With “Tout raté”, his debut EP, alster takes us on a journey where past regrets meet hopes for a better future. A seven-track dive, marked by striking contrasts. Loin de là' opens with a touching honesty: a letter of apology against a backdrop of nostalgic pop-rock, where he reveals his need to escape and the guilt that goes with it.
La Vague' is an intense, visceral track with 2000s overtones, capturing the inner storm and the urge to leave everything behind. Te taire' tells the story of a toxic relationship through the eyes of a powerless witness, with vibrant indie rock. The other four tracks on the “Tout raté” EP explore more of alster's world of disillusionment, where catchy melodies hint at flaws and doubts. Each track, in its own way, explores fall and wandering, with a lingering glimmer of hope. This EP is more than just a collection of songs: it's an authentic expression, a catharsis. alster exposes his flaws with honesty and a palpable urgency. A striking first project, like a rising wave that you can see coming... and then let yourself be overwhelmed.
