French artist Sdante hails from Normandy, where he’s bringing together two worlds that don’t always play nice: guitar-driven rock and electronic production. His musical journey started like many others, with a deep dive into 2000s rock classics and a love for the guitar. But when he discovered electronic music and started experimenting with computer-based composition, the result was a sound that sits comfortably alongside acts like The Wombats, Fyfe, and The Kooks.
“A text that never comes, a smile that promised everything. Hope dies slowly, one unanswered message at a time.”
“Your Smile Got Me” is Sdante’s latest offering, and it’s a track that anyone who’s been ghosted, led on, or misread signals will immediately connect with. The production is punchy and energetic, mixing electric guitar riffs with electronic elements that give the whole thing a modern touch. The song tells the story of waiting for a text that might never arrive, of writing the perfect message, and that sinking realization that you were more invested than they ever were.
If you’re into indie rock with an electronic twist, or if you’ve ever stared at your phone hoping for a different outcome, give “Your Smile Got Me” a listen.
