Or another alternative maybe not known yet "Kobaïan" ? :)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koba%C3%AFan
Based on elements of Slavic
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavic_languages>-Germanic
languages <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germanic_languages> and the
scat<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scat_singing>
-yodelling <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yodelling> vocal style of Leon
Thomas <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leon_Thomas>...
Vander said in an interview that he invented Kobaïan for Magma because
"French just wasn't expressive enough. Either for the story or for the sound
of the music."<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koba%C3%AFan#cite_note-Telegraph-3>
