songwriter and "manufacture" songs that stir your feet, your heart or your soul.
Parisian girl living in Berlin for almost 15 years, she writes and sings mainly in English but also in French and adds a touch of German.
SFSF began in music as vinyl collector with her partner and owner of the KOW gallery in Berlin, for which she wrote analyzes and reviews of contemporary and sometimes musical works of art.
She is a song maker who decided to perform her creations while waiting to make a name for herself, which is why her vocals are never worked on, which deliberately contrasts in the era of autotune.
Her first single "Personal Trainer" sounds like a physical and melodic workout to take her first step as a singer-songwriter.

Lyrics:
Giving me the silent treatment
But you know your words never made it through
Showing me your ice-cold shoulder
When your moves restraint to the fool of you
What I did, I'd do it again
I don't regret for the sake of you
We cannot always avoid the pain
It comes with the cost that we pay in full
What a piece of
You, son of a
You're a piece of
You, son of a
You're such a stranger to my feelings
Even if you claim you've no friend like me
You shut and leave to avoid arguing
Yes you should really be afraid of me
You utter your killing phrases
But these words write your own biography
You commit crimes on daily basis
'Cause ethics is not your philosophy
What a piece of
You're so mad at me for saying
For saying what I know you know that I know
If talking could bring something
I would repeat that a no is a no
If talking could bring something
I would repeat that enough is enough
I'm bringing down the curtain on this scene now
Now you can walk away and save your words
What a piece of
You, son of a

Lyrics:
I am the guest
Of an antique fest
While you're asleep
I move your things
If you listen
I whisper words
Since you wonder
I'm gaslighting you
I walk alone
On empty roads
I dance alone
With empty souls
I play the role
Of a phantom
At your request
I blow the wind
And to impress
I spread in thrills
Don't be afraid
You look afraid
I care for human beings
I am your friend
I'm not your enemy
I walk alone
On empty roads
I dance alone
With empty souls
I play the role
Of a phantom
I live in your home
I'm in the walls
When it gets cold
I fog up your mirror
I know your name
I have the same
You can't see my face
I'd be in disgrace
It's a secret
I walk alone
On empty roads
I dance alone
With empty souls
I play the role
Of a phantom

Lyrics:
Did you know
Gigolo
I'm playing on the beach, baby
I take you on a trip with me
We can put it on my credit
You get what you deserve, baby
Did you know
That was cool
Apollo
I am too old to restrain, cutie
You're too cute to be free, honey
You can spend it, it's my money
You're too young for my fantasy
I walk you, toy, I want you by my side
I got you boy, I got you in my sight
Did you know
That was rude
Gigolo
I am single in the city, baby
You'll become libertine with me
We deserve each other, baby
Have no shame, you're on my a-list
I walk you, toy, I want you by my side
I got you boy, I got you in my sight

Je suis en transe

Dans tous les sens

En France

Lyrics:
At that point I'm going far
'Cause it's all at war
Ain't no pain no remorse
Just read my memoirs
I'm the last crusader
Horses are unleashed
Enemy choose your weapons
Who do you want to hit
Guns! Now it's all at war
'Cause guns make it all at war
Blood! Now it's all at war
'Cause blood makes it all at war
No waste, no stray bullet
I shoot on purpose
Where are you sentinel
Who's the usurper
Won't open your present
It's a poisoned gift
Won't follow your descent
In the Devil's pit
Guns! Now it's all at war
'Cause guns make it all at war
Blood! Now it's all at war
'Cause blood makes it all at war
You're armed like a defeat
To society
What a way to retrieve
Your integrity
I'm willing to proceed
Call me a warrior
We're going to achieve
Point of no return
Guns! Now it's all at war
'Cause guns make it all at war
Blood! Now it's all at war
'Cause blood makes it all at war
Guns are all at war
Blood and guns are going to kill you
Guns! Now it's all at war
'Cause guns make it all at war
Blood! Now it's all at war
'Cause blood makes it all at war

Lyrics:
I'm gonna come to you in a magic
If any challenge from you
I can defy your logic
'Cause from my point of view, you're chaotic
I can't help myself from screwing
Being too erratic
That being said
I love you
I will show you
How I want you
Let's be insane
I chase you
I take you
I keep you
I'm gonna check on you in your practice
If you're really being true
I will decrease the panic
Then we define a new disharmony
Because me being with you
Is written so dramatic
Don't be afraid
I got you
I'll please you
I'm with you
Come in my lair
I warn you
I'll light you
I'll turn you
I'm gonna come to ya in a magic
Say what you want
I give it to you
I'll get it from you
And I'll fill it in you
Let's make it strong
No, I won't hurt you
I won't dirty you
I guarantee you
I'm gonna come to you in a magic
If any challenge from you
I can defy your logic
'Cause from my point of view, you're chaotic
I can't help myself from screwing
Being too erratic
That being said
I love you
I will show you
How I want you
Let's be insane
I chase you
I take you
I keep you
In a magic
Magic
Magic

Lyrics:
Book burning is the deliberate destruction by fire of books, done in a public setting as an act of censorship
Your lesson is an institution
Read your book, what you say is obvious
You listen, ain't no education
You're not wise, you're a prosecutor
45, end of war
Were you born
In Europe
You punish any provocation
Heard your speech, but you can't be serious
You banish any inspiration
Not your fault, you were not there at all
63 had a dream
Kennedy
Destiny
Your lesson is an institution
Read your book, what you say is obvious
You listen, ain't no education
You're not wise, you're a prosecutor
89, Berlin night
Die Einheit
East-west sides
You punish any provocation
Heard your speech, but you can't be serious
You banish any inspiration
Not your fault, you were not there at all
Year 01, September
New era
New terror
Your lesson is an institution
Read your book, what you say is obvious
You listen, ain't no education
You're not wise, you're a prosecutor
A musical journey in the haunting

Lyrics:
Night train
For a long way
One-way ticket
Takes me some place
Night fare
To pay my debt
Oddness
Leaves no trace
Nightmares
In the landscape
Ghost train
Makes a stop there
Night train
For a long way
One-way ticket
Takes me some place
The rail
Way station
Desert
That smells death
Somewhere
Closer to Hell
Farewell
I will be safe
Rock and combative.

Lay
Swear
Pray
Bend, lay and swear allegiance
Pray for your sustenance
Submit to the tenant
You owe him obedience
Join the new era troopers
We operate on Earth
We don't fight the soldiers
We infiltrate and turn
Run
Stop
Jump
Drop
Run, stop and jump like a log
Drop and dig with your hands
Enter our no man's land
No one hears your demand
Join the new era troopers
We operate on Earth
We don't fight the soldiers
We infiltrate and turn
Read
Sign
Bleed
Cry
Read, sign and bleed on paper
Crying tears of honor
Your body is no more
You're a shadow chaser
Join the new era troopers
We operate on Earth
We don't fight the soldiers
We infiltrate and turn
Come
Hold
Fold
Soar
Come, hold and fold in two parts
Soar like it's not so deep
Catch and hit the bull's-eye
You're here to set us free
Join the new era troopers
We operate on Earth
We don't fight the soldiers
We infiltrate and turn
Stand
Dive
Land
Hide
Stand, dive and land like a drone
Hide yourself you're a ghost
Disappear in the smoke
You will never be caught
Join the new era troopers
We operate on Earth
We don't fight the soldiers
We infiltrate them
We infiltrate them
An allusion to the urban jungle.

Lyrics:
Here comes territory wolf wandering in the wood
Here comes demolition man destructive in your home
Here comes the high plains drifter and he's not Robin Hood
Here comes the not funny clown, hide and seek in your room
Run away for another storyboard
Stay away from monsters of paper
Take a break
I know that you are upset
Keep it straight
Those characters are offset
Here comes territory wolf wandering in the wood
Here comes demolition man, destructive in your home
Here comes the high plains drifter and he's not Robin Hood
Here comes the not funny clown, hide and seek in your room
Take a seat
Now you're watching TV
Take a breath
Do you follow the story
Have a dream
You see yourself on the screen
Don't worry
You're the author of the script
Here comes territory wolf wandering in the wood
Here comes demolition man, destructive in your home
Here comes the high plains drifter and he's not Robin Hood
Here comes the not funny clown, hide and seek in your room
Pure pop and melody.
