The London-based French artist maps phases of transition on an 11-track follow-up to her 2024 debut, due October 30 via Scenic Route.
Vanessa Bedoret’s path from classical training to punk bands to the dancefloor doesn’t read as a rebellion narrative so much as a refusal to stay in one lane. That restlessness has carried her from a 2024 debut, Eyes, to About Time, an 11-track album due October 30 via Scenic Route.
The album’s first single, “See Saw,” is an electro-acoustic lullaby built around a diaphanous falsetto and the thrum of guitar and strings. Bedoret has said the track concerns how differently we perceive time passing — enjoyable moments vanishing while slower, harder stretches linger. The seesaw image isn’t just a title; it maps the album’s emotional logic, where glitching beats give way to haunting compositional soundscapes and moments of release.
Working in the orbit of artists like Astrid Sonne and Space Afrika, Bedoret has developed a language that treats electronic textures and acoustic instruments as part of the same conversation. About Time appears to be a document of transition, not just in sound but in life. The album’s title suggests a reckoning with timing itself — what arrives when, and what it asks of us.
