Adèle Castillon writes the way she speaks: unfiltered, witty and disarmingly honest. First known as one half of the duo Videoclub, whose anthem Amour Plastique became a cult hit, she has since stepped into the spotlight as a solo artist with a fiercely personal brand of electro-pop. Her songs trace break-ups, doubts, excesses and everyday impulses, balancing apparent frivolity with raw, straight-from-the-gut emotion. It’s modern, free-spirited pop that also flirts with rap, as heard in collaborations with Gazo, Zamdane and Jolagreen23.
