Hey everyone, this is a new playlist I’ve made with songs I’ve listened to a lot these past couple of months. Some of the bands have this particular wintery, night-time atmosphere that in my opinion fits really well with the mood of the season. Enjoy: nblast.de/NeigeWinterBeats

About the song : « despite its more accessible vibe, this song is actually the most personal song of the album for me. « Flamme Jumelle », which means « Twin Flame », is about the idea of loss in general and the difficulty of coping with the absence of someone you deeply loved.
