For SessionLab, Hortense Volle met the newcomer of French "electronic song", Hervé.

Portrait of a 30-year-old on edge whose first album,

Hyper

, is doped with lively emotions,

subtle

flows and synthetic atmospheres.

Hervé grew up in the Yvelines, between Versailles and Trappes, between French Touch and rap.

It was in England, within the electro-pop duo Postaal, that he discovered the new wave of the 1980s. Result?

His French "electronic song", to use his expression, is doped with lively emotions,

subtle

flows and synthetic atmospheres.

From the height of his 30 years, Hervé has done (almost) everything: cleaning man, seller of ice cream or women's shoes and even author for Johnny Hallyday.

Today, he shines his own titles with his first album,

Hyper

, whose reissue embellished with five new titles was released in February 2021, the same day he was crowned Male Revelation of the Year at the Victoires de la Musique.

Pretty, right?

Me, it was on the shores of the Mediterranean that I met Hervé.

In Marseille, the city where his idol, French footballer and actor Eric Cantona was born.

It was last October, at the Fiesta des Suds.

And it was, in his image and that of his concert, damn intense.

SessionLab: an intimate conversation in 3D audio.

A podcast to listen to with headphones.
