THE BLAZE

FOLK

    Since their dazzling appearance on the electro scene with the video 'Territory' - a veritable aesthetic and emotional shock that won awards all over the world and was certifed a multiple gold and diamond disc - THE BLAZE have never ceased to redefine the contours of live performance and image. The French duo has established themselves as a global benchmark, as much for the sensory power of their music as for their unique visual signature, somewhere between contemplative cinema and raw emotion.

    After Dancehall and Jungle, two acclaimed albums that took them to the four corners of the globe and into the studios of Dua Lipa and The Weeknd , THE BLAZE now unveils 'FOLK' - their very frst live album, recorded in the majestic setting of London's Royal Albert Hall.

    'FOLK' is the synthesis of three years of sold- out world tours, major festivals
    (Coachella, Sonar, Roskilde, Rock en Seine...) and European arenas, and a magnetic bond with an ever- expanding audience. A tribute to bodies in trance, to collective communion, to the human warmth that only the stage can bring out.

    In keeping with their album titles, borrowed from musical genres that have become sensory manifestos (Dancehall, Jungle), 'FOLK' adds a human dimension. It's a simple, yet powerful word, referring to both a music of sharing and a people on the move. This live album is not just a recording: it's a declaration. An album conceived with the audience, for the audience.

    DRIFT

    At The Party

      This is the album of a lifetime. Or rather half a life spent, since the age of eighteen, in the shadow of recording studios. Under the multi- faceted pseudonym of DRIFT, 'At The Party' is an album by one of the world's most renowned and sought-after French sound engineers and producers of the last three decades: Renaud Letang.

      ManuChao, Chilly Gonzales, Feist, Mathieu Booagerts, Lianne La Havas, Philippe Katerine, Saul Williams, Jane Birkin, Seu Jorge, Micky Green, Connan Mockasin and Amadou & Mariam have regularly called on him, sometimes to the point of not being able to do without this producer with golden hands and rare hearing.

      For years now, Victoires de la Musique award- winner and Grammy Award- nominee Renaud Letang has been secretly preparing an album project with all his artist friends, in the basement of Studios Ferber. His Canadian accomplice Chilly Gonzales, with whom he formed the successful producer tandem VV in the 2000s, has encouraged him to release his songs, which he composes in the dark between two recording or mixing sessions. Renaud Letang sees his compositions as "drift music", with a wide stylistic palette - from sunny disco pop ('At the Party', 'Working on Me') to naive jazz ('Papaya', 'A Night in Waimea'), from futuristic hip hop ('Cosmic Drift', 'That's All') to dreamlike tracks ('Tres Gentiment In Waimea').

      "In the end, I made the record I had in mind, with a level of demand for official groove and sensitivity." Breathing in Californian music and collective energy for a fantasized musical comedy, 'At The Party' is a fascinating musical journey, to be listened to as much on a sunny day as after dark.

      The soundtrack of the summer with the cast of the year.
