Apollone returns with “Pas la peine”, a hypnotic new single that dives straight into the aftershocks of a breakup, the kind that linger long after the last words have been said, the bonds we pretend are gone but still feel burning under the skin.
Built on a bittersweet groove, “Pas la peine” is a song for denial and release all at once: a melody to lose yourself in, a final dance with fading memories before letting them slip away. It’s an ending that resists closure, a goodbye that never quite says its name.
Driven by a slow-disco pulse and wrapped in melancholic warmth, the track turns emotional vulnerability into movement, an invitation to keep dancing even when the night feels heavy.
Formed in 2024 between Paris and France’s Basque Coast, Apollone is a trio united by a simple desire: to make emotions move. Their sound blends dance-pop, disco, French touch and chanson française, carried by a clear, intimate vocal, shimmering synth textures, and infectious riffs.
Drawing inspiration from 1970s and 1980s productions, Apollone thrives on contrast, radiant grooves meeting wistful moods, foggy slow dances colliding with flashes of the dancefloor. Their music feels suspended between light and shadow, nostalgia and momentum.
Named after a feminine reimagining of the god of music, Apollone sculpts songs where feelings waver and memories come alive at dusk, like the soundtrack to half-remembered dreams.
Shaped by the members’ past collaborations with artists such as Breakbot, Fred Falke, The Toxic Avenger, Alan Braxe, Cocoon, and the label Frappé Records, Apollone now merges French songwriting with late-90s electronic aesthetics, crafting music that aches, shines, and moves in equal measure.
“Pas la peine” is not just a song about heartbreak. It’s a place to dance with it, until the night finally lets go.
