Announcing his long awaited return with this unique message, Sébastien Tellier bounds back to the forefront of our collective musical conscience with My God Is Blue. After a memorable performance at Parklife in 2011, Australian fans can once again worship at the altar of Tellier when his fourth studio album is released in Australia on September 7, 2012.
Citing artists such as “Michael Jackson and George Michael” as musical inspirations for this album it’s clear that Tellier hasn’t lost his knack or desire for a pop pinch and serious dance floor appeal. Tracks such as Cochon Ville plays host to enrapturing rhythms and outlandishly catchy melodic hooks designed to entrance, mystify and seduce the listener as only Sébastien Tellier knows how.
It’s an album harbouring a prophetic philosophy and a vision of ideality, an album whose music seeks to not only entertain, inspire and charm, but also to create a community of like-minded individuals searching to follow their dreams, and find their true path in life. Starting things off in his usual manner, Tellier went about composing his newest creation in his studio in his apartment, before completing the record alongside reputed producer and Ed Banger stalwart, Mr Flash.
Throughout his career, Tellier has been inspired, almost infatuated with different mentally, spiritually and physically provocative subjects, with each such infatuation going on to conceive a vision and a theme for an album. From 2004’s Politics, through to the hugely successful Sexuality in 2008, Tellier has spent the past decade practising and mastering the art of igniting a flash of inspiration into a blazing inferno of realised creativity.
Released this week is the Sébastien Tellier innovative musical keyboard that allows you to create your own track & record it over the visuals of his video Cochon Ville.
