Aurélien Hamm aka Saint DX introduces his debut album, Way Back Home. Although introspective and meditative, this album is more collaborative than ever: it features Ponko and Prinzly, with whom he co-produced Belgian rapper Damso's QALF album, as well as his friend and pianist Paul Prier and Jules Fradet. Renowned producer for Damso and Disiz, Saint Dx first came to prominence by accompanying Charlotte Gainsbourg on keyboards on her tour for the album Rest. His pop and electronic- original soundtracks inspirations can be called "ultra-classy pop" and romantism. His new single "Late" begins with an emotive, liberating cry and captivates with its potent synths.

Saint DX is the incarnation of the contemporary crooner. Singer, composer, and producer, his style reveals an obsession for love and an exacerbated sensitivity. Raised in the Buddhist spirituality of his parents and cradled by the soundtrack of The Big Blue (1988), Aurélien Hamm tells about the fragility, but also the beauty of our love stories, and the reincarnation of our wounds in the repetition of our days. Oscillating between English and French, swaying bass and ethereal layers, self-tone and naked voice, he cites Sade as well as Mylène Farmer, Better Person, Kanye West, and Prince among his influences. Since 2018, he has released three singles ("Regrets", "First Fantasy", and "I Still Care"), accompanied Charlotte Gainsbourg on stage and performed many of her opening acts. This nine-track mini LP will be followed by many concerts and marks the beginning of a very promising solo career for Saint DX.
