The musician’s elegant electropop marked him out as one of the ‘cool French dudes’, before an attempt to literally crash the Song Contest fell badly flat. Now back with an adventurous new album, he talks about the man who stole his identity and why he doesn’t care for ‘good taste’ A few years ago, a stranger stole Sébastien Tellier’s identity. The impostor – sporting the musician’s trademark sunglasses and beard – posed as the Frenchman at fancy parties, nabbed free clothes from Chanel (Tellier used to be an ambassador for the brand), and even held meetings with bosses from Hollywood studios (Tellier has dabbled in soundtrack work). “He [also] took a lot of drugs like ketamine in front of a lot of people,” Tellier continues with perfect nonchalance from his Paris home, sunglasses and beard present and correct. The crime was only rumbled when a confused woman got in touch to tell him she’d been partying with “Sébastien Tellier” in France only to see on Instagram that the real Tellier was playing a gig in Belgium. This experience has been alchemised into pop gold via Copycat, a sparkly synthpop workout on his upcoming eighth album, Kiss the Beast. “My name you steal it / Hat and success,” Tellier croons for the song’s chorus over a chunky bassline, disco strings and synths that crackle and spark like fireworks. It’s typical Tellier, mixing the serious – things got so bad with the impostor that Tellier was briefly forced to show his passport at the school gates when collecting his two small children – with the playfully naive.

Posts from this author will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed. Volvo is starting to trickle out some details about its upcoming midsize electric SUV, the EX60, before its official debut January 21st. The EX60 will have an estimated range of 400 miles (or 810km based on the generous WLTP standard in Europe). That’s significantly more range than any previous Volvo EV — at least until the 434-mile-range ES90 sedan comes out. And the EX60 will be the first vehicle to benefit from the automaker’s new megacasting production process to reduce weight and improve manufacturing efficiency. “One of the things that we wanted to do was to create an electric vehicle with no compromises,” Akhil Krishnan, head of program management for the EX60, told me. “It shouldn’t be a compromise for you to choose to drive electric, so that was very, very important for us.” To that end, improving the vehicle’s range and charging time were chief among the goals of Krishnan and his team. They wanted to transform “range anxiety” into “range comfort,” meaning the driver would have so much range that it no longer becomes a hinderance — similar to how consumers don’t choose gasoline cars based on tank size. The interior looks to be as quirky as Volvo’s other EVs, like the EX30 and EX90. Image: Volvo But range alone is not enough; charging speed was also critical. Krishnan said that Volvo conducted extensive customer research and found that many EV owners felt forced to plan their lives around charging stops, often waiting 40 minutes or more. Volvo wanted the EX60 to fit into natural human breaks instead. For instance, if a driver stops for 10 minutes to get coffee or use the restroom, the car should be ready to go again within that time. The EX60 should meet that standard thanks to its 800-volt architectu...
