Serge Devant Returns with “Solace,” Launches New Label and Legacy in One Cinematic Drop
A decade after “Fearing Love” etched its lasting imprint into dancefloors and film festivals alike, Serge Devant is back with “Solace,” a spiritual sequel, a cinematic continuation, and the first release on his new label, This Moment. It’s not just another track. It’s the next installment in a narrative that has lived quietly in the background of his artistry for ten years, now brought back to the forefront with both purpose and precision.
“Solace” reunites Serge Devant with vocalist Camille Safiya, whose voice again becomes the emotional backbone of the story. The production is lush, hypnotic, and deeply melancholic, a subtle, pulsing elegy to love that time tried to erase. But what makes this release historic isn’t just the sound. It’s the scope. Serge reassembles the original “Fearing Love” cast, a rare move in any genre, let alone electronic music, to pick up the storyline exactly where it left off, this time with a dream team that includes Luc Besson’s director of photography Tobias Deml and actors Eric Michael Cole and Christine Donlon.
The video is a meditation on what remains when memory fades, an arresting visual of two souls crashing into their forgotten past during a surreal late-night subway encounter. There’s no easy resolution, just the echo of something real left hanging in the dark.
For the dancefloor purists, the remix from Seth Troxler and Nick Morgan strips things down into late-night territory, preserving the cinematic heart while infusing their signature hypnotic energy.
With the launch of This Moment, Serge Devant takes a deliberate step away from the fast pace of today’s electronic scene. Rather than chasing trends, he focuses on craft and continuity. “Solace” offers a thoughtful return to a story that began a decade ago, proving that some narratives deserve more than a single release.
