With Halage, Frànçois & The Atlas Mountains continues his voyage between dream and reality. Following the more contemplative Âge Fleuve, this new album is grounded in the present — carried by an electronic pulse and enriched by multiple collaborations (Clara Luciani, Yasmine Hamdan, David Numwami, Ëda Diaz). Blending indie pop, dream pop, and folktronica, Halage evokes movement, memory, and the flowing currents of our lives — a continuous stream where voices, synths, and organic percussion merge. Conceived as a journey along the waterways, the album moves against the tide of cynicism, tracing the thread of human emotion. Recorded between Le Château Vert and the Péniche Adélaïde, it balances fragility, warmth, and luminous resilience.
