French Touch icon Sébastien Tellier officially reveals his newest track “Parfum Diamant” alongside a striking and minimalist COLORS SHOW performance filmed in Berlin. This single offers a glimpse into his ambitious forthcoming album ‘Kiss The Beast’ which arrives on January 30 through Because Music. The track explores adolescent memories and naive emotions through a sophisticated pop lens. Tellier works with an elite group of collaborators on the new record including Oscar Holter and SebastiAn to craft an intimate yet universal sonic mosaic.
The track listing for ‘Kiss The Beast’ features high profile contributions such as Nile Rodgers on guitar and guest appearances from Kid Cudi and Slayyyter. Listeners can dive into the full sequence starting with the title track “Kiss the Beast” followed by “Naïf de Coeur” and the electronic disco energy of “Thrill of the Night”. The album also includes “Refresh”, “Mouton”, “Romantic”, “Parfum Diamant”, “Copycat”, “Animale”, “Amnesia”, “Loup”, and “Un Dimanche en Famille”. This body of work marks a grand return for the multi-instrumentalist whose career spans cult classics like “La Ritournelle” and a memorable performance at the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games.
The intricate arrangements benefit from the lush strings of Owen Pallett and the precise production found throughout the twelve songs. Every melody on this record pulses with a refined and untamed elegance that defines the artist signature style. A major European tour supports the release beginning in February with multiple dates at L’Olympia in Paris already reaching sold out status.
