Zen is a 1995 album recorded by French pop singer Zazie. It was her second studio album and was released on 7 January 1995. The album achieved success in francophone countries and provided five singles (two of them were only released as promotional singles): "Larsen" (#38 in France), "Zen" (#23 in France) and "Un point c'est toi" (#24 in France).
Recording
The vast majority of the lyrics and the music of the album were written and composed by Zazie. However, Pascal Obispo, Phil Baron and Vincent-Marie Bouvot also participated in this album.
"Zen" was recorded in a cellar named Unrealworld Studios, as reference to Realworld Studios of Peter Gabriel where he had recorded his first album. This album was supported by a 42-concert tours throughout France, including three shows at La Cigale in Paris.
The music video for "Larsen" was produced by Phillippe André and won the prize of 'best music video' at the 1996 Victoires de la Musique. And for the song "Je t'aime mais", it was a tribute to Serge Gainsbourg.
