The digital world is forever growing. As Relaux grows with it, we are able to connect with artists on the rise. One surprise that has popped onto our radar is Besnine with the anthemic “Feel Alive”.

This track has universal appeal whether you’re a melancholy Bronco’s fan, joyful Seahawk, or just like positive music. Highlighted elements include playful piano, emotional guitar, and a heavy dose of lyrical optimism. After one listen we were so stunned by his euphoric offering that we reached out to Besnine for a quick interview.

Relaux: You have a great English, but are originally French correct?

Besnine: Thanks for the compliment. I’m French and I live near Paris.

Relaux: Where are you from and where do you work on your music?
Besnine:  I’m from a city near Paris. It’s called Levallois. I work in my little “home studio”. It’s not that great but for my level, it’s good enough.

Relaux: Did you first begin as a producer or through playing an instrument?
Besnine: I began playing drums, then I learned to play guitar and piano, and 2 or 3 years ago, I started producing.

Relaux: When did you first notice that “Feel Alive” was going to become so popular? Did it happen overnight?
Besnine: I didn’t notice anything. I just love this song, and when I listen to it, I realize the chance I had to compose it. While I was recording, I was just really excited about the feedback I was about to have. Today, I’m glad people like it.

Relaux: The vocals on this track are very inspiring and carry a clear message; how did they get created? Most listeners would have no idea you are French!
Besnine: I wrote everything in this song, and I’m as surprised as you are! I had a clear vision of the story I wanted to tell.

Relaux: Do you have any future goals or message you want to share with our mostly American audience?
Besnine:  I want to progress, that’s why I work a lot, and I’d like to produce different kind of musics.

Relaux: Thanks for answering our questions! Lastly, any other upcoming artist you recommend to listeners?
Besnine: My friend Edward Newgate, I really like what he makes. He’s from Yunizon Records, the label I just joined.

We are huge fans of Yunizon Records, having featured their artists before, so keep an eye out for Besnine as his music continues to make us feel alive!
