Since 2016, Rémy Poncet, aka Chevalrex, sits among the top new French songwriters to watch thanks to Futurisme (BEC 5156452/BEC 5156453, 2016), an intimate sophomore album which he plays all the instruments, and also critically-acclaimed by the press. Wondering how one finds his/her place in today's world while staying true to him/herself, Chevalrex offers his answers in this third album and leaves behind his minimalist compositions to raise his ambitions and push his music into a whole other dimension. Recorded this time with additional musicians and even a whole string orchestra, Anti Slogan compiles ten songs meticulously crafted in which the worlds of Jim O'Rourke, Vincent Delerme, Tindersticks, and Boris Vian collide, showcasing a level of refinement hardly ever heard in the French pop scene. CD version includes eight-page booklet.

Since the release of the album Catapulte in 2013, media have been used to describing Chevalrex' music as "miniature symphonies". For Futurisme, Rémy Poncet, the handyman that plays himself all the instruments, writes his own lyrics and even makes his own cover, has decided to keep the same path but meanwhile, has grown in melodic power and maturity. "I finally let my teen life behind, and from now on, offer me some peaks" he sings in "Aussi Loin". With Futurisme, there is reason to wager that Chevalrex will be one of the future pearls that will be used as a reference for those who will venture out on the roads of French pop. CD version comes in a two panel digisleeve with an eight-page booklet.
