Brussels-via-Paris gabber pop duo ascendant vierge, which comprises goth-pop singer-songwriter Mathilde Fernandez and Casual Gabberz producer Paul Seul, has just returned with a new banger. Like their previous offerings, “Où sont nos rêves ?” comes with its share of mystery. It’s a visceral, Mylène Farmer-esque track to be experienced with your body and to be thought with your brain. Even if it’s not obvious in the first part of the track, “Où sont nos rêves ?” is actually a cover of David Guetta‘s “Stay”. Stay tuned cause their debut EP is on the way.

The song was actually released some months ago but they have just unleashed the accompanying visuals, which were directed by Kevin Elamrani-Lince. Of course, this thrilling new track is normally tailored for the clubs but with the current Covid-19 crisis, it’s better to party alone at home, like the two artists in the video.

Ascendant Vierge is a new transnational and trans-musical duo formed by Brussels-based lyrical goth-pop singer-songwriter-performer Mathilde Fernandez and Parisian DJ and producer Paul Seul, also known to be the co-founder of the collective Casual Gabberz. Before starting this new project, the two artists already connected in 2018, when Seul remixed Fernandez‘s single “Oubliette”.

In astrology, the virgin ascendancy is known for its prudence and its very orderly side. This sounds pretty ironic as “Influenceur”, their debut single, is anything but quiet and tidy. On the contrary, this is a flamboyant song driven by a gabber beat that pounds hard and fast and Fernandez‘ otherworldly, operatic singing. Sounding a bit like French gay icon Mylène Farmer who would be high on ecstasy, the track sounds both tortured and euphoric, making a bitter observation about social media influencers. There are more tracks on the way from this very unique up and coming duo. Meanwhile, put your fluorescent clothes on and sweat your soul away on “Influenceur”.
