My God Is Blue

Produced by Ed Banger’s Mr Flash, the record’s aesthetic is marked by choral grandiose whose mellifluousness is second to a larger aim of unification, part of Sébastien’s pursuit to form an ideal community he calls L’Alliance Bleue (The Blue Alliance). This communities purpose is woven thematically into the album’s 12 tracks, heard through their focus on spiritual transcendence and personal reinvention with the aid of Sébastien’s newfound spiritual leader, le Dieu Bleu (Blue God). It is through His aid that Sébastien believes we can recreate ourselves and find true freedom. Sébastien beckons a universal rebirth with his pop-manifesto, don’t get left behind...

The French songwriter and multi-instrumentalist's fourth album finds him once again transcending his reputation as a European pop curiosity.

On his fourth LP, the fittingly titled My God is Blue, Tellier doesn't just sing over his electro-baroque beats, he treats them like true duet partners, allowing rhythms to pulse and swell while responding with an equally effervescent speak-sing.
