He has already shared the singles “Refresh”, “Naïf de Coeur” and “Thrill of the Night” featuring Slayyyter & Nile Rodgers, and today, he shares one last preview of the album with “Amnesia”, a new track featuring Kid Cudi. Blending alternative hip-hop with avant-garde pop influences, “Amnesia” brings together Sébastien Tellier and Kid Cudi for a dream collaboration. A Tellier longtime fan, Cudi reconnects with the artist after sampling “Roche” on “CHUNKY”. Driven by a hypnotic groove, deep basslines, and Tellier’s hazy piano, the track drifts between ethereal rap and a melodic French verse. About the track, Sébastien Tellier says, “It is a song in which the boundary between love and dependence becomes blurred. Amnesia becomes a refuge and a prison. The lyrics play on this ambiguity. Every moment seems suspended. A feeling of emptiness and confusion fills the mind. Between ecstasy and regret, between desire and loss.  I invited Kid Cudi on this title because we have many things in common; he is an artist with the perfect raw melancholy to express the duality between love and dependence between reality and illusion. We share similar sensitivity and nostalgia, inner struggles and the quest for healing in common.” From Paris to London, with contributions from Oscar Holter (The Weeknd, Katy Perry etc), SebastiAn (Frank Ocean, Saint Laurent etc), Victor Le Masne (Paris Olympics), and Daniel Stricker, Kiss the Beast unfolds as an ambitious mosaic, anchored by Owen Pallett’s strings, Nile Rodgers’ guitar, and the appearances of Kid Cudi and Slayyyter. The album is where Tellier condenses and transcends his experiences: an extravagant love letter to pop, both intimate and universal. Alongside his new album, Sébastien Tellier announces his highly anticipated return to the stage in 2026 with a tour across France and Europe, including some already sold-out shows.

Since then, Sébastien Tellier has been far from idle, working on three film scores, releasing two EPs, producing for some of his peers, and delivering one of the most memorable performances at the opening ceremony of the Paris Paralympic Games in 2024 with his timeless “La Ritournelle.” Twenty years earlier, the release of that track on his second album Politics had already established Tellier as one of the most charismatic artists of the 21st century. A talented multi-instrumentalist, he has explored diverse musical territories ranging from pop and folk(s) to electronic. The result has been numerous tracks that have become cult classics: “Universe,” “L’amour et la violence,” “Divine,” “Roche,” “Cochon ville,” “Fingers of Steel,” “A Ballet”… All of this accompanied by his unmistakable signature style: long hair and beard, cap, and dark sunglasses. This unique dandyism has led him to collaborate regularly with major fashion houses, captivated by Sébastien Tellier’s untamed elegance.
