Sometimes, you have to uproot yourself to truly align with who you are, and with the world around you. It’s this guiding principle, one that has served him so well so far, that Thylacine has chosen to follow once again in his creative journey. The artist has once again stepped away from the familiar patterns of his Paris studio to create ‘Roads Vol. 3’.

William Rezé, aka Thylacine, gave himself the most precious resource of all: time. Time that’s so often missing when caught in the grind of touring and routine. Time that allows travel to become a real experience, where intuition can evolve into something bolder, deeper, more original. This album emerges as a mirror to that astonishing journey, a true creative vertigo born of deep reflection on his craft and how it relates to the shifting balance of the world around him.

A new musical odyssey that further defines Thylacine as a profoundly singular artist in today’s landscape. He'll be presenting “Roads vol.3” at the Ancienne Belgique (Brussels) on 31 January 2026!

Aime Simone is a Paris-born singer-songwriter and producer who has made a name for himself in music with his hybrid style, which he calls ‘post pop’. His songwriting blends the emotional and melodic depth of pop with the intensity of trap and club rhythms, underlined by elements of electronic experimentation.

Aime is now back with his third album REV, his most ambitious and conceptually rich project to date. The album is a bold exploration of his personal mythology, touching on themes of revolution, revenge, revelation and the fluid nature of identity. Through REV, Aime invites listeners to join him on a journey of introspection and metamorphosis through his powerful narrative and commentary on society in the allegory of the ‘underworld’: a world where the boundaries between light and dark, good and evil, reality and illusion, are in constant flux.

In Belgium, Aime Simone will be presenting ‘REV’ at the Ancienne Belgique (Brussels) on 11 February 2026.
